this was my second experience here in six months. i’ve got to admit that i haven’t yet really been blown away byjapanesecuisine, though the bar has been set extremely high here.
both times we decided to be bold and choose our own selections from the menu, instead of the set degustations. notable dishes include - wagyu beef salad, tempura prawns, pork belly skewer, saffron cabbage and sushi platter..
the sushi platter was excellent, hands down the best sushi i have ever had - fish pieces were so thick and did not have any odour to suggest they were not fresh -thoroughly enjoyed!
my favourites had to be the tempura broccoli, duck giblets skewers and tofu. the plum drink was deliciously refreshing, made my night.
the setting was simple and authentic, the hospitality was polite - i wish they would have explained and gave us a bit more understanding of what we were ordering from the menu. the only criticism is that the restaurant is cramped and sitting in a tight position for over an hour and a half was enough for me.
expected the bill to be a bit less for relatively simple food - have had better overall experiences for $100 per head, especially as we were celebrating a special occasion.
