What I like about this place is not only its cozy setting, warm service but the thickness of its Sashimi. They are generously thick, especially their swordfish, fresh and crunchy. One of the recommended set is Chirashi Sushi Set if you are into raw fish. Few others like Ten Cha (Tempura) Soba Set and Cod Fish Teriyaki Set are also pretty good too.
Interior setting
One of the starter - Potato Salad
I like this starter a lot! Crunchy lotus root with braised mushroom and shredded pork which goes well with the sauce.
Ala carte sashimi, fresh and good.
Look at the thickness of the swordfish. Yes that's what I'm talking about. Sashimi haven. :D
The Chirashi sushi set also comes with miso soup and fresh fruits - watermelon.
Although I'm not into Chawanmushi, I actually ate half of it which this was actually not meant for me. :P
The waitress asked us to try their in-house recommendation dish of the day and we agreed. Sort of regretted when it turns out to be 2 pieces of grilled brinjal topped with sauce which they claimed is specially made. It was a very normal dish yet cost $8. :X
Shishamo, one of my all time favourite.
Cod fish Teriyaki set. I must say the cod fish is quite tender and tasty. The person who ordered this finished it squeaky clean. :P
Tempura with Soba Set. I like the smoothness of their soba and its refreshing taste. A good combination with fried Tempura.
This is a nice place for gathering or even dating. Reservation is recommended.
