Sushi Goshin by Akashi

Sushi Goshin by Akashi opened its 1st branch on the 2nd floor of Suntec City last year. The 2nd, located at the basement of Robinsons Orchard where HMV used to be the anchor tenant at The Heeren, was almost empty when I visited on Monday evening. Replacing the physical menu (it would probably be useful to also provide a copy) is an iPad at every table to be shared between two, which I found a hassle to "flip" especially when comparing items across pages. Did not try any of its sushi but had a bowl of braised pork belly noodle soup instead while my dining companions ordered set dinners served with miso soup, rice and watermelon slices. We also shared a very small portion of sweet puffer fish, reminiscent of bak kwa and cuttlefish, sweet potato tempura I could not rave about or fault and a seasonal whole fish sashimi  thinly-sliced and a tad warmer than I liked with sweetness accentuated by its dipping sauce instead of the familiar lemon slice, wasabi and/or grated radish.
