- Kevin Chen added a new meal Dinner at Ukiyo at Ukiyo
Ukiyo
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One of the best finds last year. Tucked away in the back of a multi-use building in Yoyogi Uehara, this place is refreshing in its approach and spot on in its execution.

The Kabi DNA is evident but I was happy to find unique flavour combinations and unexpected dishes.. balancing between simple, ingredient focused dishes and more the more creative side. The octopus and fish dishes were the highlights and the drinks pairings were on point. Coupled with great service and a cool little cozy interior, this place is one to watch!

- Kevin Chen added a new meal Dinner at Tokyo, Japan at Myoujyaku (明寂)

A great washoku place that hasnt been open all that long and has a strong following, but I'm a bit torn as to whether or not I'm really into this place or not.

There are those who seem to call this one of the top 3 or 4 shops in Tokyo serving this type of cuisine. For me, the creativity given the normal boundary conditions of this cuisine is superb.. chef doesn't feel the need to conform to any peer expectations and rather, sets his own style.. this I truly respect. I do feel, however, despite the high level of cooking, i feel that my palate doesn't quite find the rhythm here and I am often looking for a different partial differential that can better define this.

- Kevin Chen added a new meal Dinner at 新橋 星野 at Shimbashi Hoshino (新ばし 星野)
新ばし 星野

A place that diehard washoku lovers rave about a lot. Rightly so in that within the Kyoaji lineage, I would say this shop pushes the modernity in flavour a bit more than some of his counterparts, so i would put this pretty high on my list from this lineage. Presentation is straight up, focused on... More

A place that diehard washoku lovers rave about a lot. Rightly so in that within the Kyoaji lineage, I would say this shop pushes the modernity in flavour a bit more than some of his counterparts, so i would put this pretty high on my list from this lineage. Presentation is straight up, focused on ingredients and flavour. Sometimes when Hoshino-san feels it is appropriate, dishes are just simply tempura'd.. following a trend that I notice more and more at some top washoku places. I am a big fan of tempura but I do feel that more than 1 tempura dish in a washoku course is a little out of place. Nonetheless, tasty dishes and good service. Taisho takes a bit of time to warm up, but he does so throughout the course of the meal.

鮨おおが

One of my favourite places for tuna. Varying cuts of chuutoro ranging from setoro, chiaigishi and senaka are topped onto generous globs of shari. Some would argue this nigiri is on the larger side of things but I find the overall satisfaction to be outstanding. Well seasoned neta and a dash of deep,... More

One of my favourite places for tuna. Varying cuts of chuutoro ranging from setoro, chiaigishi and senaka are topped onto generous globs of shari. Some would argue this nigiri is on the larger side of things but I find the overall satisfaction to be outstanding. Well seasoned neta and a dash of deep, intense nikiri to finish off the art piece. His otsumami is also up there, and I would rate this above most tuna treatment in Tokyo.

One or the highlights of this trip. Helmed by a couple of guys who worked at some well known places previously, this restaurant showcases dishes without any bells and whistles, instead focusing on sheer quality and flavours. Every single dish was delicious, focused and I guess if there was a top notch izakaya on Oslo, this would be it. Cool music vibes and awesome wines to match... this place hit the spot in all fronts. Max boom!
