WHY GO
This traditional Japanese restaurant can hold its own with some of Japan’s best restaurants. With its nonchalant, intimate ambience, this low-key but not quite hole-in-thewall restaurant will surprise you with its crisp and succulent ebi tempura and its impeccably fresh sashimi.
TATLER TIPS
• Start off your meal with the mixed sashimi, composed of delicately sliced salmon, tuna, and octopus as well as a generous helping of uni. The salmon is particularly refreshing yet simple and authentic.
• Follow this up with the ebi tempura whose crisp exterior is just the right ratio to the succulent and meaty prawn within.
• For meat lovers, the beef usuyaki is an exceptionally mouthwatering choice. The dish’s thinly sliced, marinated beef wraps around flavoursome, juicy mushrooms. The sweet plum sauce contrasts nicely with the richness of the dish.
