I've received a number of queries on Uoshin Nogizaka near Midtown Roppongi, and I thought I would publish this post featuring my last visit which was fairly recent.
Yes they have an English menu, but it's not as comprehensive as the Japanese one.
This is what the bar counter looks like
And the fish that they have in the display case all have spikes in their mouths.
And then the food arrived. At first there were 2....
And then there were 4. And many more.
Deep fried fish bones - pretty tasty and yummy. Great with the sake.
Cute little bitter gingko nuts.
Not my oyster but it looked so good.
The most amazing Nokke Sushi, which we had the last time. It's impossible to get a photo where everything is captured. Here the minced toro, ikura and uni are visible.
And from this angle, the kani too. But the minced toro vanishes.
A work of pure art and beauty.
Cabbage salad because we felt we had to redeem ourselves somewhat
Shirako, or cod sperm, for the uninitiated.
Our table midway through dinner.
The sashimi platter for 3. The sashimi here has never failed to be anything less than amazingly fresh.
Some shell sashimi - I don't even know the name...tobugai?
Slimy seaweed in cold vinegar.
Out came the yosen nabe with a variety of different things.
Covered and left to simmer at our table
Veggies chucked in after the seafood was all cooked
The aroma was beautiful
Such beautiful fresh seafood.
Check out that super fresh oyster. It was almost a crime to cook it.
Grilled kinki, or rockfish. Absolutely beautiful meat, especially when grilled. To perfection.
Ankimo, or monkfish liver.
The damage came up to 13,700 Yen or just around $200 Singapore dollars. That's pretty damn good value for such amazing food. And they use soda bottle crates as seats because the site used to contain a drink factory.
