There is also an outdoor area so it should be good for happy hour.

There is a seasonal menu which consists of dishes recommended by the 2 star Michelin chief, Okamoto san. We've almost ordered everything on that list.

Shirako butter yaki: I did not know what to expect when I ordered this. The sauce was like oyster sauce mixed with butter. The shirako was slightly overcooked. I prefer the traditional Shirako with ponzu instead of this sauce, which I found a bit too heavy for shirako.

"Ise Ebi Hasu Tsutumi Iridashi" Deep-fried lobster wrapped in lotus root: This was pretty good. The fried lotus roots were like taro birds nest. This was mixed with a bit of tosa style vinegar (which tasted like ponzu), with gobo and yma imo. On the other hand, the lobster had just average umami and was slightly overcooked. At $480, this is unfortunately not something I'd recommend.

Wagyu tenderloin foie gras truffle sauce: ($480) This was highly recommended by the friendly Japanese manager (the one who has curly hair and who speaks fluent Cantonese).

The grade of the wagyu wasn't specified. Everyone liked the beef, which was succulent, tender and tasty. The sauce was also very good, which consisted mainly of what seemed to be teriyaki sauce with a hint of black pepper taste. The foie gras was also nice. The portion was generous but the surface could be crispier.

The mashed potato was excellent. Very buttery. Similar to the one I had at Robuchon. Recommended.

Seared abalone wrapped with Japanese paper "Housho":  The whole dish came in a piece of Japanese paper which wrapped the whole dish before being served. I suspect the purpose was to keep the flavour and moist of the dish.

The abalone was a bit tough and lacked taste. The uni did not have much umami either. It was slightly enhanced by the abalone liver sauce (essentially tasted like ponzu) and sesame sauce. The sea mustard (konbu) was dry and hard to swollow. Overall, just OK. Not something I'd recommend.

Buri Shabu shabu: The soup base of this shabu shabu was simply konbu and yuzu. The citrus taste was refreshing.

It came with 8 pieces of Buri. Literally just dip the buri in the pot for a few seconds and it's ready to eat. It was fun but not particularly tasty as the buri was not extremely fresh, even after dipping it into the ponzu or sesame sauce.

Steamed sushi: Essentially a steamed chirashi sushi with Ikura, crab meat, shredded eggs, Uni and a few slices of awabi.

The awabi here was far more tasty than the previous dish. The other ingredients were fresh and delicious. We thought the steamed sushi would have been very different from normal sushi but actually it wasn't. A solid choice but nothing too spectacular unless you've never had chirashi suchi before.

Kono wata steamed egg: This was contained in a daily recommendation menu, which wasn't brought to us until we asked for it at the end of our meal. Needless to say, I was not too happy about the service (especially when the waiter did not forget to bring it to the ladies next to us.)

This was intestines of sea cucumber with steamed egg. The egg was very smooth. At the bottom part of the chawanmushi was some kono wata, which is a highly acquired taste. It may taste like seawater for some. Worth a try if you are adventerous.

Grilled duck breast and white leek with sansho sauce : The grilled duck breat was over cooked and was tough and dry. There is a piece of leek embedded inside the duck, which was interesting. The sansho ( literally mountain pepper) taste was quite pronounced.

Unfortunately, they was no chemistry between the ingredients. Not recommeded.

Pineapple cream brûlée : This was very nice. A very nice cream brûlée with a very refreshing pineapple taste which came in a generous portion. The pineapple taste was just right, neither too sweet nor too bland. Recommended.

Service: I don't usually comment on service unless it's very good or very bad. In this case, it's the latter situation.

Despite repeating the order for red mine for more than 10 times and in three different languages (Japanese, Cantonese and English), they still managed to mess up the order - twice.
 

There was zero explanation of the dishes by one Japanese manager (not the one who spoke Cantonese), messy arrangement of dishes and utensils, and generally pretty rough and clumsy services.



Conclusion: The bill came down to about HK$800 per person, which I think was reasonable considering the amount of food and drinks that we've had (2 cocktails, 4 beers and 4 glasses of red.)

There were more misses than hits when it comes to the food. Overall, the service was poor. Neverthless, because of the reasonable price, I'll give the place a reasonable doubt and will not give it a crying face.

OK

【5.5 points out of 10】
