New Jerusalem Asian Eatery "Miyoka" Earns High Praise for Sushi

A recent review of "Miyoka," a new Asian restaurant located on Jerusalem's Mamilla Avenue, has lauded its sushi offerings as potentially the best under the kosher supervision of Rabbi Shlomo Machfoud. The reviewer, Galit Or, highlighted the restaurant's focus on fresh fish, delivered daily, as a key strength.

Or specifically praised the "Truffle Tuna Roll," a dish the restaurant proudly features, and noted the exceptional quality of the rice, comparing it favorably to the legendary "Yossi Pekin" restaurant in its prime. Other dishes that received positive mentions include the vegetarian spring rolls, a spicy chicken salad, and the pulled beef bao buns.

The reviewer also commented on the Pad Thai with beef, the Kao Soi curry, and the "Chicken Tropical," but emphasized that the rice, in all its preparations, was a standout element. The sushi itself, featuring nigiri with salmon, yellowtail, and tuna, and various rolls like the "Osaka Roll" and "Umami Roll," were described as expertly crafted.

Miyoka operates under the kosher certification of Rabbi Shlomo Machfoud. The review concluded with a hopeful wish for the new year, expressing a desire for consistent availability of menu items and continued culinary innovation in the kosher dining scene.
