Ordering the salmon sashimi platter

What I had was~

Salmon sashimi platter

I had the salmon sashimi platter! Since they bring in fresh live fish from Busan every morning, the salmon was really fresh and melted in my mouth — delicious~

The side dishes were really good too! The buckwheat noodles were tasty as well~ Eating all these great sides alongside seasonal fish like salmon, flounder, rockfish, and Spanish mackerel was so satisfying! And since the seasonal fish is aged at the optimal temperature, the deep, rich flavor of the fish itself gets maximized — so delicious!

So many sides to go with it

The fried snacks and salad were great too — the accompanying dishes were varied and special!

At Rigo Susan Jeonpo Station Main Branch, tteokbokki and California rolls also come out as sides~ Salad made with fresh vegetables and seafood, crispy fried snacks, and even a warm soup dish!

The dubu kimchi (tofu with stir-fried kimchi) and okonomiyaki were also made with real care, and they paired well with the aged sashimi!

I love salmon, so at Rigo Susan Jeonpo Station Main Branch I had the aged salmon sashimi! Through the aging process, the salmon becomes even softer and its umami gets even better! You could really feel the freshness of the sea, which made it even better!

Thanks to the careful aging process, it tasted really good~ It was both nutty and clean-tasting, so it was delicious. It wasn't overly fatty at all — the salmon just softly melted in my mouth~

Look at that salmon color~ Such a pretty orange hue! It'd go well with all kinds of drinks too~

The salmon was so soft that I think it'd be great to enjoy comfortably with friends, a partner, or family — anyone really.
