Frozen umeshu (plum wine)
Sweet corn kara-age
Spicy pork salad
Satsuma-age
Seared scallops with mountain vegetables
Assorted sashimi
Thoughts:
Sweet corn kara-age – lightly fried sweetcorn, sprinkled with seaweed salt. As the corn had been fried, it was chewy instead of juicy = Not bad
Spicy pork salad – sliced pork mixed with shredded vegetables and a Japanese chili soy dressing. A light refreshing salad = Good
Satsuma-age – fried fish cakes mixed with edamame and octopus = Not bad
Scallops – tasty scallops that were lightly seared and nicely flavoured with Japanese seven spice = Good
Assorted sashimi – chef’s choice of 10 pieces of fresh sashimi, served with an assortment of seaweed = Good
Overall:
Good service, a comfortable atmosphere, quality Japanese fusion (which comes as no surprise as the the owner and head chef of this place used to work at Nobu and Akachochin)
