This might sound silly but we came here because and ONLY because of the amazing pictures of the green tea hotpot dessert XD But here we are!As soon as we got in there, I noticed a few tables of Japanese men in suits, seemed to be getting dinner and a drink after work (I am guessing they were Japanese because they were speaking it); and that some "special menu" were written in Japanese.

This might sound silly but we came here because and ONLY because of the amazing pictures of the green tea hotpot dessert XD But here we are!

As soon as we got in there, I noticed a few tables of Japanese men in suits, seemed to be getting dinner and a drink after work (I am guessing they were Japanese because they were speaking it); and that some "special menu" were written in Japanese. That was a good sign to me, I believe that if a restaurant can attract the local people to that cuisine, they must be doing something right.

Too bad we had to have dinner before we could get dessert XD, so we started with assorted sushi; this isn't one of their platters, we just picked and chose whatever we wanted: Cyu-Toro was the nicest, the rest were fresh but not outstanding.

 Unagi-seiro was one of the dishes regularly recommended by Openricers, so we tried it! I have to agree that the flavor was great, however this eel seemed to have more bones than normal… some of us couldn’t really battle with it and gave up…

 Next up was tamagoyaki, this one was pretty good, very soft textured and well flavored, my favorite savory dish of the night. Last one before dessert was udon soup with assorted veggies, can’t really go wrong with it, and it’s any regular udon you can expect; the soup base tasted like any instant ones you can get from those import grocery stores.

 Desserts oh desserts!!! Green tea hotpot was as amazing as it looked on pictures, it was watery if I compare it with chocolate fondue; it doesn’t hung onto whatever you dipped in it, but the green tea flavor was so SO rich a thin layer was enough (but of course the more then better XD).

 Unfortunately the night ended on a not-so-great dessert… this green tea ice cream with waffle was quite bad… the ice cream was okay, but the waffle was really stale… not just “oh it’s not crispy anymore”, but like “OMG I need to spit it out now”…

 Maybe we didn’t get the right dishes, but overall our dinner wasn’t all that great. Hopefully it will get better.
