| - Two stars for the service and zero for the food. I had high expectation to this restaurant base on their interior design and price level (let's have a comparison with Japanese restaurants at the same price level: Inatei in Markham or Jabistro in DT). But I am totally wrong. I came here for lunch, ordered Sashimi Combo- $26 and Matcha Taro Crepe Cake - $8.5. This lunch costs total of $38.99 and this count as a luxurious lunch, right?
Sashimi Combo- $26, came with chopped tuna with green onion on top, 2 pieces of each of their daily selection sashimi. The most memorable pieces are Chopped Tuna and Bonitos. I will not judge the freshness of Bonito because it seems like is my first time to try this fish (I know the name of this fish because it tasted so bad that I had to asked the server. ?Correct me if I am wrong as I searched this fish online and found "Bonito has a very strong blood scent close to meat, and they have to be extra fresh for sushi./ The bonito have a very strong smell of blood, so they are quickly butchered and chilled. Bonito was rarely eaten raw until the tataki method prevented food poisoning and was usually dried. " (Credit to http://www.sushiencyclopedia.com/sushi_fish/bonito.html)
My question is why could Kiu put this into my $26 lunch combo? Also, the Chopped Tuna had an extremely fishy odour ( I know this isn't fresh because I had tuna before!). I had to eat that sashimi with a lot of wasabi, A LOT!
After the lunch combo, I saw some nice photos on Yelp of their dessert and I want to have something sweet to wash the fishy odour in my mouth (I really should not do this so I could save $8.5). I saw Matcha Taro-Crepe Cake was on today's menu and I was like ?"you cannot go wrong with Matcha!'') Can someone who had tried their Matcha Taro-Crepe Cake tell me how is taste like? Because it tasted weird to me. I had tried crepe cakes from many places such as Lady M in NYC, N9 Cafe, Bake Code and Millie Cafe. None of them tasted like sour and perhaps the cream inside/ between layers. I know the cake was not freshly made because it was lunch time, so probably overnight. I ate crepe cakes overnight before. Maybe their crepe cake does taste sour because they put sour indigents? If so, this is not my taste at all.
I read many good reviews on Yelps from other Elit Yelpers, but I really, REALLY did not have the experience as they described on those reviews.
