It's hit or miss sometimes. One time at Kamei Baru it was amazing with heavy truffle scent. Another time it tasted bland. Third time but at Ebisu Broadway and it tasted nothing like truffle, more like just Costco fries.

Hmm... how can I put it... when I put it in my mouth it literally melted like butter but it had the fragrant taste of seared meat. Hard to describe, but there's literally nothing like it. Think of it as the O-Toro Sashimi of meat.
Haha we wipe down the baby seats regularly so it's all good. We know how messy children can be!

I've seen it a few times before a while back (and quite pricey, a restaurant in Kits sells it for around $9 a piece) but I figure we would also start making nigiri sushi with the Foie Gras since we already had it in stock for the Dine-Out menu. Turns out that I can't stop eating it myself haha.
As always we try to be as competitive and reasonable with our pricing as possible. Selling in the $4-5 range depending our how much we get it for.
- Bigger pieces for RS crew

Octopus Garden sells it for $9 while Taka's charge $7.5. I will definitely give it a try if you're within $4-5.

If you see someone eating the odd combination of just foie gras sushi and tantan ramen that would be me

Kamei Royale reopening in Coal Harbour

For those that didn't know, Kamei is the flagship restaurant in the Ebisu chain. They moved from the original location on W. Georgia down to W. Hastings.
It will be opening this coming Monday, June 27th!

We pulled out all the stops to re-invent the traditional menu. We had the honour of inviting the former personal cook for the Emperor of Japan to work with our current chefs and show us some new dishes and his cooking methods.
I've already tried a few of his fish dishes, OMG so flavourful, tender, amazing!

Also, I had a very rude server kept pushing our table to order, slammed menus when retrieving it (broke my friend's nails (shes a girl)). Politely asked for mayonnaise and slammed it on my table. I asked a general question if the same mayo was used to another tall server, was really professional about it and the angry korean server who looked like she had control of the restaurant came to my table and said "WHAT" like she hated me. All the other servers were great except for this one, she looked like a professional streamer on twitch ohlana

unfortunately, i did not try foie gras sushi, ate bubble waffle cafe in lansdowne before. Had salmon pepper popper?

edit: I just wanted to point out she wasn't just rude to me but the WHOLE table, everyone noticed she was frustrated / angry for some reason. Not sure if it was from work or personal life but she was controlling every server and was not talking to them in a professional manner (sort of mean I would say )

dont think shes old, probably mid or late 20's hard to explain but I am sure I was NOT the only who experienced her service that night. Is this a known issue? This really deteriorates customers from coming back, most of the people in my party of 8 are not coming back cause of her too be honest....

Food was good! Too bad we moved inside to a table beside the rowdy group. Had 4 to 5 people stand next to our table...

The ebi mayo was on point !

(Drink menu I did for a project a long long time ago that was attached to a miniature kendo stick ahahha)
