Uoriki Sushi Ikebukuro Ikehika Dining
At the end of the afternoon drinks,Ginza Kagari Echika Ikebukuro” I visited.
Since I still had some room in my stomach, I decided to go to the second restaurant.Uoriki Sushi Ikebukuro Ikehika Dining” I decided to visit.
The store is located near the ticket gates of the Tobu Tojo Line, near the elevators that take you to the Ikebukuro Tobu restaurant area, and is located in Ikechika Dining, which is not a food court but has several restaurants.
The underground area of Ikebukuro Station is a maze, so it may be difficult for those who are not used to it to get there. .
I visited around 17:30 and was able to enter the store without waiting.
Although it wasn't full, there were a few customers inside the store.
Now let's order.
Bin Beeru (Bottled Beer)
First of all,Bottled beer (638 yen)” I ordered.
The brand name was Akahoshi.
Recommended eight pieces of nigiri
『Recommended eight-kan nigiri (2,200 yen)” I ordered.
The content is ``Real tuna medium fatty tuna, white whelk shellfish, Spanish mackerel, bonito, red shrimp with head, snow squid, saury, spear squid (topped with salmon roe)” and comes with miso soup.
Now, I will introduce them in the order I ate them.
1st piece: white whelk
2nd piece from the left
It has a nice crunchy texture, but it doesn't have much chew and feels like it becomes soft quickly.
I could feel the sweetness as I chewed it.
The sushi rice has a firm texture of rice grains and a moderate acidity.
2nd piece: Sprinkle with squid (Ikura ikura)
Photo right
It has a crunchy texture and a sticky sweetness when you chew it.
I wonder how much I need. . ?
3rd piece: Snow crab
2nd piece from the left in the photo
The crab had a firm texture and fiber.
4th piece: Sawara
2nd piece from the left in the photo
The moment you put it in your mouth, the aroma of grilled food spreads out.
It's delicious and you can feel the flavor in the skin.
5th piece: Red shrimp with head
2nd piece from the left in the photo
The flesh was plump, sweet and delicious.
The color of the miso wasn't bad, but it had a pretty strong smell, so I didn't eat it. .
6th piece: pacific saury
2nd piece from the right in the photo
I felt the right amount of fat and strong acidity.
7th piece: Bonito
2nd piece from the left in the photo
It was chewy and delicious.
8th piece: Tuna medium fatty tuna
It was strong, but had a good balance of flavor and fat.
Personally, I like the flavor of muscle, so it's no problem.
Miso Shiru (Miso Soup)
Since it's a sushi restaurant, I was expecting something like arajiru or fish soup stock, but it was just regular miso soup.
Impressions
〆This is the second house, so this is the end.
The recommended eight-kan nigiri + Bin Beeru (Bottled Beer) was 2,838 yen.
I think it was delicious overall.
The tuna medium fatty tuna was especially delicious.
The tuna was good, and there was also a tuna three-piece set, so it might have been a good idea to order that.
The taste and quality itself is not bad, but I get the impression that the price is also quite high.
I felt that if it was going to cost this much, the taste would have to be this good.
I think it's a good store if you look at it on its own.
However, there is a lot of competition in Ikebukuro, and there are restaurants in the same price range that are delicious, and restaurants that are even better if they offer a little more, so personally, if I want to eat sushi in Ikebukuro, I would probably go to a different restaurant.
If I really want to eat sushi in Ikebukuro and other restaurants are crowded and I can get in without waiting, I think I might come back. .
