The sashimi is fresh but personally, i dont find it fantastic except for the yellow tail

Tebasaki (Mid chicken wing)
Slightly tasteless.

Moro-Kyu (Cucumber with miso paste)
Refreshing.


Saba Shioyaki (Mackerel)
Very nicely done.
The fish is sweet, juicy and tender whilst the skin is crispy.


Shishamo (Capelins)
Better if grilled longer. Not crispy enough


Yakitori (Chicken)


Oden (Japanese yong tau foo)
i dun like this


Tomato bacon maki
Not bad, nice combi


Hiyayako (Cold tofu)
prefer the agedashi tofu (fried)


Chawanmushi


Ebi + Shitake Tempura
Hmm something is wrong with the flour, just cant put a word to it


Hiyashi tomato
None of it is sweet.


Complimentry soup
(Prolly to fill our tummy so we wont eat that much kekeke I wont fall for the free stuff!!!)


Potato Croquette
Worse croquette i ever had till now...
Outer layer is hard and the inside is not the creamy sort.


Sake Onigiri (Rice ball with salmon flakes)
The seaweed looks like it got drenched by the rain
Ratio of rice : salmon flakes is 20 : 1
The worse thing is the rice dont even taste good


Grape with shochu($9)
Not a bad choice if you dont want beer

Calamari $8
I should have listened to those reviews i have read about the calamari
Though we finished it but it is really bad (bad karma to waste food)
The flour is not crispy, thou thin and it just taste bad (no other words to describe)
The squid takes us forever to chew
And im sure it doesnt look photogenic as well


Eggs Benny $16

The outlook is beautiful!!
Eggs are nicely done, yolk aint overcooked
pity the sauce is tasteless
 

Spinach Tamago $16
This is GOOD!
 The egg, spinach, sauce and plain bread goes hand in hand
Without the bread, the eggs are too sweet on its own
Its something different from your everyday big breakfast or pancakes
Try this if you havent!
 

Earl Grey $7
