Kawana sushi - block m

Location:
When you come in from the gate next to the papaya supermarket on melawai, immediately turn right. This is the T junction at the big hotel that is on your left. Sushi kawana is on your right side.

Price:
On the pricy side but not outrageous. A sashimi moriawase was Rp 250k consisting of 14 pieces.

Food:
But everything was fresh, very fresh. Even the surf clam that is usually chewy was not. It was just crisp and has a great texture. Nothing was fishy smelling.

I also ordered a couple of grilled skewers. The cooking level was dead on if a little under seasoned for the chicken skin one. For the garlic, it was inconsistent. One was perfect and the other skewer was under seasoned as well as undercooked. 

Last, I ordered okra skewers. While the flavor was there, it was served room temperature. And it was limp. 

Service:
Pretty good and attentive if a bit overbearing. 

Recommendation:
Special occasion only. Kaihomaru provides a better value but the food here is definitely better.
