Hi all!!!! Once again, May&FJ are back with a food review! It's been a long wait and the both of us have been spending some quality holiday time ourselves which consists of: slacking, shopping, sleeping and nonetheless: eating!
There are really so much to eat and endless things to say when it comes to eating. Oh yeah, we know we have spoken up for many of the food fanatics out there! But who's to blame? Food is always a source of comfort and stress reliever! This is one of the reasons May&FJ decided to start up the blog! We are very thankful to you readers who have been viewing our blogs! Do keep on reading! It's never a waste of time to click on our blog to check out on our food happenings!
So here we go! We'll start with this sentence: Who says Marina Bay Sands (MBS) only caters to the upper half of the population with expensive food so expensive that you just feel so guilty on spending it? They do cater to people with reasonable budgets as well. We can almost just hear: Yeah, they did so, that's why there's a hwaker center there all glam-ed up just to suit the style of MBS. Nope, that's not it! Bay Sushi is here to offer you Japanese Food that would not make you pay through your nose just to have it in MBS.
Bay Sushi is a subsidiary of Todai (The one that serves King Crab legs as part of their buffet menu). They are located at the far end at B2 of MBS, just beside each other. You can always check out the exact direction with the lovely concierge there. But our first experience did not start on a happy note. When we reached there, there was no serving staff to bring us to available seats and hence we decide to browse on menu first. We had to wait for sometime and some noise making (ie. slight noises on why is there nobody who can bring us in? Do we have to barge in?) before a manager appeared from the back and asked if we wanted to enter. He also kindly brought their affordable lunch sets to our attention. With that done, we were settled at the bar counter as the house was full! (most likely due to the lunch sets they are offering)
We had : Triple Salmon Roll ($12), Golden Spider Roll ($11) and a Cold Soba lunch set ($15). The bill totaled to $41.02. We have included the menu here as usual!
Triple Salmon (4 Slices):
- The presentation was absolutely lousy with the salmon roe falling everywhere and the cucumber jutting out. (We chose a really nice angle to cover up the mess)
- But if you care less for the presentation, the whole slice together with the unagi sauce actually tastes quite good.
- You can differentiate the seared salmon and the raw salmon taste and it's really good!
- They give you generous amounts of cucumber and there is a strip of onion that adds to its savory tastes!
- Also the salmon roe is fresh and it bursts in your mouth!
- However, we feel that the raw salmon slice is slightly thin. Could have been slightly thicker. But you get what you pay for.
Soba Set Meal:
- The salad is very appetizing thanks to the salad sauce they used!
- The salmon slices are thick and fresh!
- Batter for the fried stuff is slightly salty and it's kinda thick for May's liking!
- The fried stuff consists of: Pumpkin, Sweet Potato and Prawn. We liked the Pumpkin one and the sauce provided as the dip is rather flavorful as well!
- As for the cold soba, the sauce provided is rather tasteless. It is not as salty as it was supposed to be. Or rather, after dipping the noodles into the sauce, the taste of the sauce is lost half way in the midst of chewing the noodles and you'll end up tasting the raw taste of the noodle which is rather ewww.
- The soba itself also lacks the bouncy and Q feeling. It is rather limp.
- The Chawanmushi given is smooth and it comes with a Japanese fishcake and a prawn.
Golden Spider Roll:
- The sauce captures most of your tastes buds. It is sweet, sour and spicy. Feels a little Thai-ish like those sauce with have with tofus in Thai restaurants.
- It is fried and hence very crispy.
- You can taste a the crab meat faintly and end with the taste of the soft shell crab. It is overall a very good combination!
Overall, with the exception of having to request for spoons for the Chawanmushi which they forgot to give, it's a rather fine experience. We recommend that you lovelies to try the lunch sets as it makes your money worth! (Maybe you should keep the Soba set off when considering, the rest seemed great from the reaction of the fellow patrons of the restaurant)
Note:
- GST and Service Charge is included
- POSB Everyday card gets a 10% off on A la carte
With this, we end our post! Thank you lovelies~! We love you all! Take care alrights! Weather these few days are rather weird. Till next time, ciao!
<3 May&FJ
