Suzuran

Overview

Suzuran in Camberwell is unlike any takeaway sushi place you've ever been to, for not only does it serve fresh and inventive sushi for a quick lunch or a hearty dinner, but it is also a Japanese market with a huge range of imported Japanese products.

Suzuran prides itself on having the most extensive range of Japanese food and products available anywhere in Victoria, whether it is cooking ingredients or a quick snack, that brand of sake or beer you can't find elsewhere or everything you need to make the perfect at-home ramen.

When ordering takeaway eats, the chefs will also make the food right in front of you, which is always one of the joys of Japanese dining as the theatre of Japanese cooking is second to none.

This place is famous among Japanese food aficionados in Melbourne and is considered one of the most authentic offerings in the city. One of the specialties here is the uni (sea urchin), and if you've been too nervous to try it in the past, then be sure to give it a go here first, as it is consistently delicious and prepared to perfection. 

The sushi sets include nigiri with salmon and prawn, while the nigiri vegetarian is perfect for those who avoid meat. Other options include eel, cucumber, pickled radish and fermented soybean, as well as the classic salmon or tuna.
