The Best Thing We Ate ⭐️
Hitomebore
Hitomebore is a short-grain variety of Japanese rice which is bred in the Miyagi prefecture. It's also the name of Kukan Izakaya's new concept.
On the menu you'll find a range of rice focussed dishes and some dishes from their old Kukan Izakaya menu (including some of their old desserts).
Expect food here to be quality - as one would expect from Chef Evan, who has experience from the kitchens of Nobu and more.
We'll probably write up an article on Hitomebore at some point - so stay tuned.
What We Ate 🍴
Hancookwan
For a birthday dinner, we popped into Hancookwan for KBBQ. They have a reasonably priced all you can eat option for $42 per person with a decent amount of sides.
Yiamas Greek Taverna
The fit-out at Yiamas Greek Taverna is snazzy. Be sure to check the toilets. No really.
We usually do our due diligence on places before dining in. This was no exception. The 4.5 star rating gave us a good idea of what to expect. The food here however, left us underwhelmed. Flavours were lacking, so we're reluctant to revisit.
From a review perspective, it does seem like Yiamas Greek Taverna inherited what used to be Georges Meze - a pretty well reviewed Greek restaurant. explaining for the high 4.5 star rating.
Yo-Chi
Dessert was had at Yo-Chi, following dinner at Yiama.
lululala
Lululala is small Korean run cafe in Northbridge, best known for serving up their bagels and Asian style drinks. Pricing for the drinks is pretty reasonable.
Pantano
Rounding out a week of eating is Pantano. This time, we tried one of their arepas. Delicious!
