Volcano Gunkan Maki

What this is

Volcano Gunkan Maki is a culinary masterpiece that combines the artistry of sushi with an explosion of flavour. This exquisite dish features delicate, hand-formed rice wrapped in seaweed, topped with a vibrant mix of fresh seafood and creamy sauces. Each bite offers a delightful contrast between the tender rice and the rich, luxurious toppings, making it a standout choice for sushi aficionados.

How it is made

Crafted by our skilled chefs, each Volcano Gunkan Maki begins with perfectly seasoned sushi rice, steamed to fluffy perfection. The rice is then gently shaped into oval gunkans, creating a sturdy base for the toppings. A blend of premium seafood—often including succulent prawns and tender scallops—is combined with a house-made spicy mayo and drizzled with a hint of tangy eel sauce. Finished with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and finely chopped spring onions, every piece is meticulously prepared to ensure harmony in texture and taste.

Where it is sourced

Our commitment to quality shines through in the sourcing of ingredients. Fresh seafood is procured daily from local Australian fisheries renowned for their sustainable practices. The seaweed used for wrapping is harvested from pristine waters, ensuring maximum freshness and flavour. We prioritise seasonal produce, allowing us to create dishes that reflect the best of what nature has to offer.

Flavour profile

The Volcano Gunkan Maki presents a symphony of flavours: the umami-rich seafood melds beautifully with the creamy spiciness of the mayo, while the sweet notes of eel sauce provide a perfect counterbalance. Each mouthful delivers a satisfying crunch from the seaweed, complemented by the soft, warm rice. The interplay of textures and tastes creates an unforgettable dining experience that leaves you craving more.
