It was monday night; almost all the great restaurants are closed...we wanted to eat sushi...""let's try this much hyped sushi place""...wrong choice! \r
To start with, I've been taking photos of the food of almost all the restaurants I've been the last 15+years(!)....then the waitress told us: ""We don't allow the customers to take pictures of the food""...!!!...first time that this has happened to me...my reaction was: Perhaps they don't want people to ""steal"" ""the look"" of their creations...but, all the dishes where presented in a rather ""normal"" way, nothing creative, nothing new...(albeit the pottery/ceramics where it was presented, that were beautiful pieces)...\r
\r
Well, let's get into the food: the rice of the sushi - ""shari"" - it is supposed to hold together when you grab the sushi, not fall apart... ""bad shari""...and the shari came in different sizes...the maki-roll, looked like it was ""rolled"" by a kid, all uneven, falling apart, just ugly.\r
Fish: pretty decent, nothing spectacular. Asari Miso Soup: Tasted just like a cheap ""Izakaya"" one. \r
\r
3 persons, 3 beers, 1 bottle of sake, 2 appetizers, 3 miso soups, assorted sushi = $380 with tip. \r
