After seeing the IG post by the orange holiday magazine, I became curious about this newly opened sukiyaki restaurant at the mid-section of Minden Row. We ordered a $480 lunch set, which was the cheapest one on the menu, just to test the waters. Well, its sukiyaki sauce.What came first in our set lunch was a slice of l evenly marbled rich cut of Tokyo-bred wagyu, cooked in front of you, folded and served in a bowl by a dedicated Japanese speaking chef. The beef could be dipped into the egg wash

The beef could be dipped into the egg wash and/or one of the four hand crafted Japanese condiments. Personally, I liked the yuzu pepper the best because it provides a good counterbalance against the grease from the beef washed with the nutty and sweet sukiyaki sauce.
The second was the supposedly highlight of the lunch. A smaller slice of allegedly olive-fed beef was then cooked. While this is surely no ordinary grain fed beef, I cannot taste any olive in the beef. Nonetheless, the fatty section does embody the aroma of grass-fed beef.
While two pieces of beef in a $480 + 10% starter lunch set were of high quality, and one may consider it fair compensation for its Wabi-sabi decor and Japanese infused ambience, the side dishes and chawanmushi (where you can find one exact cube of fishball and at most some meitako inside) were so predictable that it just failed to surprise us.
I was also dispirited by the laudable provision of vegetables, which I believe is not how a restaurant of this price range operate in Japan.
Regardless of how meaty the sukiyaki l looks like, I would not recommend this restaurant for any low carb dieters like myself. I also have reservations about the pricing strategy of this restaurant.
