Min Wong: The Modern Eatery // Review

The weather was so gorgeous on Wednesday. But it was slightly more chilly than I expected. Thank God my boyfriend wore a jumper ahaha. (yes I stole his jumper).

So, to satisfy my jap cravings, I decided to go try out Modern Eatery with a couple of friends from badminton.

Modern Eatery, located in Fremantle, is a newly opened Japanese restaurant in March, best known for their Aburi Sushi (a method of light searing with a blow torch). The waiters were extremely friendly and the restaurant offered separate billing, which I thought was extremely convenient when eating with a group of friends.

Salmon Oshi Sushi $16 | Signature Combo $23

Oshi Sushi is a traditional style of sushi, where the rice is pressed into box-like pieces. The salmon oshi sushi was served with aburi mayo and a capsicum garnish.

The Signature combo consists of 2 ebi (prawn) oshi sushi and salmon oshi sushi, a salmon, tuna and hotate (scallop) aburi nigiri.

Fry Me To The Moon. $15

This was one of their most popular dish. Not only it has an interesting name, but a twist to the traditional sushi that we usually eat. Fry Me To The Moon consists of cooked salmon and cream cheese fried with breadcrumbs served with sweet chilli mayo and sweet soy.

Kamikaze Roll. $12

Slightly similar to the California roll, the Kamikaze roll consists of Prawn tempura, shredded crab meat and avocado served with aburi sauce and masago (roe, fish eggs).

This was my favourite dish but unfortunately, the serving size was too small.

Overall, the service was good and the interior of the restaurant was nice, but I personally think that the portions at Modern Eatery are too small for the price we are paying. $70 worth of food was not filling enough for my boyfriend and I. My friends were also still hungry after eating, so we walked down to Cicerello's to have fish and chips.

There was a petting farm outside Cicerello's!
