Sushi On Little Bourke is at the base of the revamped 500 Bourke building (also home toSilk Spoon andMoVida Aqui) and specialises in a rarely seen sushi called hako,made using a wooden mould that compresses rice,fish and garnishes into a neat rectangular block that can easily be sliced into pieces.
Among the seven toppings on the hako sushi,there’s torched scallop with yuzu pepper;jalapeno and mayo;paradise prawn with nori mayo and rice cracker;and avocado,tofu miso and sesame for vegetarians.
There are also Japanese sandos,four hot dishes and a few snacks,plus oysters,sake,beer and a brief wine list for the business lunch set. The dinner menu omits the sandos and adds sashimi and more mains,including scotch fillet with soy-based steak sauce,tofu-sesame sauce,and charred lemon.
