Marae Izakaya, Malvern East MELB

One of the last few places to tick off my list in Chadstone and one that is frequented by shoppers for lunch and dinner services. Service is questionable and some may be taken aback by it but I suppose its common in a lot of Asian outlets.

Salmon and kingfish sashimi - fresh and had the right thickness, in my humble opinion :)

Scallop nigiri - another fresh item on the menu.

All in all, it was a pleasant experience although would have liked to see a bit more variety. Did arrive past the lunch hour and could only see deep fried options circling around. Was a little bit more expensive compared to other shops in the mall but I suppose customers are paying for the sushi train experience here.
