What did we eat?
Everything…. 🙂 Grilled Tuna, braised porc saté, fried rice, beautiful mushroom broth with dumplings, sushi, shrimps in katafi dough, wagyu carpaccio and some unique refreshing cocktails.
Good / Bad points:
+ Crazy strong concept and atmosphere
+ Good combo of classic and new “cuisine”
+ amazing new cocktails with cucumber and wasabi
– So massive, I guess around 180+ couverts…..
– prices are very high, even for Antwerp.
Points:
Food: 8.9 – Not much to say here, very strong flavors, nice surprising food, only the carpaccio was too cold…
Coziness: 9.1 – 10 for atmosphere and decoration only so many people takes away the unique feeling of a night out, way too crowded!
Staff: 7.5 – average, lots of students, correct, well trained but no personal touch at all.
price: 7 – on the high side, okay we ate a lot, but still €36,- for a basic Chardonnay is too much, total around €125,- for 2 is expensive.
Total: 8.1 out of 10
