I had picked this sushi bar instead of another in the same district purely because of its Michelin star. I had reserved two seats at the sushi bar just a few days ago. You would soon know why it was so easy to make a reservation for a weekday lunch. There were just 9 seats at the sushi counter and maybe 2 more tables of 4 in 2 small rooms. A very small restaurant indeed.I asked the only server at the restaurant the differences between the $480 and $800 sets and was told that there would be 2 mor

I asked the only server at the restaurant the differences between the $480 and $800 sets and was told that there would be 2 more sushi of uni and toro while other sushi would be the same for the $800 set. In this regard, I decided to go for the $480 set because purely 2 more pieces of sushi of uni and toro didn't seem to justify the difference of $320+10%. The $480 set would include 8 pieces of sushi and rolls.

The tableware was quite pretty.

Sliced Pickled Gingers & wasabi

The sliced pickled gingers were pre-made and the chef could quickly take them out for serving. The sliced pickled gingers were ok, a bit spicy but they were sufficiently thin and crispy. Maybe a bit too watery. The wasabi was not spicy at all and was a bit tasteless.

This appetiser was served to us very soon after our orders. There was no introduction of the food and the chef who showed them to us wore quite an uncomfortable facial expression. Really a bit surprised of such service at a Michelin restaurant at this price.
Back to the food, there was really nothing special with the tomato and kombu. There was just very little sesame sprinkles which didn't smell or taste particularly strong. The vinegar was very tour though.

Luckily the chef who served us sushi did introduce the sushi to us! There was nothing special with this 金目鲷. A very common sushi at similar sushi bars.

The chef introduced to us that this 白虾 sushi had salt and lemon juice sprinkled on top. I personally found it a bit too salty with the salt on it, which couldn't really be balanced by the lemon juice. The shrimp itself was ok, which seemed sufficiently fresh but the texture wasn't particularly crispy/meaty.

This 墨鱼 was much better as it was quite crispy indeed.

This seasoned tuna could be the best piece among all today with the very refreshing yuzu juice added to it.

This seasoned 立鱼 tasted quite good.

This 鲛鱼 tasted similar to 立鱼 too while I had not come across this fish often.

赤贝 was fresh and crispy.

At the endorsement of the chef serving us sushi, the server served us miso soup at this point of our meal. It was quite a tiny pot. It was a pass, with nothing special.

The last sushi of the day was seasoned scallop. It really made me wonder why there were so many seasoned items?! I really much preferred normal fresh scallop sushi.

I had thought we would have tuna rolls but got this 干瓢roll instead. We were told that they were cooked melons! So it was another seasoned item of the meal....The seaweed was not crispy at all, although it did smell good. Other eaters ordering the more expensive lunch set got tuna rolls instead.

The egg was quite yummy. The texture was pretty good, with slightly thick crust and very soft and smooth interior. It was slightly sweet, cold and refreshing.

Dessert was a very plain normal vanilla ice cream with no choice. Desserts for the more expensive set seemed to be Japanese melons. Again, I recalled that the server had told me all other sushi would be the same except for the uni and toro sushi for the different sushi sets. So maybe he really meant just the sushi but not the rolls or the desserts. Anyway, the ice-cream itself was ok, although quite tiny in portion. I would have preferred something more Japanese like azuki or matcha or yuzu sherbet though.

Overall, service by the server was ok although there was only him serving all of us. He did help clean up some sliced pickled gingers accidentally dropped onto the table although sometimes he was slow in refilling our mugs. While one of the chef didn't seem to introduce the sushi he was serving and wore quite an unfriendly facial expression, the chef who served us was actually ok. However, I had definitely expected more from such a one Michelin starred restaurant. Most importantly, I was really shocked at the number of seasoned dish they served in 1 single meal. There were definitely way better sushi bars in the same district at a similar price. I would not recommend this place and would not come back again.

By the way, my stomach started grumbling again around 3p.m. after lunch...
