======================================
Food Review :
Sashimi : A decent variety of fresh sashimi ( salmon, tuna, yellowtail, squid, octopus... ). Excellent flavour where the sashimi leaves a melt-in-the-mouth feeling and texture. I tried the mixed sashimi set where all the fish were delicious and refreshing. The raw squid was slightly translucent, and it was sweet, crunchy and delightful. For the best raw squid sashimi, get those that are almost transparent, that signifies its freshness.
Tempura : I tried the prawn and white fish tempura. The batter was excellent. Crunchy, light yet flavourful, it complemented well with the filling. One of the best which I have tried.
Shabu Shabu : The shabu shabu beef was extremely light yet hearty. Cooked inside a vegetable mixed soup, the thinly sliced meat was tender and smooth. A note about the soup is the refreshing and sumptous taste during the first 30 minutes. However, as the amount of soup decreased and with no refill, the taste became salty but full of vegetable goodness. Personally, I did not like that part.
Others : The restaurant had other dishes on hand, like Agadeshi tofu, Chawanmushi, Potato Crouquette and many more. One particular dish which I favoured was the terriyaki cod. The freshness and silkiness of the cod was unmatched to any of those I have tried. A true skill of the chef who hails from Tokyo. If you go there, you certainly must try it.
