Revisiting Gassan for dinner and we opted for the Shio Omakase at $1988/person. The experience was pleasant and we enjoyed every dish from the bottom of our heart. Can’t wait to come again in the near future. .🥂Sea Urchin CocktailDecorated like a cocktail drink, on top of the lotus leaf was the Hokkaido octopus with a little bit of lime flavour.

🥂Sea Urchin Cocktail
Decorated like a cocktail drink, on top of the lotus leaf was the Hokkaido octopus with a little bit of lime flavour. After taking out the lotus leaf you will find Bafun sea urchin, cherry tomatoes, noodles and the jelly-like 尊菜 in it. I was afraid the taste of sea urchin will be overpowered by the soup but it remained sweet and fresh. Such a special welcome ‘drink’.
Sashimi:
🥂White Geoduck白象拔蚌 (right)
Very sweet in taste already so just a little bit of bamboo salt would be enough to enhance its flavour.
🥂Righteye Flounder鮫鰈魚(left)
Soft and fresh in taste, you may add a little bit perilla to it and that gave a mild scallion flavour.
🥂Righteye Flounder Fin鮫鰈魚邊 (middle)
Added some soy sauce and wasabi, it was very fatty and melt in your mouth.
🥂Smoked Bonito鰹魚
We had this before and again it didn’t disappoint. Especially loved the fired onions on the side and the yellow mustard seeds on top that gave a little crunch to it.
🥂Hokkaido Oyster
Oyster hid inside a jelly which added plum wine, perilla and potato noodles. The oyster itself was fresh and gave a lovely briny taste. Very innovative combination and very flavourful.
Sushi:
🥂Kue 九繪
Seasoned with salt and lime juice, it’s very refreshing in taste.
.
🥂Ishidai 石垣鯛
Aged for three days, it’s sweet and very creamy and tasted like Botan shrimp.
.
🥂Kinmedai 地金目鯛
Unlike the Kinmedai I had before, this was very fatty. The skin was lightly torched, nice with the yuzu skin on top.
.
🥂Hokkigai 活北寄貝
Very sweet in taste and it was torched to make it more aromatic.
.
🥂Chutoro 中拖羅
My favourite nigiri of the day. Mild yet slightly fatty flavours burst in your mouth.
.
🥂Otoro 大拖羅
It was torched to elevate the flavours. Again, I can’t resist the high fat content.
.
🥂Shima Aji 深海池魚
Another fatty piece that is very rich in fish oil.
🥂Ranou Egg with Buri in Sesame Sauce 赤蛋鰤魚中腩
The buri and the ranou egg complemented each other very well in a flavourful sesame sauce.
🥂Erzu Abalone 蝦夷鮑魚
The abalone was first cooked in a pot with sardine and kumbu for hours, it’s then sliced and served with egg yolk Japanese pepper sauce.
🥂Akami 赤身醬油漬
It’s slightly firm in texture, seasoned with marinated soy sauce.
.
🥂Hokkigai 北寄貝邊
It was first grilled in front of us and then added some salt to elevate flavours. It’s very bouncy and sweet in taste.
🥂Mackerel 鯖魚棒
Wrapped in a crispy seaweed to balance off the fatty notes from the mackerel. It was a party in the mouth.
🥂Bafun Sea Urchin
Now comes my all time favourite. Simply looking at the generous amount of sea urchin on top is satisfying.
.
🥂Snow Crab 松葉蟹
Filled with generous amount of crab meat, the taste was rich after mixing the crab paste together.
🥂Tamagoyaki
🥂Chicken Soup
.
🥂Yuzu Sorbet with Melons and Sesame Crisps
A bottle of good sake can’t be missed to pair with these dishes and we were happy to be treated extra glasses. Such a fulfilling and enjoyable dinner afterall. Returning soon!
