Japanese @ Rakuzen

This restaurant probably requires little introduction amongst the Japanese food circle.

We had a salad, with a Japanese twist. Mock crab sticks, flying fish roe, seaweed, besides the usual lettuce, cucumber and tomatoes with a delicious light sauce. This was interesting, and went down well.

A maki appetizer of deep friend oyster (kaki maki).

Grilled salted mackerel (saba). Not too bad, however in my opinion the one at Kampachi Equatorial Hotel, is probably better than this.

And this, chilled slices of wagyu beef. Interesting in comparison with the other style (where you cook it on a personal stove) which I had at Hanabi.

Overall verdict: Pretty decent food at decent prices.
