Never been here before. Had miso soup. I had it once before somewhere else and wasn't a fan. But here, it was absolutely delicious and perfect on a cold, rainy day like.
The sauce for the Crab Rangoon was sweet, but not overwhelming, and tasted of apricots. At least that's what I thought. When I asked, I was assured there was no apricot in it . It was just Thai Chili Sauce. Try it for yourself and let me know what you think.
The wanton wrappers were thin and delicate, but very crispy. And the filling was rich and creamy.
The chicken wings were small, but surprisingly tasty. The sauce had a mild bbq flavor with notes of pineapple or oranges which was complimented well by the the fresh lemon wedge they gave me.
I asked the server about the size of the wings. She said they intentionally picked small wings because the sauce was able to permeate throughout the chicken, giving every morsel a generous coating of flavor. And she was right! It's not always about the amount, but it is always about the taste. The sauce even kicks up the flavor of the shaved carrots and cabbage served with the wings.
But the best part was the Beef Teriyaki Bento Box. Shrimp and Vegetable Tempera. The vegetables were tender and not overcooked.
Same for the shrimp. The batter looked thick, but was light and fluffy. The sushi rolls were light and creamy. The Teriyaki sauce was thin, but was extremely flavorful. And the coleslaw had a peanut sauce on it that knocked me completely out.
I wanted to try the mango pudding, but couldn't eat another bite. So I got an order to go. I'll let you know how it was at another time 😉.
I will definitely come here again. Worth every penny.
