Miraku - Wonderful, One of a Kind Sushi Omakase

I’m back at Miraku again! Since this restaurant had actually made a very strong impression during my previous dining experience here. And yes, the experience here is still as unique, refreshing, engaging and enjoyable as ever. The chef even makes the effort to show the pictures of the rare fishes featured 👍🏻

I love all the dishes of Sushi Omakase.

Appetisers to explore different kinds of taste profiles


Minced Toro with caviar is creamy, sweet, lovingly contrasted by the thin monaka cracker and briny caviar.


Fish Roe with Bonito Flakes has such interesting texture, being bouncy with lots of micro pops yielding mild briny juices when biting into it.

Mantis Shrimp, a rarity, with vegetables, is full of briny sweetness and features a nice slightly chewy texture.

Aburi Tachiuo is so good, with the sweetness highlighted by the char surface with roasted aroma. Scallop is bouncy and mildly sweet. Chutoro is pure indulgence with its melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Yagara fish, another rarity, is clear in taste, with an iota of spicy, zesty goodness to perk up the taste. A very good start for the repertoire of sushi.

Kinmedai has a wonderful bouncy texture and clean taste.

Shima Aji is unbelievably sweet. And this must be the lightest Shima Aji in taste, which is actually awesomely unique. 

Akami shining like a red jewel, is zesty and sweet.

Japanese bluefin, another rarity, features a total different taste profile from the fishes before it, which is simulating for the palates. It features a stronger oceanic taste and surprisingly melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Shore fish, another rarity, is lighter in taste and has an unique, firm texture.

Black throated sea perch creamy sweet with roasty char aburi is strength of this place

Akagai is very crunchy and sweet. I love this change in texture and taste profile of the array of sushi featured.

Otoro in aburi form actually works wonderfully with its melty goodness and an additional complexity in taste.


Uni sushi is of course good! I’m so happy to see this!

Sukiyaki A4 wagyu, expertly and lightly cooked in broth to maintain the juiciness, has this super sweet meatiness and is so well balanced in taste. Chef even adds in an extra sushi ball for this at my request.

Totokaku Roll is super creamy and briny sweet, accentuated by the crunchy zesty pickles. An excellent treat to indulge in.

Black Persimmon is super sweet. Best persimmon!

Thoughts: Exciting Experience!
