WEEKLY DIGEST | APR 19
Kou Sushi's aburi mix

Weekly Digest is our weekly newsletter where we revisit what we ate over the past week.

We hope everyone had a great Easter long weekend 🐰. This week was a little lighter on eating out. We're aiming to launch the next issue of Ate It & Rate by the end of next week, so keep your eyes peeled.

We're also off to Singapore this weekend so there will likely be no Weekly Digest next week. Catch you on the other side 🛬..

This week we have:

Hifumiya
Kou Sushi

The Best Thing We Ate ⭐️

Hifumiya

The pork kimchi bukkake udon from Hifumiya was the best thing we had this week. Hifumiya is Perth's only speciality udon shop which opened in mid 2018. With the exception of Sunday, Hifumiya transforms into Jigoro izakaya (Japanese style bar) at night.

Fun fact: Hifumiya literally means one, two, three store and Jigoro means four, five, six. A Japanese play on words.

🍜 Pork Kimchi Bukkake Udon (L) $14.8
📍 Shop 2 ground level/100-104 Murray St, Perth WA 6000 (taken late December 2020)


What We Ate 🍴

We revisited Kou Sushi for family dinner. The favourite of the night was the nasu miso (miso glazed eggplant).

We also ordered a number of sushi rolls.

🔥 Aburi Mix $22 - grilled salmon (4pc), grilled prawn (2pc) and grilled scallop (2pc)
🍣 Aburi Combo $17 - grilled salmon nigiri (4pc) and grilled salmon roll (5pc)
