Oshine Sashimi, Chiang Rai

Oshine Sashimi, Chiang Rai - Freshness without traveling all the way to Japan

Chiang Rai, a small city full of cultural charm and beautiful nature, but who would have thought there is a place to enjoy authentic fresh sashimi close by? I, mr.hotsia, had the chance to visit Oshine, a sashimi restaurant that is the talk of the town in Chiang Rai, known for its fresh fish and friendly service that I just have to share.

After visitingWat Rong Khunwhich is one of Chiang Rai's important landmarks, I suddenly craved fresh Japanese food. I asked the locals around and was recommended that Oshine is a must-visit restaurant.

Restaurant Atmosphere and Getting There

Oshine is located in downtown Chiang Rai, not far from the Chiang Rai Clock Tower where I stayed at the affordable and comfortable Suknirand Hotel (read more atAffordable and Good Hotels in Chiang Rai City). Getting to Oshine is easy; you can take a motorcycle taxi or a taxi into a quiet small alley. Once you arrive, you immediately feel the warmth and dedication of the owner in preparing the food.

I like this place not only because of the fresh and diverse sashimi but also because the seating is good with not too many tables, creating a private atmosphere. It's perfect for those who want to escape the city's hustle and enjoy quality food slowly.

Freshness of Sashimi and Recommended Menu

The sashimi here is sourced directly from quality sea fish suppliers. I tried several types including salmon, tuna, and squid sliced very thinly. The taste was fresh with no fishy smell at all. What impressed me was the juicy texture of each piece that melted perfectly in the mouth.

Besides sashimi, Oshine also offers a variety of sushi and rice bowls with sashimi toppings. I didn’t miss ordering the salmon rice bowl with salmon roe, which perfectly combines the delicious fish meat and the crunchy texture of the roe.

For those who like bold flavors, the restaurant also serves miso soup and seaweed salad as side dishes. I can say these simple dishes turn the meal into a small happiness of the day.

Connection with Chiang Rai Lifestyle and Tourism

Eating sashimi at Oshine in Chiang Rai for me is like experiencing another side of Chiang Rai beyond visiting Wat Rong Khun or strolling around the city (which I wrote about in the articleStrolling Around Chiang Rai City). Here, good food awaits discovery and tasting.

Especially if you stay at a small hotel like the one I stayed near the Chiang Rai Clock Tower (read my review atChiang Rai Clock Tower) then take a chill walk at the walking street and finish with fresh sashimi dinner at Oshine, it guarantees a complete and memorable Chiang Rai experience.

Summary of Impressions from mr.hotsia

From my experience tasting sashimi at Oshine, I can confirm that Chiang Rai is not only about nature and culture but also offers fresh Japanese food at affordable prices and flavors that do not disappoint. This restaurant is perfect for those looking for a quality dinner after traveling and exploring downtown Chiang Rai.
