Kaka is one of those restaurants that is so hyped up by everyone around you, that you can't help but be disappointed when you actually try it.
We have all seen photos of their pressed and torched sushi on insta or snapchat, but upon trying it, I realized it was nothing special. There were 6 different flavours, 3 torched and 3 pressed, but honestly it tastes like MAYO ON RICE. Did I enjoy the mayo on rice? Possibly, but I did not may the $28.99 price tag for MAYON ON RICE, so I switched over to the special maki rolls.
The two that interested me was the honey mustard shrimp and beef tataki, they showed up lukewarm. The honey mustard one was saucy, which made it better, but at the same time worse. Ya feel?
The appetizers (squash soup, spring poached egg, and tofu, mussels) were delicious, and dessert was interesting as well, but the highlight of the meal was the sashimi! I loved the butterfish and salmon sashimi, great quality.
But is sashimi enough to get me to turn to Kaka? Probs not.
To me, it's just one of those places you have to try once.
