Run Run Sushi

Bought the Expert level Sashimi Noodles at $69 (~550g) which came with two bowls of sauce (which is the same size as the sushi). It was nice and fresh but pricey. Plus the sauce was a waste, didn't even used half a bowl of sauce to finish the noodles. Not a huge fan of sauce as it was too sour to go with the noodles.

Tried the Sashimi Noodles Mukbang Set (Salmon sashimi noodles) (intermediate set for $52). The sashimi was advertised to be air-flown daily, but I could still feel quite a bit of fishy taste from the fish. Sauce was good on a first dip, but bland thereafter. The source doesn’t mix well with the fish and soon the taste was over-powered by the fishy taste. For the same price, I could probably get a pretty varied sashimi moriawase elsewhere. Its not all bad (still alright taste, and therefore the 2 stars), but for the hype, value for money and taste, will probably go for something else in the future.

I'm reviewing solely for the sashimi noodles that are being sold. Although there is a certain novelty of the long, long, slices of salmon, after the first few bites the novelty is lost and sashimi noodles become... Sashimi. And at SGD32.50 for 250g (the smallest size), it is almost double of what you need to pay to buy salmon sashimi blocks from Donki. The Ponzu sauce is a hit or miss (it's a bit too sour for me, but the wife loves it). And there is a huge wastage of the sauce as well; a full container is provided when you would probably only consume 1/5 of that when you dip the noodles in the sauce. (It's definitely not to be consumed as soup as it's too sour/salty!)

Need a sushi fix? Run to run run sushi! I used to go for brand name sushi joints for my sashimi pick-me-up but honestly, nothing can beat run run's generous portions and freshness. I especially love their onigirazu (imagine a sushi sandwich) because it is always packed to the brim with tasty goodness. They have a pretty inventive take on Cheesy Chicken Katsu Tempura Sushi too, which is actually a hot and crispy fried sushi with melted cheese! The staff are friendly too and would recommend great picks for customised maki rolls.
