Choo Sando & Omakase

 Saw this place on my friend's IG, and curiosity took over.

Luckily, this place is less than 6 minutes from the office.

There's a few seats available for sitting down.

Plenty of sando to pick from.  From those who are unfamiliar, it's the Japanese way to Sandwich.  Difference is that they use milk bread and holds up a sando very well.

Don't worry, they have sushi and couple don's available. 

Lovely array of Asian drinks and tea and what not.

Alright, have to go back to the office to eat.  Our lunch boxes comes with soup, house-made soy sauce, wasabi, and ginger.

Not only are we appreciative of the box is not your styrofoam to-go boxes, it's little bamboo box.  But it comes with a list of sushi to tell you what's what.

So there's Bluefin Tuna, Salmon, Yellowtail, Seabream, Sweet Shrimp.  Second row, Tai (porgy?), Scallop, seared salmon, snow crab leg, and eel.

What's so lovely about this besides the presentation is that every single piece are fresh, not fishy, and great quality.  

For dessert, we split the Fruit Sando's.

We got the strawberry and the strawberry-kiwi sando.  It was nice and soft.  The cream are made in-house, not sweet at all.  That way, it let the natural sweetness of the fruit comes thru and not like a cake icing.  The bread is nice and soft, you really think that you're having a cake for dessert.

The thing about Choo is that if you can pre-order, do it.  Otherwise, get there early before the doors open.  We went during the weekday, and arrived right at the open and items for rice dishes or sushi are gone.  So you can imagine how popular those are.  And imagine the food and quality are all legit for the price that they are, truly worth while.
