Healthy Mel tries a Japanese diet......



Being a busy bee, I was in need of a quick lunchtime meal without disrupting my busy schedule. As I am on a pre-Christmas diet to prepare for the meat, crisps and chocolate gorge when the big man comes, I opted for Sapporo Teppanyaki for some sushi to maintain my low carb desires.

I ordered a whole host of sushi along with something new; a chicken Gyoza dish which turned out to be the best decision I made last week - it was all magnificent! The sushi consisted of Suzuki (sea bass), Shake (salmon), Ebi (king prawn) and Maguro (tuna) as well as California rolls of avocado, rice, crabstick, nori and cucumber (rolled in flying fish roe). It even came with Uzukuri which was fine slices of fresh fish (tuna and salmon).

The chicken Gyoza was a nice contrast of hot against cold and the dumplings which were full of flakes of chicken went very well with the soy dipping sauce and spring onion dressing.

Best bit about all of this (and there was a lot) is that I felt nicely full and not sleepy during the afternoon making it a great lunchtime option. I have eaten sushi in a number of restaurants in Liverpool and this was by far the best – and all within the hour!

As you can see from these photographs, it was not only a delicious meal but a picture too! Make sure you get trying this, you will be thanking old Mel!
