Last Saturday after a very relaxing massage at The Spa Libis, we went over to Eastwood mall to have late dinner. We ended up choosing Jap food over Italian and Thai. We ended up having dinner at Mr. Kurosawa.
The place was pretty jam-packed and there were a number of people waiting to be seated when we got there. We were lucky to be seated right away because we only needed a table for two. But we ended up outside.. not bad as well because I noticed that the tables inside are arranged really close to each other. One thing I noticed though, was the ceiling fixtures. They really looked cool.
Off to the food, our orders:
Tuna Sashimi
I wasn't able to take note of the price. I was a bit disappointed with the serving size. I remember really raving about the sashimi size from another Japanese Resto, see here. In all fairness, it tasted fresh and clean.
West End Wagyu - P399
I liked the Wagyu balls, it was flavorful and a little bit spicy, the pasta I'm not a big fan of. Arvic did like it I think. :)
Japanese Fried Rice - P78 (per cup)
Lots of rekados.. confusing flavor. Good for the tastebuds I think, because they get confused. Haha!
Ika Fry - P178
This can be shared by 2-3 persons. I was surprised by the big serving. Crispy as well.
Final verdict: It's not one of the best Japanese restos I've been to. And a little bit pricey for their servings. I won't scratch it off yet because I have yet to try their Maki. I have a feeling it'll be similar to the other Jap restos this one is affiliated with (SumoSam, John & Yoko).
CARPE DIEM!
I'm out.
