My friend Z told me about Reiki Small Field, which is a new Japanese restaurant in Sai Wan Ho. This restaurant is located across the road from the rest of the restaurants at the Sai Wan Ho pier, and it is small, intimate and cosy.As soon as we enter the restaurant, we are immediately wowed by the panoramic, unobstructed seaview - we almost feel like we are eating on a boat! (1) The lunch menu is compact but enticing. We order a fatty tuna rice bowl ($130), and there is a generous amount of tuna

(1) The lunch menu is compact but enticing. We order a fatty tuna rice bowl ($130), and there is a generous amount of tuna in the serve. We notice that the rice has a brownish colour, and the chef explains to us that he has opted for red, instead of white, vinegar for the rice to make it more healthy. He also deliberately puts very little sugar so the rice is less sweet than usual.
(2) The portion of the eel on rice ($105) is also robust. The sauce is well adjusted, and the eel boasts a delightful texture.
(3) The best part of the meal is the custom sushi set ($280), which includes 8 pieces of sushi specially selected by the chef. The scallop is impressively smooth, the fishes are excellently fresh and the ootoro sushi is utterly mouthwatering.
You can add $20 for a bowl of hot udon.
(4) Each lunch set comes with an appetiser, a dessert and a coffee. For desserts, you can choose from green tea ice cream, sesame ice cream and strawberry ice cream puffs.
The Japanese coffee is freshly brewed and nicely aromatic.
I didn't have very high expectations for this small neighbourhood restaurant, but I end up being very pleasantly surprised by the lovely ambience, the reasonable prices and the delicious food!
