Zushi, Barangaroo

Among the line up of restaurants on the waterfront in Barangaroo is Zushi, a modern Japanese restaurant. With a view of the glistening harbour, we couldn't go past the Sashimi boat. Zushi's version certainly did not disappoint. The sashimi was wonderfully fresh and the variety reminded me of what you would find in Japan. The sea-urchin and scallop were some of my favourites.

Chef’s selection of assorted sashimi $120

Continuing on with the seafood theme, we had the Kingfish carpaccio with red grape and finger lime. The dish was vibrant, fresh and a delight to eat.

Zushi's version of agedashi tofu with Silken beancurd was delicious.

Crisp-fried silken bean curd, bonito flakes, dashi $15

The Teriyaki salmon was perfectly cooked and I enjoyed the charred leeks.

You don't often find wagyu beef in a sushi roll. It's hard to see why as it works beautifully. I loved the addition of the sweet potato batons on top which gave it a hit of sweetness and crunch.

Wagyu, asparagus, avocado, sautéed onion, sweet potato crisps, nashi pear apple soy, honey mayo $18

The Twice-cooked pork ribs was tender and flavoursome with the balsamic glaze. The little cubes of crispy tofu was a nice surprise and the dish had a great balance of sweet and savoury.

Great food and a delightful ambiance, Zushi is a top spot if you are looking for some Japanese eats in the city.
