It's located near the SPC petrol station, and set back a bit from the main road. Look for the landscaped garden.
The interior is not very large, with a sushi counter seating maybe around 12-14 people, and tables for probably a maximum of 20 more.
The set lunches are mostly around $38 nett (ie. taxes and other charges all included) for the sashimi and sushi sets. They also have tempura sets ($27 nett) and unagi sets ($35).
All the set lunches come with a starter of semi-cooked egg, which is served in a mixture of soy sauce and dashi with a bit of yuzu zest on top. It came with wasabi too - I picked out about half, and stirred the rest in.
The egg was beautiful, particularly with the yolk soft and runny.
All of us ordered the chirashi sushi. The box is larger than it looks in the picture.
The slices of raw seafood (including 0toro, hotate, tako, sake, and a few other slices of fish with names that elude me now) were very substantial. The ikura was absolutely wonderful, as it was very very fresh. I don't usually like ikura, but I've really never tasted such fresh ikura, not even in Hokkaido.
The sets came with a miso soup that had been cooked with fish stock. It was so tasty that I finished every last drop of the soup.
The chrysanthemum and the other flower buds (anyone know the name?) were used to perfume the soy sauce.
The otoro was overwhelmingly melt-in-your-mouth good. The other slices of fish were really fresh as well. With large thick slices of fish that were really fresh, it was really really value for money. $38 may be expensive for 1 box, but considering the freshness and quantity, I would happily pay $38 again for this. I've heard that Sushi Yoshida is pretty expensive for dinner, so am just sticking to lunch for now.
The rice also came with tamago yaki, pickled daikon, ginger, as well as seasoned mushrooms and renkon. We were absolutely stuffed by the time we were done.
