Chow Down on Chawanmushi!

When you’re looking for something special for your sushi outing, our Bellevue Japanese restaurant can deliver in ways that the average sushi restaurant cannot. Try a bowl of our delicious chawanmushi, one of our warm specialty dishes characteristic of many of the finer establishments in Japan.

“Chawan” translates to “tea cup”, while “mushi” translates to “steamed”. Appropriately, a chawanmushi comes in the form of a steamed custard that is usually served in a tea cup. It is a hot, egg-based dish, similar to flan in texture but with a savory, non-sweet taste. We make our chawanmushi with shrimp, shiitake, ginkgo-nuts, and spinach to give it a complex, hearty flavor that goes well with any sushi meal. Come on down to Flo Restaurant to try it out today!
