disappointing. not sure if they're doing well for lunch but for dinner, the same amount of $$ can serve you better elsewhere.omasake dinner:1. we ordered a bottle of hot sake but turns out that it tastes like hot water. the explanation given was that they "overcooked" the bottle of sake in the microwave and so the alcohol has all been evaporated. we wonder why it is heated in a microwave but anyhow, we have been given a new one and it's so-so.2. no special sashimi/sushi. we were given the usual
omasake dinner:
1. we ordered a bottle of hot sake but turns out that it tastes like hot water. the explanation given was that they "overcooked" the bottle of sake in the microwave and so the alcohol has all been evaporated. we wonder why it is heated in a microwave but anyhow, we have been given a new one and it's so-so.
2. no special sashimi/sushi. we were given the usuals, including very ordinary salmon and eel. personally for omasake type of dinner i've never had these. no scallop, no abalone, no oyster and no 牡丹虾. Uni is ok, small patch.. but tasted clean. hairy crab is ok, usual standard, no complain. the overall taste of the sashimi is just average, better than genki but i don't think it's comparable with other authentic japanese restaurants available in HK.
3. the sushi rice was below standard. they fell apart. no texture.
4. we were served a plate of 白子. it's the sex organ of 鳕鱼. not sure if this is a very special japanese dish but for us we're pretty sure that we don't want to have that. we initially asked if this is part of the "organs" of the fish when we were told this is "白子". the first response from the waitress is that she doesn't know what it is, she need to ask. After asking, she reverted and explained that this is NOT any part of the fish organs but it's fresh meat of authentic 鳕鱼. we subsequently found out that it is indeed the sex organ, when one of us actually tried searching on the internet with an iphone. sorry if i might have sound ignorant here but personally i don't think a lot of ppl would appreciate the dish.
5. dessert is ok. unagi is ok. 蟹肉蒸蛋 is ok.
6. service is just average. definitely HK management style (no japanese hospitality). no detailed explanation of the food. waitresses seems to be ignorant about the food that they serve.
7. i don't recall anything that i had tonight worth the price of around $1400 per person.
overall recommendation: spend your $$ elsewhere. at least for now, think this is still too new.
(The chef has waived the service charge of 10% for us coz of the above.)
