Food and You
Asahi Sushi is a great example of British Columbia’s unique multicultural cuisine and the variety that comes with it.
Asahi Sushi’s amazing menu will have you aching for more. With almost endless options one must pick between traditional Japanese recipes such as sushi and noodles, or the fresh BC regional dishes such as tuna and salmon. When looking at the entrance, first impressions are of a small, cramped restaurant but after entering, one will realize that it opens up to be spacious, comfortable and beautifully decorated with colourful Japanese art. Asahi Sushi is a family run business where the staff always greet you with a shining smile and a friendly wave. The atmosphere is inviting and unique as you eat in a booth with beautiful foreign music in the background that makes one feel like they have entered a different part of the world. I come here all the time with friends and family to relax and have fun.
A must have is the beef teriyaki, it is brought steaming and fresh so that you smell it before you see it. The tender beef with cooked vegetables and flavourful sauce is mouth watering to say the least. The portion size is perfect, just right so that it’s a fulfilling and enjoyable meal. One of the best things about the food is that it’s healthy, well done and an overall delicious meal that will have anyone coming back for more. If craving some classic sushi, there are many different options such as the Baked Salmon Roll, Dragon Roll, and the Alaskan Roll. Each is decorated with vibrant colours that mix to create an appetizing art piece almost to good to eat but the salty crabmeat covered with soft rice will have everyone ready to attack the food. After the meal has been finished, the staff will bring fluffy ice cream as a classy finishing touch to end the night. This wonderful restaurant is healthy, cheap, memorable and serves a great blend of Japanese and BC dishes that will have you craving for more!
