Hero Sushi — Restaurant in District of Canberra Central

FAKE! FAKE! FAKE! FAKE! And Non-Authentic Japanese Food!

Served and Cooked by Non-Japanese staff.

We need changes in legislation to protect consumers from these deceitful acts such as this place.

If a Chef has been trained in the fine culinary arts by Japanese Chefs in Japan or an Authentic Japanese cook along with a certificate that can be traced or researched for authenticity; then by all means then I would say yes.

You’re probably wondering, why does that matter? The reason why Japanese food prepared and cooked by real Japanese people have a higher degree not by chance that the food will taste better than people who are not Japanese.

Japanese food is a culinary art, the food preparation is perfect, the ingredients is perfect; they are very pedantic. Just like Germans who make cars, the way they operate and manufacture is better than the Americans. But Germans make cars that are German brands, not American... and vice-versa.

Just as Japanese food, you expect it to be perfect in some shape or form? You pay top dollar, you expect the same level of quality and experience. Instead it becomes a chance, rolling the dice that what you’re eating is Japanese food, but in fact, it is not.

Food was horrible, variety was just a joke, other than salmon, there were only salmons with different toppings. Lot of plates that was on there just can’t really be called as “sushi”. More like a Korean rice roll thing with so many weird sauce on it. The first plate I had, the rice was completely dried out. Probably it was the sushi that was on there couple hours back. The service was also poor. No greetings. No nothing. Walked up to a guy asked for a table, and told me just sit over there. The sushi chef and the employee was talking to each other over my head, the chef was behind the sushi train and the employee was behind me talking to each other in their language, was loud and just wasn’t a right place for them to have such loud conversation.

Last but not least, it’s just been overpriced for such rubbish food. Salmon, Salmon with different sauce, Salmon with tiny little baby avocado on top of it, Sushi wrapped up with rice with different sauces, Salmon in a slice, Salmon, Salmon, Salmon, Salmon, Salmon, Salmon, Salmon….. and more Salmon. Just salmons. And just endless salmons was going on there.

The best food I had there was the...

I heard Rebecca's conversation (just sat near the entrance). The waiter explained the reasons that why he did not put the notice and applogize or that. (He just couldn't find the notice paper, but he tried his best to explained every single customer as part time worker, even he was the only one work during Rebecca's time) I, as an Australain, local resident, totally understand the surcharge should be given to most restaurant on public holiday. I don't understand, a person who come to Australia, don't even emphasise our cultural background and local knowlege and keep complain about our system... She was asking to pay back the 10% surcharge which was$2.40. Me and young waiter was having a little chat after Rebecca went away. He was crying out "I very don't like people who are not even trying to understand our (Australia) culture, backgrounds and come into our land. That is the reason why, I renuciate my Asian passport and follow our nation(Australia)" After I hearing this, I totally respect to this guy as a human, not as a robot of workplace. So I decide to write this post to protect...
