After a hectic week of meetings and conventions, my colleague suggested that we should go and have a drink and food to relax and wind down. After work, he brought me to a bar at Haven Street, which was about 10 minutes walk from Causeway Bay MTR, into a small lane. Once we reached, i thought that it was just a normal bar, but he told me that it served quality Japanese skewer dishes as well.They offered a wide varieties of skewer food, fried dishes, side orders, small dishes and salad as well.

They offered a wide varieties of skewer food, fried dishes, side orders, small dishes and salad as well.
Kakutama Umeshu - Since there is Umeshu available, thus i decided to order one as sake was too commercialized. It was more on the sweet side and refreshing, but not much alcohol content tasted. It was easy to drink as well.
Grilled dried puffer dish - It was done nicely, as it was soft and chewy. Normally it will be abit tough, but it was grilled till it was charred on the outside, yet retaining the softness in it. Cream was provided at the side to enhance the taste.
Grilled cheese mochi - The skin was grilled till abit dry on the outside, but it was still very cheesy in it. The cheese inside was creamy and hot.
Fresh eel - I enjoyed this alot, as it was grilled till very crispy and hot outside, with some charred at the edges. The meat was soft, almost melting in my mouth. It was very flavourful as well as the chef added some spices onto it while grilling.
Grilled taro was white in color, instead of the usual purple color. It was not soft enough, as it was slightly tough. It was juicy though. Grilled ladyfinger was cut into small pieces, and it was juicy. Grilled green pepper was slightly spicy and it opened up my appetite.
Angus baby beef rib - The chef applied marinated sauce onto it when grilling, thus it was juicy and tender.
Pork belly - Spices were added to it when grilled, but the meat was abit tough and dry when eaten. It was flavourful though.
Grilled rice roll (cod fish roe) - As we were still not full, we decided to order a rice roll. The portion was quite huge, with seaweed pieces given to wrap with the rice roll. The fish roe was rich in flavour, helping to enhance the taste. It was abit dry though.
