I am going to steal Wendy L.'s great Yelp taglines (so cool...hope I'm not violating yelp trademarks) - just this once...only!
WHAT TO TRY!
Uhm...nothing...I didn't have much choice nor did I want to choose. I'm in cruise mode. I let JK choose as she is intimately familiar with the staff and their menu.
Hibiki is "conveniently" located, next to Platform Espresso Bar, and since we were just their for a morning java jolt! That still means parking is a mad-zone. Once you can park your urban form of transportation, you can relax in the tranquil and oddly quiet restaurant. Isn't it funny when you go to a Sushi joint, you all of a sudden find your moment of ZEN!?!? Hey! Someone break out the Taiko Drums - it's just too serene!
Lots of wooden funishing provide warmth to the restaurant with comfortable booths and tables. Chefs expertly craft delicious sushi and sashimi, from behind their large bar, to appreciative customers. I wonder if they are doing Omakase?!? I want!
The lunch was a combo sushi with sake maki. Some tempura, Udon, and a tuna hand roll as well. A good meal was had and off we went to have another meal at a Korean run Japanese Katsu place! Why not, we just had a Chinese run Japanese Sushi meal! Lord I luv Canada and the confusion of Asian cuisine! If your reading my reviews, you know where this is going next!
LAST TIP?!
Get their coffee. Not quite sure what their brew process is but the results are a good body coffee without harsh bitterness.
Cheers!
