I don't often dine on the Kowloon side but came here because I was invited to try their food.
Apart from this restaurant, I have tried other restaurants managed by the same group which were good.
I liked this restaurant because it is located on the second floor and most of the tables have a lots of privacy.
Theres nothing more annoying than being able to hear the conversation nearby and having to shout because the restaurant is noisy.
As we tried so much food, there were lots of photos, hence three reviews to show what we ate.
This was a tasting, hence the portions sizes may be bigger so that everyone could try it instead of giving us two portions of the same dish.

Photos of the restaurant:

Sake:

Pickles to go with the sake:
A nice selection of pickles, the green looking one was actually pickled aubergine.

Seafood selection:

Nodoguro half sashimi:
The Nodoguro was seared so that the oily skin becomes crispy and the fish is less oily to eat.
The texture and taste was quite pleasant enhanced by the lemon.

Appetizer:
Nice appetizer of mushrooms in mentaiko.

Scallop carpaccio:
Beautifully presented scallop carpaccio that was fresh, sweet and did not really need any other sauces.

Sashimi platter:
As you can see there was a nice selection of sashimi, my favourite was the botan shrimp, scallops and the Canadian urchin which was just divine.

Marinated tomato and octopus:
The marinated octopus was really nice because the tomato slices and lemon made it really appetizing.
