I don't know what's going on here but each time I go back the food seems to get worse.
- The short rib yakitori was stringy and tough; like chewing on old shoe leather.
- The chicken leg yakitori was dry and devoid of flavor; it could have been chicken breast for all I know.
- The ankimo (monk fish liver) was OK but not transcendent the way it ought to be.
The butter scallops were still good and I enjoyed the chicken katsu but Ematei is barely getting three stars after my last meal there. I hope things shape up soon!
