Q

Been a very long time since I had omakase and Q certainly lived up to expectations! Even better that I wasn't stuffed after the full course, although the other dining parties did order extra. 

Food consisted of:

  • Oyster (from BC) with dashi vinegar, soooo good with the dashi vinegar
  • Giant octopus with vinegar
  • Hirame (fluke) with soy(?) sauce, bonito and green onion
  • Akami with yuzu miso sauce
  • Kai (red snapper) with wasabi and sesame sauce
  • Hokkaido hairy crab, served plain and I can attest to how good the crab itself is
  • Chutoro, steamed abalone, scallop sashimi
  • Hokkaido uni
Then the following nigiri:
  • Shima-aje (stripe jack)
  • Kue (longtooth grouper)
  • Premium snapper (??)
  • Akamutsu (black throat sea perch), still my favourite fish for sushi
  • ??? didn't hear the same of this well but its texturally like between a firm white fish and squid or octopus
  • Otoro
  • Tiger prawn
  • Anago
  • Ikura
  • Tomago
This confirmed that I still have no interest in abalone or uni hahaha. Photo taking was challenging with the spotlight type of lighting. But overall an enjoyable dining experience (while taking notes XD ) that would've been much more amazing if I didn't eat too much during the day and didn't have a raging headache ;o;

related is some mochi from a shop that's been operating for 130 years?? They were tasty even having them as breakfast after being in the fridge.
