1 handroll
Mini uni Rice bowl
Soup of the day
Dessert
The restaurant started out with 20 courses for the premium Omakase but they have now cut down to 16 course (maintained at the same price). Menu has not been updated on chope or the restaurant website. Felt a little misinformed upon finding out when I arrived. They used to include 3 sashimi and 10 sushi instead of 9 now. Proceeded with dinner nevertheless. Overall, was not too impressed.
The appetizers were onsen egg and seasoned scallops, followed by spinach for the vegetable. Didn’t feel like these items can be classified as premium. Some hits and misses for the sushis too. For this price point I must say I’ve had better and this experience was just disappointing to say the least.
The restaurant is cosy and can only accommodate about 20 max. Perhaps better to come for lunch where you can get decent Chirashi dons!
The 9 sushi:
1. Flounder edge
2. Squid
3. Flounder
4. Yellow tail
5. Scallop
6. Hiroshima oyster with yuzu jelly and ponzu sauce
7. Shima aji
8. Aka ebi
9. Golden eye snapper
10. Tuna with yuzu zest (Akami)
Handroll - unagi
The uni Rice bowl is pretty good with uni blended into the rice then topped with fresh uni.
Soup of the day: Miso soup (not pictured)
Desert: scoop of sesame ice cream in a cone
The ingredients used here are fresh, but what was worth mentioning is the pairing of rice crackers, which gave the sushi an interesting crunch to it. There was also a very light yuzu scent that came along, presumably from the sushi rice.
Yumm just thinking about the fresh botan and delicious uni. Entire course was gooood
A nice, cosy Japanese restaurant tucked within Oxley Tower. Great value for their $68 omakase. Was still hungry so chef recommended a maki - simple, delicious and effective. Left the place feeling full and satisfied. Will return!
Overall dinner was amazing! The seafood was Super fresh, esp for the price!!! I enjoyed this egg dish from the a la caste menu. Nomssss
Was half contemplating trying a small mouth and passing over the rest to my dining partner given my nut allergy, but I couldn’t stop myself at the first mouth. The walnut was extremely tasty and savoury and very well worth my impending eczema. 😂
