| - We will be back!
The food is very good and very unique; and the menu is extensive.
Ordered the pumpkin soup which was featured under the chef specialties heading - not bad but not a favourite and it did not stand out to me.
The deep fried eel was good but weird. I am not a fan of eel and have a huge fear of limbless creatures so it took some time for me to warm up to the dish. The taste of dish reminded me a little of ginger beef but with an eelish twist. The presentation of the dish frightened and creeped me out since it basically looked like a plate of fat black worms.
Not a huge fan of the crab claw... and it was kind of expensive - $4 for one.
Noodles were not bad.
Oyster mushroom sushi roll was a little disappointing. I did not really detect any oyster taste. However, I did see a dish called deep fried oysters which is what I actually wanted to order but guess that will be something I order the next time!
Tango (i think) Sushi Roll was okay ... but I am not a huge fan. The pieces of mango and avocado were delicious but it was not really my style.
We also ordered a combo platter of maki rolls.
Now, what totally stood out for me was the spicy crispy salmon roll that was included in the combo. The vegetarian salmon was sooooooooooo good! So realistic ...the texture, the look, the taste ... W.O.W!!!!!!
Now, the service is also something that really stood out to me.
The waitress was sweet and friendly.
There was an old grandfatherly type character helping out. He brought my son a high chair, gave him a little plastic cup, gave him a little spoon, clapped his hands to make the mechanical caged bird sing. He was so sweet.
I like to think that this old man is Joe Yee.
There was also a table full of what looked like this man s grandchildren. These kids were just hanging out, talking, having fun - so cute :) In other words, this place is very family and child friendly.
The decor is pretty nice - modernish and sleek.
Oh, and along with the menu, they also offer a photoalbum so you can view pictures of the menu items.
We will be back to gorge on salmon related menu items!!!
