The oyster soup, whether clear or thick, was just one that everyone can make easily. It lacked the umami usually found in Japanese soup.The small oysters coming with the soup, fresh or frozen, did not taste particularly good. Quite bland actually.Noodles were white, machine-made and probably not made in-house.The soup was not hot enough to my taste.The blow-torch toasted chashu was done only on one side lightly. It’s not even warm, let alone melt in the mouth. One piece in every bowl of soup
The small oysters coming with the soup, fresh or frozen, did not taste particularly good. Quite bland actually.
Noodles were white, machine-made and probably not made in-house.
The soup was not hot enough to my taste.
The blow-torch toasted chashu was done only on one side lightly. It’s not even warm, let alone melt in the mouth. One piece in every bowl of soup. An extra order of three pieces didn’t change anything. The staff doing it was not really patient.
The two overcooked soggy shrimp wantons in the soup were puzzling.
Eggs had to be ordered as extra. Unimpressive.
Staff were nice. But they did not seem to focus on cooking as much as they needed to, and they did not mind chatting loudly in front of quiet customers.
Plain decor that was uninspired.
For $160 a bowl, it’s overpriced. Not ok.
With the benefit of hindsight, even if it were half the price, I would not try.
