Food is number one reason for visiting Japan among the majority of travelers. But it is possible to visit Japanese restaurant everywhere in the world. We have some Japanese restaurant here too. This weekend I have been to one Japanese restaurant and I want to share my impressions after being a guest there. This restaurant is extremely popular and it was hard to make a reservation. But we were able to eat at this Japan's popular restaurant.The first impression when I came into it was positive. The interior was interesting, everything was in Japanese style. I came there with my friend and we were met at the entrance by the hostess. She led us to our table politely. The servant was very attentive and served us at the high level.
The food we were served there was authentic modern Japanese cuisine. The menu was diverse and imaginative. It presents an array of complex and exquisite flavors. In this restaurant the main concept is to use local Yorkshire produce. It was a winning idea. The menu consists of beautiful sushi. There was also an extensive choice of fresh cooked fish and shellfish, meats. The food is very healthy there as it consists of a wide range of vegetarian and Gluten free dishes.
The prices at this place are reasonable even though this restaurant is popular and situated in the city center. It is very good from their side as they always have clients.
Average costs for lunch: 30 dollars / person
Average costs for dinner: 50 dollars / person
There we ordered some classic Japanese food: Washoku, Tempura, Crab and Yakitori. Washoku is known to be healthy and its ingredients cannot be eaten in dishes from other countries. We tried this dish and were satisfied with its flavor. Another Japanese dish we tried was Tempura. This dish consisted of deep fried lightly battered vegetables and seafood. It was really tasty.
This restaurant is known for its seafood and is high quality. We ate crabs there, as crab is one of Japanese popular dishes besides sushi. We even asked to come into the kitchen to talk to the chef. We were allowed as the servants said they did not have any secrets from their guests. The kitchen was very clean and the food was flowing from it in good clean conditions. The servants were wearing white gloves, carrying dishes correctly, without touching them with their bare fingers. It was good that there was the door to the kitchen and all smells remained inside it. The stations were placed very comfortable to cook on them.
After dinner we left some tips and it was 10 % from the general bill as the service was really good and it was worth of it.
My impressions are very positive after visiting this place. I will recommend this restaurant my friends and relatives. It is worth to be visited.
