From 27th April we are introducing two new Donburi toppings!

Donburi (Japanese for 'rice bowl dish'), is a staple of Japanese-style 'fast food' restaurants and makes for an ideal lunch. Shiki's Donburi are lunch-time only and at the special price of £4.50, including miso soup and pickles! The two new toppings are:

1. Una-Tama-Don (grilled eel and egg Donburi - see picture)
2. Spicy Salmon Don (fresh salmon in spicy mayo Donburi)


Please Note: These items are lunch-time only and we can only provide up to 20 Donburi a day.

The next Sushi Class is 13th May  from 19:00 to 21:00 (although it may extend a little longer).

Shun will be teaching you how to make sushi rice and prepare all the ingredients for hosomaki (thin rolls), uramaki (inside out rolls), and nigiri (oval shaped rice with fish on the top). As usual, here's a photo from our last class:

 
The cost is £45.00 per head  and includes equipment rental, ingredients, a free Shiki T-shirt (pink/black), sushi tasting and wine or sake tasting!

This past week saw the emergence of cherry blossom (sakura) in Norwich. You can see cherry blossom in the church yard just next to Shiki on Princes Street.

In Japan 'flower viewing' (hanami) is a national past time with mass picnics held under the cherry trees of major parks and a TV forecast of the 'cherry blossom front' (sakurazensen), which sweeps from southern Kyushu to northern Hokkaido each spring.

Be sure to catch sight of the Norfolk sakura before it disappears for another year! Read more about hanami at japan-guide.com. While the guide may suggest castles, temples and shrines, we certainly have enough churches in Norwich and there's even a cherry tree in the Cathedral grounds.

If you want to add Japanese flavour to you special event, Shiki is available for outside catering!

Last Saturday we collaborated with Mercedes-Benz of Norwich on Heigham Street, serving sushi to prospective customers in the car showroom.

If you would like to hire Shiki catering for anything from a corporate promotion to a birthday party, please contact us by email or phone. Pricing can be arranged on an individual basis (there is a minimum order of £500).

Donburi (Japanese for 'rice bowl dish'), is a staple of Japanese-style 'fast food' restaurants and makes for an ideal lunch.


It's quick, big and tasty, served with Miso-soup and a small side dish. Our current Donburi toppings are pork or salmon ... and it's only £4.50, making it great value at lunchtime!

Every Monday and Tuesday it's Sushi Night at Shiki! That means all-you-can-eat sushi for £24.50 per head (£22.00 NUS discount on Mondays). The offer runs every week of the year, so start your week in style with this healthy and delicious favourite!

Teppanyaki in its modern form is Western-style meat and vegetables cooked on a Japanese 'teppan', or iron griddle, creating a distinctive Japanese 'steak-house' taste.

The food is served at our special Teppanyaki counter and includes entertainment! Teppanyaki chefs are famed for their amazing bartender-style tricks and showmanship ... and our chef is no exception!


Take advantage of the Teppanyaki discount every Wednesday and Thursday. Teppanyaki (meat or seafood) is £16:00 per head.
