kikuzen at Harbour City TST

This is the trend of japanese food in Hong Kong, I called it fusion Jap food...not that some are not good...but it sometimes almost taste like a hybrid Cantonese Japanese taste....more like the popular japanese snack food...Kikuzen is this kind of set-up, but the taste is not so bad...it is pretty complex and the stock is very good as well...but again not the best...good to try and go for a relatively good meal...but a little too expensive for the type of food served



Seared Maguro Salad - its snacky kind of nice...though the maguro lacks a bit of intensity

seafood soup in tea-pot : I always loved to order this..it is surprisingly good...the stock being rich and hearty

Dragon maki - anything with soft shell crabs is kinda good...see it is really a japanese snack kind of japanese restaurant- no serious japanese food...but they do this bubblegum popular food quite well

Hand Made udon soup - comes with tempura ( see next picture) Dashi broth is quite good and rich...udon texture -so so only

Tempura is well done - but I prefer Agehan's tempura..


Grilled Eel - again a very difficult dish to make...the portion is large..but the grilled eel have no refinement or surprise...and sauce is a bit too sweet...another sympton of bubblegum japanese cusine
