Still craving Japanese food for 5 days straight. "Haru 春" themed dishes at Sushi Tei.

This was the item from the seasonal menu which caught my attention. "Hanami Blossom Roll". Just as they've named it, this platter of sushi looks almost flowery. :)

My lovely ikura topped chawanmushi. I love the steamed eggs and the "popping" of those "balls" in my mouth.

Some tuna sushi.

The Hanami Blossom Roll. Hanami means flower viewing.

A nice hot bowl of udon topped with thinly sliced beef shabu.

Ok. I'm hungry. It's time to tuck in. Itadakimasu! :)

An empty main entrance to what is usually a long queue during peak hours.

I really liked this wall of lanterns carved with the name of the restaurant.

The seasonal Spring (Haru 春) menu.

You would think that 34 consecutive days of Japanese meals will surely be enough for me. ;) Well, it seems like I'm not quite done with my cravings yet. Here's day 5 of yet another Japanese dinner! 5 consecutive days. I can't explain the cravings btw, when you yearn for something, you just need it. :)

It's back to the basics for me with some sushi and udon. It was quite a late dinner too, so I didn't have to wait for any of the Friday dinner time crowds. My restaurant of choice was Sushi Tei. I find this chain of sushi restaurants to have pretty decent sushi overall. It doesn't quite manage to beat any of the specialty Japanese eateries but it is a cut above most of the Japanese sushi chains.

There was a seasonal menu for Spring (since that's the season now in Japan) and I thought it looked quite interesting and decided to order something from that. The Hanami Blosson Roll (lobster salad sushi roll topped with half-broiled salmon and pink pomelo) was what called out to me from that menu and I decided to go with it. The rest of the meal was a pretty standard udon with slices of beef shabu, some tuna sushi and my favourite chanwanmushi with ikura.

I left feeling really satisfied with having satiated my cravings. It's TGIF, and I wonder what the weekend will bring. More Japanese food? Or will my cravings be finally appeased? :)
