In the fall of 2025, there will be rare good news from the Japanese fishing industry-"Miracle saury".

In the past ten years, due to the effects of climate change and warming, the quantity and quality of saury have declined year by year. However, this year, due to extreme high temperature and extreme heat and sudden heavy rains, the fat and oily saury was accidentally created. Praised by wholesalers as a rare miracle in ten years.

During this period of time, saury not only has solid meat quality and rich fat, but it is also very delicious to roast, roast, and make sushi. Taking advantage of this craze, I ran three stores to share my comparative experience with you.

Meichuan Sushi (Taipei-Neihu)

Sushi $210

Saury sushi set $210

It is the most delicious of the three this time. Although the price is high, the seasoning and knife work are quite delicate.
It is rich in fat but not greasy. It melts in the mouth, and you don't even feel greasy after eating three passes.
Even the cutters in different parts are different, and the details are careful.
In addition to saury, seafood donburi is fresh, shrimp soup with steamed eggs is smooth and tender, and miso soup is plentiful and can be continued.

👉 The first place in the personal ranking is worth a special trip.

Kokisosan Japanese Cuisine (Taipei-Zhonghe)

📍Three eats $480

Three meals of saury for $480: including sashimi, nigiri sushi (grilled and original flavor), and fried fish bones.

Saury liver sauce is also attached, with a large amount and a cheap price.
However, the overall treatment method is too ordinary, and the fried fish bones even have a taste of fuel consumption.
The overall style of cuisine tends to be "vulgar and big bowls", which is more suitable for nearby residents or people who pursue high CP values.

If you want to taste fresh saury at a cheap price, this is a good choice.

Mummu Mummu (Tainan・East District)

📍One piece of six servings $650

IMG 8009 scaled e1759371366595

A piece of $650, can be made into sashimi or nigiri sushi, a total of six servings

The price is in the middle of the three, but the performance is more ordinary, the grilled version is less, and the taste is a little less surprising.
However, the characteristic is that it focuses on local Taiwanese fish species, and the relatively rare sashimi can be eaten, which is its selling point.

👉If you want to try different fish species, Mu Mu's diversification is worth experiencing, but saury is not a strong point.

Personal feelings

📌 Personal preference ranking
Delicacy: Mikawa Sushi > Kokisosan > Mumu

The miracle saury this time is really amazing, especially the best handling of Mikawa sushi, which makes people want to visit again after eating. It's a pity that there is still about a week or two left in the freshness of the seasonal saury. If you want to experience the once-in-ten-year saury pomp, you really have to seize the opportunity!

This wave of "miracle saury" probably only has one or two weeks left!
👉 Leave a message and tell me which one you want to challenge most!

This meal is fully self-financed.

about me

關於我

Choosy Chou

Hi, this is Chou Chou. Because I have always been "picky" about good things, I founded Choosy Chou to record and share the food, flavors and travel experiences that are truly worthy of being remembered. I am a food and flavor explorer, from street food to Michelin restaurants, from hidden bars to boutique cafes, I like to use my professional senses to taste, understand and compare, rather than just taking pictures and checking in. I have WSET Wine Level 2, WSET Sake Level 1, SSI Sake Navigator, and Coffee CSP Sensory Skill Foundation licenses. I hope to use a more systematic way to show you the flavor value behind a glass of wine and a dish. I have traveled to many countries such as the United States, Japan, South Korea, Iceland, and the United Kingdom. I believe that the most authentic language in the world is hidden on the table and in the cup. Choosy is not picky, but an insistence on the quality of life. You are welcome to join me in savoring the world with higher standards.

Keep in touch
