This little local is like a secret corner of Japan. from the decor and swift,friendly service to the concise menu and honest food. A simple plate of prawns with a light,crisp tempura coating and dot of wasabi says it all. Follow with delicate gyoza (dumplings stuffed with pork and cabbage),served with a sweet dipping sauce. And then there's okonomiyaki,the ever-popular student staple. Here it's a fluffy pancake layered with teriyaki chicken and cabbage and slathered with thick,jammy,apple-y sauce and a squiggle of mayo. There is nothing showy,either,about wagyu yakiniku-style,but the flavours are all there. seared strips of meat with a no-frills heap of fried-off onion,leek and ginger and a punchy ponzu (citrus soy) on the side. Don't get excited about green tea mousse,however. it's a calorific creation of white chocolate,cream and green tea powder topped with another whorl of whipped cream and choc chips. Skip it and sip some sake instead.
