I few weeks ago Travis and I ventured into a little restaurant on the edge of Stirling Hwy called Tsunami. It was a cold wintery night – we both felt like a sashimi fix and had heard many a good things about this restaurant. We arrived to find the place quite full, albeit it was a Saturday night. Fairy lights twinkled in the back of the cosy dark wooded restaurant. We sat at the front of the restaurant and inspected our menus.
Feeling quite hungry we decided to share a sushi and sashimi platter for entree, followed by Patagonian tooth-fish for Travis and a hitori sukiyaki for me. The tooth-fish was accompanied with enoki mushrooms, bok choy, kayaku gohan (mixed rice and vegetables) and leek. My sukiyaki was made of wagu beef, vegetables, tofu and udon noodles. We also shared a pot of green tea between us.
The platter was delicious, beautifully presented and satisfied my fishy cravings. We also enjoyed the mains, although Travis noted that the tooth-fish was somewhat oily (however he did acknowledge the health benefits of oily such fish). All in all the food was enjoyable, service was friendly and the outing pleasant. We were quite full and decided not to have dessert. We finished the night at our friends’ house, playing poker and eating mango pudding.
