Fin Sushi Restaurant is a brand new Japanese restaurant in Rayong, and has opened with a month-long menu offering 50 percent discounts. So at the moment it is very popular.The restaurant is in a new building complex and is very clean and well appointed, with minimalist décor. The waiters are dressed in blue Fin uniforms, and Thai staff are busy behind a long counter cutting fish and assorted seafood. You can either sit at a table or sit on a stool at the counter and watch the staff prepare your order.Fin is going to need some fine tuning if it is to survive once the discounts end and the full price menu hits in, for the full price menu is right at the high end of the scale, particularly as it is in provincial Rayong and not metropolitan Bangtkok. My partner and I ate lunch there today and paid more than we would have paid for a similar full price meal at Fuji Restaurant at the other end of town.There is an over-offering of salmon on the menu at the expense of other varieties of fish; the salmon sashimi was cut in thick wedges, and needs to be more finely sliced; and the uni sushi advertised on its website was not on the menu. There is also an over-emphasis on sushi v. sashimi, which being a sashimi lover I noticed immediately.Despite this, the restaurant is trying hard and the staff are polite and quick with the service.it does not take credit cards, another drawback, particularly if you are not expecting to pay cash for what turns out to be an expensive meal.If you are not local, you may find Fin hard to find. Google "Fin Sushi Rayong" and it will take you to a site with a map which has a search engine. Type in your location in Rayong and it will come up with a detailed map of how to find Fin.(Note for TripAdvisor Reviewer: I have a photo. How come there is no place here to post it?)

2. Tuna Ichiban

Tuna Ichiban has been open for a year but it wasn't until today when a Thai friend took me there that I knew about it.What a find!It is in an air conditioned office block on Sukhumvit Road, the main street through Rayong. It is stylishly decorated with quality bowls, plates and accessories on the tables.With a flair for the original, the menu is on an I-pads fixed to the table, and on individual I-pads handed out by the waitresses. You scroll through the menu, looking at the photographs and prices and place your order.The prices were so reasonable we went a little overboard.We had a platter of sashimi with tuna, salmon, saba and white salmon, Aburi Salmon Roll, Gyoza, Unagi Nigiri, Ebiko Nigiri, prawn tempura and a whole barbecued squid.Everything was superbly fresh and flavorsome.The service was quick, friendly and professional.The kitchen and preparation area are open to the restaurant, which gives you a sense of well being when you see the immaculately white clad young Thai chefs preparing your orders. Interestingly, they are trained by a Japanese master chef from Bangkok, who comes down occasionally to make sure standards are maintained.The whole bill, with a jug of Ashahi beer and a large pitcher of green tea, was Baht 1,400. While that sounds expensive by Thai standards, it is about half the price you would pay at the other two Japanese restaurants in Rayong, so I have graded it as "cheap eats".

Since I last reviewed Fuji, two other Japanese restaurants have opened in Rayong. Today's visit back to Fuji confirmed that while it is the mid-priced restaurant of the three, it is the best in terms of freshness, quality and presentation of its sushi and sashimi.In fact, the presentations of the fish with the sliced and carved vegetables on the dish is so much like a work of art that we were almost reluctant to spoil it by starting eating.Today's highlight,for me, was the tuna sashimi, six thin slices of tuna so fresh it was almost jumping off the plate.
