Veroliz Foodie-Exploring Wok & Roll in Turrialba

On a rainy afternoon in Turrialba, which there are many we decided to take our birthday celebrations to one of our favorite sushi places in the center of the small sugarcane town!
With a warm welcome, we were seated in the center of the restaurant where we could appreciate the beautiful decor around us!
  Wok & Roll is owned by Freddy Chu & family and has been around for since Novembre of 2012 but has recently gained a lot of fame for it's exotic food not so common in Turriabla.

What did we try?
Our appetizer was delicious chicken and shrimp wontons with plum sauce, tender inside and a very clean presentation by our waiter.

Our main dishes included cantonese rice, a delicious fresh dished made with authentic ingredientes. This dish is found in many restaurants around Turrialba as Chinese take out is popular but with Wok & Roll we didn't feel that it was too heavy after eating large portions!
Wok & Roll serves great portions, we could not complain at all.
 
 We also tried Homemade Chop Suey, the vegetables were amazing, al dente as they should be and the noodles had an amazing flavor that matched the aroma that rose from our plate!





The best part was yet to come....

Wok & Roll is the only place in Turrialba where you can actually get sushi, many of the foreigners visiting the area stop and try the exotic menu!

We had a California Roll this afternoon and it was amazing, lived up to our expectations!





The meal was concluded with the famous Tempura Ice Cream, a favorite of most of the clientes we found here at the restaurant and definately a dish you are not likely to find in the area!
Vanilla ice cream wrapped in a crunchy cake like exterior!




Our finale to the meal was a nice hot pot of Green Tea!
Authentic tea leaves and all!!




All and all we can rate Wok & Roll is a great experience for anyone, the service is top notch the waiter is very attentive and gives special attention to detail when serving the plates, he carefully explains ingredients and method of preparation!

Congrats to Freddy Chu and family, you truely have a gift for amazing cuisine!!!
