Miss Kasumi

Whilst I absolutely love Japanese, with the price of fresh raw fish, I often find myself going in, spending a lot of money, but coming out still hungry. However, Miss Kasumi’s $55 all you can eat menu definitely solves this problem. 

Situated in Kew, the venue itself whilst large, still carries with it an intimate oriental feel - think orchids on each table, cherry blossoms adorning the walls and a quaint little wooden bridge separating two parts of the restaurants.

Off the $55 all you can eat menu, the salmon carpaccio, mushroom and truffle spring roll, sushi and sashimi, gyoza, and prawn and vegetable tempura are all a must. 

  

However, definitely skip the baos - both the fried chicken and soft shell crab baos were incredibly dry, with the bao crumbling to pieces the minute they were handled. 

I would also suggest sticking with the $55 spread rather than venturing to the premium dishes (which cost extra)  with our lobster coming out over cooked and chewy. 

 

However, with so many delicious options on the $55 all you can eat menu, Miss Kasumi is definitely a place I would recommend if you’re in Kew and in the mood for some Japanese. 

Venue: 4/5

Food: 3.5/5

Service: 5/5

Value for money (a new criteria suggested by fellow diner Anna Poteri): if you stick with the $55 option - then 4/5

Total: 16.5/15

Verdict: love - get around to trying it soon if you’re in Kew and in the mood for some Japanese
