A New Signature: Tuna on Crispy Rice Arrives at Lemongrass

At Lemongrass Asian Kitchen & Lounge, our menu continues to evolve — shaped by technique, balance, and a modern interpretation of Asian cuisine. One of the newest additions capturing attention is our Tuna on Crispy Rice, a dish that reflects both precision and contrast in texture.

This is not traditional sushi. It’s a contemporary expression of Japanese-inspired flavour, designed for today’s style of dining: refined, shareable, and layered.

The Art of Texture and Balance

Tuna on Crispy Rice begins with sushi rice that is carefully formed, then lightly crisped to create a golden base — warm, structured, and delicately crunchy.

On top, fresh diced tuna is layered with:

  • Creamy avocado

  • Spring onion for lift and freshness

  • Tobiko for subtle salinity and texture

The result is a dish that moves between crisp and soft, rich and clean, offering a composed bite rather than a heavy one.

A Reflection of Lemongrass’ Modern Asian Direction

As our kitchen continues to grow under the leadership of Head Chef Nida alongside Sous Chef Chin, the focus is clear:Refinement without losing soul.

Our updated menu brings together influences from across Asia while maintaining clarity of flavour and disciplined execution. Tuna on Crispy Rice is a perfect example — contemporary, but grounded in technique.

Exploring the Expanded Sushi Selection

This dish joins a broader sushi offering that brings Japanese-inspired precision into the Lemongrass experience. Guests can also explore:

  • Signature Salmon Roll

  • Dragon Roll

  • Spicy Tuna Maki

  • California Maki

Together, they form a balanced selection designed to complement our wider modern Asian menu.

Designed for Sharing, Perfect for the Table

Whether starting the evening or pairing alongside cocktails, Tuna on Crispy Rice fits naturally into the Lemongrass style of dining — relaxed, social, and intentionally paced.

It’s a dish made to be ordered together, placed at the centre of the table, and enjoyed gradually.
