Solo sushi Japanese restaurant in Jung, Busan: Moshi Moshi Sushi

While looking for lunch near Nampo Station, I visited Moshi Moshi Sushi Lotte Department Store Gwangbok. Dining alone that day, I chose sushi I could eat instead of raw fish sushi and also ordered tonkotsu ramen.

Is it easy to reach from Nampo Station?

The restaurant is on the 10th floor of Lotte Department Store Gwangbok. It was fairly close to Nampo Station, and being inside the department store made it convenient to stop by for a meal after shopping or watching a movie.

What menus were available at the entrance?

I looked over the menu board at the entrance before going in. It had sushi as well as meal options, and I noticed a sushi set that came with sushi, udon, salad, and more. I did not order it that day, but I thought it would be worth choosing when I wanted several dishes at once.

Was it comfortable to dine alone?

A friend who had planned to come with me suddenly had something to do, so I visited alone. At first, I wondered whether going to a sushi restaurant alone would feel awkward, but there were quite a few other solo diners. The tables were also spaced comfortably, so it did not feel especially uncomfortable to eat alone.

At the time of my visit, there was also a notice saying that participating in a Naver receipt review would include two pieces of shrimp sushi.

The paper and utensils prepared on the table were individually wrapped, which felt hygienic. I was told that it was open from 10:30 AM to 9 PM with no break time, so I thought it would also be convenient to visit between lunch and dinner.

What can you choose if you do not eat raw fish sushi?

Because I cannot eat raw fish sushi, I chose beef, egg, inari (seasoned fried tofu), and fried shrimp sushi. I debated between cold soba and ramen, then ordered the tonkotsu ramen I had wanted that day, along with a Kirin draft beer.

My order was nine pieces in total: six beef sushi pieces, plus egg, inari, and fried shrimp sushi. They arrived neatly arranged on a plate, and I added the accompanying wasabi to suit my taste.

The fried shrimp sushi was especially good. It seemed freshly fried, with a crisp exterior and a plump, chewy center that had a nice texture.

The beef sushi was easy to eat with a little wasabi. I liked that, even though I cannot eat raw fish sushi, I could choose from several different types.

How was the tonkotsu ramen with sushi?

I ordered the ramen without especially high expectations, but it was more satisfying than I expected. The noodles were springy, and the broth was not too heavy or greasy, so it went well with the sushi. To my taste, it had a relatively familiar flavor and did not feel overwhelming.

If I visited again, I think I would pair the sushi with tonkotsu ramen again. It was convenient for a meal after spending time at the department store, and it did not feel burdensome to choose sushi and ramen while dining alone.
