When you order, the waiter will give you tips in ordering the menu, they would recommend to share everything since the portions are not quite big, so it is basically like a tasting menu where you can taste a lot of food. Normally, you can share one portion of food with 2-3 people, hence, if your group contains more than that, it would be good to order 2 or more servings of each type of food.


Here are some of the food that we ordered:

1. Kingfish Miso Ceviche

An awesome starter, it is basically a Kingfish Sashimi with some crispy stuffs on top of it. The sashimi itself tastes savoury and little bit sweet. Squeezing the lemon to be poured on top of the sashimi would be a great idea for you who like a bit of sour taste.


2. Dengakuman

Dengakuman is a caramelised miso cod, with japanese salsa, and served with cucumber salad.

This is a must try menu. The soft texture of cod with little bit of sweet and savoury taste was indeed a pleasure for those who eat them. 

3. Donatsu

Donatsu is basically a round-shaped doughnut with pineapple filling. This is a type of warm dessert, where you can feel the pineapple filling melt and spread in your mouth. Heavenly taste. Served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and cranberry sauce, it was indeed a perfect dessert to finish your Sokyo experience. 

P.s: It would be a great idea to book your table first before coming in to the restaurant, since the restaurant is very busy and there is a high chance of you not getting a table because it has been fully booked for the night (especially during the weekend).
