| - I'd never been to an Izakaya before and was keen on the experience. Up a flight up stairs, through some curtains and BOOM goes the Taiko drum to welcome us. All of the staff was very friendly though at first they seated us next to grill right at the end of the bar where it was quite warm.
I ordered the plum wine as it was on special, It was amazing, Not too sweet and not too bitter and packed a punch at 20%ABV. My lady had the lemony citrus thing, which was also quite nice,
We tried the Steam Shabu Shabu, the pork belly, which was quite nice and had a very different texture. We also had the Hoppeata Yaka, which was chicken and potato and a nice sauce, however the chicken was a bit stringy, maybe next time we will try to get the vegetarian version.
We also had the deep fried skewers, which were also really nice and fried goodness. We also had the deep fried shrimp, mm mm, everything was good and alot of food.
