I had the sashimi bowl. The toppings were surprisingly fresh and generous, with a taste that made me want to eat it again.
The staff were warm, and the chef came out of the kitchen to take a photo with us. It was an unforgettable experience.
With the all-you-can-eat and drink course, there was everything from sushi and shabu-shabu to a vegetable buffet.
Combining more than 20 sauces to make my own favorite flavor was fun, and I never got tired of it.
Even though I live in Osaka, this was my first time eating it.
The cake was moist with a slightly dense texture, and the cream had a rich milk flavor. I thought it was just a roll cake, so I was surprised.
