GENKI SUSHI BAR AND JAPANESE TAPAS

BEST FOR Tapas with a glass of wine after work. FOOD This small Japanese-style eatery consistently turns out fantastic food with passion and dedication. On the menu you’ll find individual portions as well as large platters, and they have a specials board featuring items like prawn dumplings and soft-shell crab. The pork ramen is a must – a generous portion of dark fragrant broth with noodles, mushrooms and aromatics. The deep-fried crispy whitebait, served whole and with a punchy ponzu dipping sauce, also comes highly recommended. Sushi is consistently fresh and beautifully made. Dessert options are limited but eye-catching. DRINKS The wine list features a decently priced variety of local and imported wines and beers, as well as sake. SERVICE Friendly, well-informed, efficient enough and low-key. AMBIENCE Genki is situated in a quaint courtyard in the absolute centre of town. (IvdM)
