($38) seasonal festival cake but it really like cny cake lol. But it's quite refreshing and also sweet taste for cake. But the mochi was quite chewy and not that hard texture.

($35) It's quite strong bitter and sweet taste for chocolate. It's getting jelak if eating too much.

Every dish of the $228++ omakase course was good, but none was outstanding. The urchin doesn’t look super fresh. Definitely one level below comparable nearby places like Jinhonten. May not survive in this expensive location.

Had the Pork Katsuni Teishoku ($11.50) and the Loin Katsu Teishoku ($7.90 for 80g). Quality was so-so, but I appreciated the full range of condiments provided that helped to elevate the flavour. Katsu sauce, apricot sauce, salad dressing, shichimi, and even mustard. Good for a value for money and casual meal.

Checked out this place recently, and the food didn’t disappoint. The gyudon was on point—beef slices were super tender, and the sauce was spot-on, soaking into the rice for that perfect bite.

The real star for me, though, was the spicy salmon don. The salmon was fresh, and the creamy, the seaweed topping and seasoning added so much flavour. It felt indulgent but not too heavy—definitely a must-try!

Portions were generous, and everything hit the spot. Solid comfort food that’s worth coming back for.
