Yes it's been too long.... honestly I have been recommended so I thought I would give it a go. This Jap restaurant is in one of the malls in Shatin where I used to live for a couple of years. Firstly we got a serving of sashimi trio for $88. Everything was fresh and really thick cut and I particularly like the salmon slices. I think it's great for the value so I would highly recommend you to order it. I have also ordered Matcha beer $58 because I want to know if it's the same as the matcha cider

I have also ordered Matcha beer $58 because I want to know if it's the same as the matcha cider I had a while ago. Yes, they also just mix in the matcha powder into the beer. I think I would still prefer it without but you should try it if you are a matcha fan.
Then we had 3 different kinds of sushi from top to bottom. The sushi is kneaded firmly and the acidity of the rice is spot on. Top: Uni $38 - sweet and bittersweet, just how I like it and it's only for $38, what a good deal?
Middle: Striped Jack $20 - a lighter piece of fish so I did actually have it first
Bottom: Otoro $58 - It's super fatty and the oil just gushed out from as soon as it was in my mouth although there are some thin tendon bits in it which requires some chews
Then we had 2 skewers and they are pork belly $29 and ox tongue $32. They are both seasoned generously with lots of pepper and salt. In terms of tenderness and doneness, I prefer the ox tongue because it's just a lot more tenderer compared to the dry grilled pork.
Tokashi potato with bacon, asparagus and tomato $48
It's a very humble dish with simple ingredients but the potato is surprisingly sweet with a thin skin that would actually give a light snap when you bite into it. I am not a big fan of potato or too much carbs but these potatoes are delicious and worth ordering!
Lastly, soba is actually one of their signatures so how can we come here without ordering it? We ordered the hot wagyu soba $88. You can see that the thinly sliced beef pieces were just barely cooked in a sexy pink colour. The noodles was standard and the soup is a bit like the sukiyaki style which is a bit on the sweet side.
This place is a good option for Japanese food out of New Town Plaza and you don't have to pay a premium for probably the same quality of food. They definitely need some words of mouth because I wouldn't have thought that there is a Japanese restaurant hidden in a small mall in Shatin! If you are a 沙田友 you should definitely come here for Jap food but not in New Town Plaza where they usually charge everything $150+ for a main.
