| - On my recent trip back to Vegas we had the opportunity to try Koji out while we were at The Orleans Casino for the first time. Generally we would just be here for the Orlean's buffet but since we were sort of buffet out we decided to give this place a try. It actualy pleasantly surprised our party!
First of all, we were here little before noon so the place was only occupied by 3 tables... Then as time passes by, a good amount of crowd actually were building up so I'm glad to see that happen with any restaurant large or small.
Checked the prices out and it was slightly steeper than what I was hoping but with the craving for sushi we decided to give it a try...
Here is what we've ordered...
Who's your daddy roll: Totally delicious! Yes it was more expensive than other places but man it sure was good. Delicious tempura shrimp & I believe avocado wrapped in sushi rice topped with sashimi with sauce... so delicious! I think I can just get this only next time around!
Tried a couple of dishes on the menu too! (aside from the sushi) It was actually really good!
--Braised Pork Belly with Chinese Mustard Greens: So bomb! The pork belly were so tender, soft, and perfectly simmered in a soy sauce based soup that is actually not overly salty. (If I only had some BAOs with me this would of so made my day!) The portion of these pork belly were huge too! Easily 8 slices of 1/2" of porky joy! I can still conjure the image of how it was melting in my mouth! WOW!
--Steamed Tofu in lotus leaves with shaved Scallops: Another awesome one! The tofu itself was light, airy, fluffy, and hot! The sauce that goes on top of the freshly steamed tofu was just the rigth balance of flavor once again with the melody of mushrooms + shaved scallops... what a perfect balance to the pork bellies!!!
--Pan fried beef noodles: You know, this dish is actually quite good but I'm not a pan fried noodle type of guy (I don't like it anywhere but others love it so I just have to deal with it) It was tasty but just not my type of dish to enjoy.
Service was attentive and effective. No problems here!
So after finally tasting Koji for the first time after so many trips to Orleans would I go back? Yes! Who's Your Daddy + Pork Belly truly got me hooked! Unfortunately it is a casino environment and cost will be much higher than say at Chinatown area, but if you are doing your gambling here at The Orleans, I would definitely recommend you give this place a try!
(P.S. Pork Belly I believe it's a special that comes and goes... so if you are into juicy, tender, and absolutely pork belly cuts, you better get some now!)
