<\/a><\/br>\nI should have learnt my lesson about sashimi and sushi buffets after going to Hanabi. But not learning from my past mistakes tends to be a characteristic of mine. I’m such an idiot. And so it went that my cousin and I went for the $30++\/person buffet at Otori<\/b> located at 5 Lock Road, Gillman Village.

<\/a><\/br>\nThe sushi pictured here are the softshell crab and the crabmeat & avocado ones. This was OK. Edible but nothing out of the ordinary.

<\/a><\/br>\nThe grilled cod fish in teriyaki sauce was nothing to rave about. We also had the grilled mackeral which tasted OK.

<\/a><\/br>\nThe agedashi tofu and the tempura were lousy. The batter for both were horrible and the tofu wasn’t very fresh. We also had the gyoza but it didn’t even look one bit like gyoza. It looked more like a big wan ton, but it tasted really bad. For one thing, the skin was wrong and it was so thick and hard!
\nThe sashimi wasn’t good as well. The fish didn’t taste very fresh and the quality wasn’t good.
\nIf I had to choose between Hanabi and this one, I would go for the former. At least Hanabi has a bigger variety of food. Otori didn’t have unagi, ramen, curry rice and some other sushi on the menu.
\nWhat was worse was that the restaurant was very short-handed that night and we waited an eternity for our orders to be taken. Anyway, the Japanese food there sucks so I suggest you don’t go there!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
