Here’s what we had.
Appetisers: small dishes of tomato, octopus, Uni on tofu, 飛魚籽, beef tartare, 木魚絲, caviar on scallops etc.
Add on: jumbo-sized令和の怪物 oyster from 岩手縣. Loved its smooth creamy texture and fleshy sweetness.
Server then came to prepare our beef feast, first by oiling the pan with the wagyu fat.
Kobe beef first: we requested it be done medium-well given the fat content.
Dipped in egg (新紀元卵 used).
Gotta say, the Japanese Wagyu Lean pieces really paled in comparison in texture and taste.
Vegetables next. Didn’t really like the Pencil mushrooms and zucchinis but loved the mochi wrapped in beancurd bags.
Udon. Too full. Requested only one portion to be shared.
Dessert: tofu IceCream and matcha warabi mochi.
In summary: delightful meal coupled with excellent service. Taste of the sauce was just right- not too sweet.
