Sevruga at the Waterfront

My son and I both have a passion for sushi and dim sum. Every once in a while, mostly after he has completed exams, I take him for a "special sushi lunch". It's our special time together. This December we decided to go to Sevruga at the V&A Waterfront, one of our favourite sushi restaurants.

We were met at the door by two lovely young ladies, Aurora and Phillipa.

The service was good. Attentive, but not so that you felt stifled. The sun-dried tomato bread is delicious. So easy to just eat the whole basket.

Great wine list with a lot of choice. I settled for a glass of Pierre Jourdan Tranquille. A dry yet fruity wine with a pink tinge. Ice cold. Perfect for a hot afternoon.

We ordered 3 different kinds of dim sum. Served in bamboo steamers. Har Gau. Plump translucent dumplings stuffed with duck with honey and ginger. Deep fried wontons with beef, coriander and ginger. Pot stickers, my favourite. Crunchy yet soft. With lamb and XO sauce. The sauce that they serve with the dim sum is a combination of asian flavours and an absolute winner. I would love to get that recipe.  All were delicious and disappeared very fast.

We ordered a mixed sushi platter. All sushi is half price during the day at Sevruga and their sister restaurant Beluga. A great selection of very fresh, well prepared sushi. Salmon and Tuna tempura rolls, Salmon Roses, Salmon Nigiri, Tuna crunch rolls. Everything was delicious.
