Kura Sushi isn’t premium, but for a budget sushi fix in Japan?
It absolutely does the job.
Affordable, quick, and low-pressure. If you’re just looking for something simple and comforting — it hits.
Bonus? Every 15 plates gets you a shot at a gacha-style prize.
🌟 Final Thoughts
Not the best sushi in Japan — but for under SGD15, with a side of serotonin?
Worth it.
