| - Came for the 5 course set menu. I was pretty impressed... there was clear attention to detail at every step of the way, and the service was great. The 5 course menu started with sashimi, which of course was fresh, but also served several different varieties and cuts of sashimi slightly different than the usual fare. Paired with 2 types of soy sauce, which was great for contrast.
The cooked items were excellent as well. There was a bouillabaisse (which actually wasn't very Japanese!), but I liked the nod to other seafood cultures. This happened again with a pair of raw oysters (not cooked food, I digress) one from PEI and one from BC - again, a nod to the Canadian element, which I appreciated.
The maki were inventive as well, with several textures and tastes within one roll.
The dessert was fantastic, particularly the Green Tea Opera. Wow... it was partly creamy, partly crunchy - like an Asian millefeuille, and absolutely spectacular. Will definitely be back!
