Located in a small building on the shore of Xuanwu Lake, this lake moon has a quiet environment, and it is rare to have a quiet and comfortable Japanese restaurant by the lake in the urban area. The store mostly presents a sense of natural elegance, with the main color of the original wood, adding elements such as bamboo, rattan, and hemp, and the style is fresh. Outside the store, there is a sign that says "Dirt Feet are Forbidden", which means that you need to take off your shoes to enter.
This lake month is mainly a set meal, and the combination of dishes is in the form of kaiseki cuisine, including appetizers, sashimi, grilled dishes, sushi, soups, desserts, etc., and the price is only half of that of high-end Japanese restaurants, which is considered a kaiseki course for the general public. The main set meal of 298 yuan for a single person and the set meal for 580 yuan for a single person is the main difference between the two in terms of the number of dishes and the number of sashimi, from the perspective of the dishes and the type of sashimi, the 298 yuan set meal is enough to taste the essence of the Japanese food of this lake.
Hozuki claims to also have kaiseki dishes that are custom-made for customers, located on the second floor of the restaurant, and are similar in form to Sushi Ichi, both of which are Itamae dishes. However, in fact, there are only a handful of Japanese cuisines in Japan that can be called kaiseki cuisine, and it is rare to find authentic kaiseki cuisine in Shanghai, which has the largest number of Japanese restaurants in the country, and even in Japan, the best kaiseki cuisine is often found in the kisen, and there are extremely high requirements for service, environment, utensils, dishes, atmosphere, and even the order of serving.
The sashimi performance of this lake moon is remarkable. Due to the price level of Japanese food throughout Nanjing, the sashimi in the Hoko Month Course is made in a way that combines high-quality ingredients with ordinary ingredients. Sashimi is indispensable for the common salmon, arctic shellfish and peony shrimp, the salmon is thickly sliced, with clear lines and a delicate taste. Although the Arctic shellfish are not as fresh as high-end Japanese food, the Arctic shellfish (the common red Arctic shellfish) after aging have a crisp taste. In addition to the old three, there is also tuna naked, which is fresh and fresh.
If you don't want to order a set menu, there are also many dishes that you can order separately. Medium and large fat tuna, as well as geoduck, king crab, hairy crab, sea urchin, flounder and other ingredients can also be made to order to ensure freshness. Whether it's a la carte or a set menu, it's best to book in advance to avoid running out of ingredients.
