They no longer serve Tuna (more than 3 years I think) 2. Choice is lesser than before... each year 3. Salmon of lesser quality 4. Staff even mixed up Fresh Salmon into Red Plate which meant for Smoked Salmon which is more expensive 5. Half to 3/4 Frozen of Salmon and Tuna (now no more serving tuna due to price cutdown I suspect) on top of your nigiri sushi In Penang, the floor service at most Sushi King outlets I had been to are friendly and the one at Gurney Plaza even trained foreign staffs from Middle East, Bangladesh/Pakistan which Sushi King may have opened some outlets there... :-P I know Tuna is expensive but if you want to eat fresh tuna in sushi and sashimi...Tuna is the best bet... cos you can't farm-breed tuna unlike Salmon which you breed and even added color to salmon's feed to get the desired color your client preferred. I'd seen the color chart before... it's like Pantone Color strips :-D Don't eat Tuna if you see streaky muscle lines (white/silver tendon lines) on the flesh... the flesh is not as tender from the soft part of the fish. Best if you eat Tuna in Sashimi... :-) If could go for Belly meat... the 'toro' OR Chu-toro - medium fat. Go for Sakae-Sushi...cheaper and better portion than Sushi King.

I know Tuna is expensive but if you want to eat fresh tuna in sushi and sashimi…Tuna is the best bet… cos you can’t farm-breed tuna unlike Salmon which you breed and even added color to salmon’s feed to get the desired color your client preferred. I’d seen the color chart before… it’s like Pantone Color strips :-D

Don’t eat Tuna if you see streaky muscle lines (white/silver tendon lines) on the flesh… the flesh is not as tender from the soft part of the fish. Best if you eat Tuna in Sashimi… :-) If could go for Belly meat… the ‘toro’ OR Chu-toro - medium fat.

When I ask is the food hard to prepare and all the manager answer me are " not hard to prepare but too many orders " . Every kitchen/restaurant I believe should be well prepared with this kind of situation ---> systematic in taking orders/making and complete ! Doesn't mean that particular day is busy and suddenly the kitchen is all jammed up with so many orders and the foods come out slow.This is not the way to treat customer.If you said floor service is bad due to crowded restaurant,I accepted that but kitchen jammed due to too many orders,I don't think so.If that is the manager explanation for me,sad to say your kitchen is not ready for this kind of situation then.One more thing,a particular floor staff behaviour is also acceptable.I'm looking for something that my nephew might have drop but she keep saying " don't have over there,if I said don't have then don't have la" in a very rude behaviour,she is not helping at all but some more asking me rudely not to look around again anymore..Honestly if I want to create a chaos scene I definitely can do that.I told her " I'm your customer here and doesn't mean when u said don't have I will stop looking around again.I found it and I told one of the staff who said don't have just now can ask her(defintely a female staff)to quit her job.This is my worst experience ever with a sushi king outlet.
