[Travel in April 2025]
After our failed salmon meal in Melbourne last year, we made a promise – our next standby holiday had to include a proper salmon dish. Who would’ve thought it’d take a whole year to make that happen? I actually didn’t plan to try this at first, too many people were raving about it, and I couldn’t help but wonder, how good can salmon noodles really be? But hey, it’s salmon… so we gave it a shot. Let’s see if it really lives up to the hype!

I tried this!
while cousin tried the best in the menu – they have tomato (haha)
Our first meal after 7 hours flight!
Perilla oil soba is really very nice! But I feel not worth the costing and queue (if there is)

HELLOSIHUI’S THOUGHTS:
Alright, I finally gave it a try! Honestly, it didn’t live up to the hype. I remember hearing about people queuing for hours just to get a seat, but with more outlets now, it’s much easier to dine in without the crazy wait. Still… I think the hype was overblown haha.
Sure, it’s kind of fun to see salmon served in thick slices, but that’s really all there is to it. You could easily buy good salmon and cut it yourself at home, it doesn’t quite feel worth spending a whole meal here. My cousin even mentioned not feeling full or satisfied after the meal. Perhaps the expectations set by social media were just too high.
So… I’ll pass. Not something I would recommend or return for.
(Which explains why our next stop was for some bread, more on that in the next post!)
HELLOSIHUI’S TIPS:
On the bright side, the perilla oil noodles were actually interesting and enjoyable, something different that stood out in the meal.
Important tip for travellers: They do not accept foreign credit cards, which was a big surprise. We were lucky to have brought cash, so be sure to carry some with you if you’re planning a visit!
