“The food is so-so but they have HUGE ebi tempuras,” I promised.
And that is how we end up at Ginzadon.
Banchan on my first visit
Banchan on my second visit
Salmon Sashimi – not really the best quality but ok lah
Uni Sushi – uni is sweet but seaweed is already soggy
Unagi Temaki – the rice is not sushi rice quality, and there is just too much of it. The eel is cold and dry.
Ama Ebi on my first visit – not too fresh but not too bad
Ama Ebi – not fresh and tastes a bit slimy. I wish the chef removed those tiny green eggs on the leftmost shrimp before serving it to us.
California Roll with Unagi – again, not sushi rice quality. Each roll breaks apart when I try to pick it up with my chopsticks. The unagi is cold and dry and hard.
Look at the seaweed. It’s melting.
Beef Teppanyaki – Hello, Batangas beef! Are you sure this is teppanyaki, not TAPA-nyaki?
Ebi Tempura – okay, they’re bigger than the usual, but not as HUGE as the ones from Lanai.
Green Tea Ice Cream – thank God they didn’t mess this up
Guess who I spy at the next table.
Yes, it’s THE Rajo!
Judging from the leftovers on his table, I would say either the cute top fashion designer of the country is on a diet or he doesn’t like the food that much either.
A case of an “ok” restaurant turned bad.
