Ended up at Katanashi An as most of the other restaurants’ kitchens in the area were already closed at 9.30pm. We were informed that the last order was at 10pm and the restaurant closes at 10.30pm. It was a good choice to eat at this little hole in the wall that we otherwise probably would’ve completely missed!

One of the three cold salads on the dinner menu - the Sashimi Salad is served with salad greens, a handful of slices of sashimi (salmon and another type of fish), wasabi dressing and topped with nori. I was initially cautious as I don’t like wasabi, but the wasabi dressing here wasn’t pungent and didn’t have the ‘explosion in your nostrils’ feeling. It was light and went well with the sashimi and salad vegetables without overpowering our tastebuds. The salad greens were fresh and crunchy, and there were lots of green-coloured tobikko tossed inside (seasoned with wasabi maybe?) which gave super delicious crunchy pops of flavour.

We all really loved this dish! Can’t remember the exact price but I think it was below $10, which was reasonable. Would order again!
