  • Mackerel sashimiBestGoes well with sesame sauce; nutty and clean
  • Tuna otoro (fatty tuna belly)Rich flavor that melts in your mouth
  • Sujiko (cured salmon roe)Each burst of roe brings fresh umami and sweetness

  • The nigiri is a clear strength
  • Generous portions that leave you full

  • The abalone pasta has a strong cream sauce and is served cold
  • The Ganghwa-do bandaengi (small sardine-like fish) has a fishy aftertaste
