For some reason, Sims 4 CC creators love creating sushi meshes.
Yeah; I don’t get it either.
Asian cuisine is so much more than Japanese, Chinese, and Korean dishes. Pho, for instance, is a popular dish (that also happens to be a takeout favorite!) from Thailand. Chicken tikka masala and samosas are widely-loved Indian dishes, which fully classifies them as Asian food.
The lesser known roti canai from Malaysia and chicken adobo from the Philippines are beautiful traditional dishes that both look and taste good.
So I am adamant about not starting this article with sushi. There’ll be several decorative sushi dishes in this article, but I’m squishing them in the middle.
Let’s start with Japanese fried food and desserts.
1. Shibuya Honey Toast (& Other Japanese food) by Around the Sims 4
Individual pieces of karaage and korokke will leave your Sims’ savory cravings satisfied. To soothe the sweet tooth, they can try Shibuy honey toast or a simple Japanese konbini cake roll.
If your Sims can handle a little heat, treat them to a spicy Korean chicken bowl by josiesimblr.
It’s a cute, colorful package that looks so appetizing in-game! Not sure if it’s bibimbap or dak galbi with a lot of extra garnish, but I do know that it photographs oh-so well.
The sushi you’ve all been waiting for. As I mentioned, there are a ton of decorative sushi platters out there to clutter up your Asian-inspired eating area.
I like this one by Lulu265 because of how simple and straightforward it is.
Here’s another decorative sushi set that I really like.
Aside from it being edible (which is such a cool bonus), I love the obvious variation in the different designs.
A more experienced Asian food connoisseur would probably be able to tell the flavors just by looking at the colors. I just think all the sushi and sashimi pieces are looking a bit too tasty to be décor.
I personally prefer takoyaki over okonomiyaki, but don’t fret if you’re on the opposing team. Mochachiii’s custom set contains both options!
There’s a twelve-piece okonomiyaki set here – complete with sauce, bowl, and flavoring – and a two-piece takoyaki set. That one contains the actual octopus-filled dumplings on a plate and the machine you use to cook them.
This Tumblr may be a little confusing at first, but it’s easy once you know where the CC is.
Just click the heart at the bottom to download a bunch of decorative dumpling dishes!
There are also a couple veggie n’ rice bowls, two smaller dishes of dipping sauce, and bottles of Eastern sauce. The compressed file contains a .png of the decorative items included, so you can always check to see what you’re missing.
It’s a fairly tame East versus West situation wherein you can choose between HOODSIMZ4’s typical breakfast plate of sliced ham, grilled cheese, and full tomatoes or a typical Japanese rice dish.
Again, I’m no Asian cuisine connoisseur, but it looks like it could donburi, gyudon, or katsudon.
14. Korean Street Food Collaboration by Algu x SSIAT
The level of detail in this mesh is amazing. Seriously can’t sing enough of its praises. I can literally see the sprinkles of ginger, sliced radish, and chives.
Sure, the preview photo’s been edited for aesthetics.
But I promise you can see the seasoning in-game—even with Laptop Mode turned on!
This is one of the décor items included in jomsims’ Around Asia CC set.
It’s a dining room decorated with huge wall paintings and plenty of delicious-looking Asian rice dishes.
This is the third version, with shrimps, peas, and grilled turkey, but you can check the set for other Eastern cuisine clutter options. For instance, jomsims also included decorative caramel pork and nems (which reminds me of spring rolls).
18. Zongi/Sticky Rice Dumpling Deco Set by The Bleeding Woodland
As a big fan of onigiri myself, Chinese sticky rice dumplings sound divine.
Though I can’t tell what sort of meat or filling is inside them, these banana-leaf-wrapped wedges look like a tasty, portable meal rich with Eastern flavor!
