TURN-ONS For starters, the seaweed salad was a mix of different kinds of seaweed with salad greens that was very refreshing. The assorted tempura with prawns and various vegetables, such as squash, mushrooms and eggplant, was also delicious, and the batter was light and not very oily. The deluxe wagyu shabu shabu (above) was a hearty portion for one person to finish, the beef tender in the flavourful broth. There were also plenty of vegetables, such as Napa cabbage, Japanese mushrooms and garland chrysanthemum, and thick vermicelli and udon noodles. The deluxe wagyu sukiyaki was also a large dish, the meat and vegetables submerged in a salty beef broth with udon noodles.
TURN-OFFS While we enjoyed the shabu shabu and sukiyaki, we wished the staff could have advised us the portions would be too large for one person and, instead, suggest us to choose between the two in order to sample other dishes.
