How the aged mixed sashimi platter tasted

🌟 The aged mixed sashimi platter. On a large plate, salmon, white fish, and reddish fish were laid out neatly, cut along the grain.

Decorated with wasabi and lemon, the whole plate looked neat and bright.

The vivid orange salmon had a glossy, moist sheen and enough thickness that each piece was satisfying to pick up and eat.

The white fish had a clear, subtle color, chewed softly, and carried a calm, clean flavor. Thanks to the quiet umami you get from aging, it was good eaten plain or with a light dip in soy sauce or ssamjang. The texture stayed true to the fish while becoming noticeably softer, so it felt like something even a first-timer to aged sashimi could enjoy comfortably.

Placing a piece of sashimi gently over sushi rice let us enjoy it like a tiny sushi made right at the table.

Wrapping sashimi with ssamjang and garlic in a perilla leaf brought fragrance and umami together nicely. Comparing the flavor of each different fish piece by piece was fun, and the meal naturally stretched on longer. Being able to enjoy the generous sides alongside soft aged sashimi was the most memorable charm of Rigo Susan Jeonpo Station Main Branch.

Soju and beer. Slowly working through everything from the main sashimi to the warm side dishes, sitting with a neatly set platter in the comfortable mood of the Jeonpo alleys, even a complicated day felt a little smoother. After eating, it's easy to head over to nearby Jeonpo cafés or shops, so it works well as a full date course too.
