Sushi papaia is a restaurant in Praça Vilaboim that is usually frequent by well dressed and beautiful people, but the most of them are teenagers. The restaurant was created by an ex-business man, whose loves Japanese food. He gave de name of it Sushi Papaia because his family used to have a small restaurant called Café Papaia.
The restaurant is big and it has two floors. The surrounding makes you feel very comfortable, because there aren’t only chairs for you to sit, there are also sofas, so people can choose if they want to sit in a formal or informal way. There is one thing that really annoys me: is the terrible smell of fish, but I think that all the Japanese restaurants has the same problem.
I always go there with my friends on the weekend and all the waiters already know us. The service is really good: it doesn’t take too long for the food to arrive and the waiters are always very polite.
Every time that I go there I order the same thing: uramaki of salmon, because I had just learned how to eat Japanese food, so I think that I’m not ready yet to taste other things. The uramaki of salmon is a helping of rice, with salmon inside. It’s perfect! sometimes I ask temaki too. Temaki is just like the uramaki, but it has the form of a cone.
The price there is not expansive at all, if you compare it with other Japanese food. I really recommend the Sushi Papaia, you won’t regret it!
