Glamourous sushi at Shiro

To be honest I have not dined here before but when I saw the new range of crystal sushi I had to try it because who does not like pretty things.
Shiro are so popular that they will now be debuting in London at 100 Liverpool Street in the summer!

The crystal sushi series are sushi topped with flavoured jelly which is clear and glistens.

The most impressive one was the rose.

I loved the crystal sushi because when you ate it, the jelly melts in your mouth releasing the flavour.
Here were what I had:
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Non alcoholic mojito:

Started off with lychee and mint mojito which was refreshing with a fragrant lychee taste and cooling mint.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Houren sou goma ae:

This was spinach served with a side of self grated sesame sauce.


It was amazing that there was so much spinach in a portion which tasted delicious with the thick sweet sesame sauce that had a fragrant toasted sesame taste.

Bluefin tuna with Japanese dashi jelly sushi $65:

I loved this one because bluefin tuna has a strong unami taste which went well with the dashi jelly that had a smokey flavour.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Deluxe scallop with caviar and sake rose jelly sushi $65:

This was simply beautiful with a light taste complemented by the rosy sake jelly on top.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Fatty salmon with fried garlic and yuzu jelly sushi $55:

It was beautiful how they put layers of jelly in between the sushi.
This one had a sweet citrus taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Botan ebi and uni roll with ume sauce on ponzu jelly $85:

This was a tasty one with strong and creamy flavours.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Yellowtail with kimchi sauce and Shochu jelly sushi $55:


This had a spicy kick to it.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Wagyu Beef with leek onion and black truffle jelly sushi $85:

Last but not least was the beef which was had a delicious strong truffle flavour.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Nameko no miso shiru:

This was tofu and nameko mushroom miso soup which was loaded with earthy nameko mushrooms.
