Koh Grill and Sushi Bar

I finally tried the legendary "Shiok Maki" from Koh Grill & Sushi Bar!

Recently, there was a huge hype about this maki on Twitter & Instagram. If i'm not wrong, famous food blogger, Ladyironchef, was the one who caused the hype after blogging about it. 

As a foodie, i knew i had to try it since everyone mentioned that the maki's damn delicious - "Shiok maki is simply shiok"! After months of waiting, my babe Qiu & i finally tried it for the very first time! And it was actually an unplanned decision! We were so blessed to have avoided the usual crazy, long queue!

This is the legendary Shiok Maki! ($18 per plate)

Here's my humble verdict!

My babe & i were so disappointed!!! We had expected a lot more due to the hype.

It was not bad but really not worth all the crazy talks.

There was too much flavor going on that it backfired. I was unable to properly savour the salmon and special mayo sauce because the roe & unagi taste was too strong. Seemed like the unagi & roe team was fighting the salmon & special sauce team (which sadly, lost), lol. Unfortunately, i favor the latter more.

Defnitely not worth the usual crazy queue.

Ratings: 2.5 out of 5 stars

Shiok Sushi ($6 per sushi)
So the above cost us $12.

The Shiok Sushi on the other hand was shiok! Hahaha!

Surprising tho, this isn't really talked about?

I only knew about this sushi after a friend recommended me to try this instead of the maki. And i decided to give it a shot because that friend is a credible foodie, muahaha!!!

True enough, this was good! It was much better than the shiok maki! It had less rice, more salmon & more sauce! I liked the taste and portion, went very well together.

I suspect most people choose the maki over the sushi because this cost more? The shiok sushi cost $6 each while the maki cost $18 per plate (8 slices). 

The Shiok Sushi is a lot nicer to me!

Ratings: 3.5 out of 5 stars (loss marks cos of price & inconvenience to dine in)

*****

Will i visit the place again?

Well, i would only if i'm just around the corner, for the Shiok Sushi (no, not for the maki) and provided there's no long queue! :)

Please take note of long queue & long waiting time! Usually people wait for about 1-2hrs during peak hours and weekends!
