You know how I said I suddenly discovered I loved Japanese food since that buffet 4 days ago. Well... I've had Japanese for lunch on Friday and Saturday. And today, Mark and I ate at 2 of the many places recommended by you guys.
Sashimi was delish.... $20 for 5 tiny pieces... and sushi was great. Only didn't like the mackerel... bit dry.
And then for dinner, we ate at Yotei, at Forum Mall.
Food was great here too! Even the mackerel was nice and moist (like it should be!). But this place was soooo much cheaper! We paid $6 for the same 5 pieces of salmon sashimi... (only the presentation was not as elaborate as Kuriya.

Lunch was at Kuriya and Shaw Centre. 

I had sashimi and the sushi with the roe (Toboki or something that sounds like that... haha), and Mackerel.

Since it's so nearby... I think we'll dine here more often. But there's still plenty of great Jap restaurants to check out!

Popped by Sun & Moon at wheelock after lunch today... just to look at the menu.. and I think I'll love that place. Great ambiance... nice lighting, spacious.... best of all.. I even saw foie gras on the menu. A place with Jap food (at good prices too) AND foie gras on the menu... Heaven.

P/S- I've noticed the salmon I've been having over the last few days have varied colours.. some more pale, others more orangy pinky. Any idea why? Like is it just different parts of the fish? Or is it an indication of quality? I'm going to start making Japanese meals at home soon... so it'd be good to know what I should look out for.

And Yotei... is gd value for money.. I can't really say if it's fantastic or not.. because it's only one of the few places i checked out so far. But def not bad. And if you go weekdays from like 2pm to 6 or something... (can't remember the exact timing) it's one for one on all plates! IMagine getting 2 plates of salmon sahsimi for $6. great great value. will def pop back there on weekday soon.
