An overall total dining experience, I think the environment and service really makes this place special. The food is good and the ingredients are fresh. Though, having said that - Except for the sweet corn that was amazing, every other dish was only a bit above average . Nevertheless, I’ll 100% come here again.

Service:
The Service here is beyond amazing, we were served by a dedicated waiter who introduced us to his favourites and explained each dish to us as they were served.

There was actually a small problem with one of the dish served but he quickly replaced it with another dish on the house which was beyond what a normal restaurant would have done.

Environment:
The restaurant is a bit small meaning that the seating area were tightly packed. 🧐If they were to reduce the seating area a bit more ... it would have been uncomfortable but at this moment - the seating area is manageable but not spacious.
The noise level was quite loud in the restaurant, giving it a fun atmosphere. However ... however... they keep shouting : “FUKURO” to welcome each and every new customer. I think that’s great as a brand recognition thing , but sometimes a bit too much .... which can be quite irritating

I would suggest toning it down a little bit in respect to the diners at the restaurant.

Value:
I think the portion size is good and the price for the quality matches. I would say that this is a good price point.

Food/ Taste:
The food quality here is great, some dishes were very special and some were quite average.

I highly recommend the sweet corn and the Hamachi collar.

Here is my review of each dish~

Crispy Caramel Butter Corn: a highly recommended dish and also the highlight. It’s so yummy, it wasn’t too sweet but sweet enough to give that sugar coating the crunch. The sweetcorn inside remained juicy and soft.

Spinach with Sesame Sauce : an healthy option which remains very flavourful. We also highly recommend this too.

Hamachi Collar is our next favourite. The fish meat is so tender and soft, this section is not fat either. The sauce can be quite over empowering sometimes but because the fish meat is so good, we really like it.

The egg plant was okay ... we wish it had a bit more miso because the egg plant is massive , once you get into the middle of the egg plant, it’s flavourless. Nevertheless, the cooking of the egg plant was cooked very well

the ice cream was seaweed flavour with cherry blossom sauce. Sounds quite interesting right? Well the taste is even more interesting, it tasted a bit like salted Carmel but a savory version. It wasn’t too sweet but just enough to make it a perfect dessert.
