From the outside, this place looks like a holed-up shack. A shack that should have a "CONDITIONAL PASS" or "CLOSED" flyer from a city health inspector stamped outside its door.
You really have to have some insane motivation to cross the street to find out that it's actually open. 1/5 stars shouldn't be enough to make you do that.
Simon has a $6 sushi lunch special.
In Chinatown.
Sushi and Chinatown sound good, right?
China's pretty damn close to Japan.
The sushi couldn't be THAT bad.
Lest we forget that knock-offs from CHINA make headline news for being impregnated with lead, I'll tell you that this place is bad. I should have just killed a salmon with my bare hands and eaten it Bear-Grylls style right outside on Spadina.
I think my lunch would have been a pleasant experience that way.
The sushi is mushy and tasteless. The miso soup looks like fish piss and tastes like absolutely nothing. The salad dressing made me wonder if China also makes knock-off Kraft salad dressing.
I really don't know what I was thinking. All I know is that I'm bringing lunch from home for a few days to recover.
