2. This was essentially steamed egg topped with pasta sauce, which covered all of the egg flavour. Felt like I was just eating pasta sauce. Did not like it.

4. Deep fried shrimp taro root and chestnut. I liked it, but again, not very appetizing especially to be called kaiseki.

5. Grilled golden threadfin bream. Tastes average, but nothing special and doesn't look appealing to me.

6. Chicken and mushroom rice. Rice was ok, but nothing special really. I'd describe it as japanese style 北菇雞飯

Overall, for this price, food flavour and presentation, I would NOT recommend this to anyone.
