Hisui Japanese Cuisine 玉日本料理

Hisui Japanese Cuisine 玉日本料理 (Closed!)
Address: 1883 McNicoll Avenue, Scarborough (McNioll & Kennedy)
Phone: (416) 754-8838
Opening Hours: Mon-Thur: 11am-2:30pm & 5-11pm / Fri-Sun: 11am-2:30pm & 5-11:30pm

the menu first caught our attention.. it's nicely binded.. in good quality card-paper.. with colorful pictures inside..



& then the 2nd thing that caught our attention was one of the waiters.. we recalled seeing him before.. serving in another restaurant.. & yes, he used to work in JP2..

we were told that this restaurant has just been opened for 2 months.. & its location was actually used to be 「春葉」.. the decoration becomes more modern & looks very nice now..

Conch Soup (響螺湯)
it came in a conch.. & we have to pour the soup into a mini bowl.. the soup could fill up the mini bowl twice.. & lots of conch meat inside..

Urajiro (釀鮮冬菇天婦羅).. it's Shrimp Meat Mushroom Tempura..
it's 2 big mushrooms cut into half = 4 pieces.. not much flour.. & tasted good!!
Deep Fried Soft Shell Crab (炸軟殼蟹)
good & not greasy..

Tofu Sandwich (豆腐三文治)
it's one of the Chef's recommendations.. Unagi inside the Tofu.. i've tried this in another restaurnant before & this one is good too..

Uni Handroll (海膽手卷)
they didn't put the Uni in the middle of the rice/roll, instead they put it on the very "side" of it..

Rainbow Roll (彩虹卷)
fresh sashimi..

Spicy Salmon Roll (辣三文魚卷)

LG ordered a beer too & when the bill came, we figured that they forgot to charge for it.. & after telling the waiter (the one from JP2) about it, he gave us two Green Tea ice-cream for free..

we both liked the food & the environment.. very clean & spacious..

& there are 3 VIP rooms & one side of the restaurant is for Teppanyaki (鐵板燒)..

it's stated on their menu that their "Angus beef & Kobe beef is shipped in from Wagyu Kobe Beef Supplier, a favourite supplier amongst the North American market".. LG said he must try it next time..

Oh you're welcome.
It's still a japanese restaurant, but now it's owned by koreans. You'll notice that the whole place looks really different than before...They no longer have teppanyaki tables.
I think that Mikado is pretty expensive..but I think their grand opening discount of 20% off is still in effect. The food there is pretty good...the sashimi are very fresh!!
