小棗泥: Tairyou Ichiba 大漁市場

Address : Burnaby South 4300 Kingsway Burnaby, BC V5H1Z9
Phone : (604) 451-3331

介紹這家餐廳以前,首先要簡單介紹Fuji Sushi.
Fuji Sushi 是在大溫哥華地區知名的日本餐廳
幾乎每個我遇過的日本人都知道Fuji,而且給予很不錯的評價
年代悠久,正宗,價錢合理
後來因為捷運工程,所以這間無人不知無人不曉的餐廳被迫要搬家
目前聽說在Port Coquitlam 正在準備重新開幕!

言歸正傳,大漁市場的老闆(Chef)就是之前Fuji餐廳的其中一位Chef!
跑去Metro 旁邊開店,當我們得知消息馬上就去光顧!
進去餐廳的氣氛真是棒,裝潢雖然不華麗,但是充滿日本的氣息
老闆一如往常好客,風趣,廚藝更是精湛.
由於我和小莊都是日本料理的愛好者所以對於日本料理頗為講究

一進門首先是熱情的歡迎
餐廳幾乎坐滿,每一桌都有歡樂的笑聲
服務員也都是笑咪咪的幫客人服務以及和客人聊天
茶香又濃,不像有些日本餐廳淡的像水
蛤蜊真的好好吃!又香又鮮美.只可惜分量偏小
這家店的米飯煮的真好,黏度,酸度,甜度還有熟的程度都是恰到好處
金黃色的蝦天婦羅,蝦很肥大,不像有些只是裹粉裹很多,
炸蝦可以知道他們用的油,是很新鮮的油不是一炸再炸的老油
三文魚蓋飯比例有點怪,飯超多(或許他們是故意的?)
烏龍麵,麵Q而不硬,湯頭還好,不過裡面的配料比其它餐廳少了一點
冰淇淋好吃!原本最討厭吃抹茶配紅豆的我,當場心裡有OS"甜死了"
沒想到,他的紅豆又綿又密,而且不甜!!!!!太棒了

我們吃飯的短短1小時多,就有好多人買啤酒送sushi chef,也有買酒送廚房內的幫手們
根據觀察,只要是吃得很爽很滿意的客人,都會買啤酒或是帶點心去送給店裡員工+老闆
下次我也要表達我對他們的肯定!:)
除了菜單上面有各式各樣的固定菜色
其實可以問服務生或是看小白板上面寫今日特價有哪些
廚師會依照你喜歡的方式幫你料理那條魚喔!

Negitoro Roll $5.5

Prawn tempura $6.5

Wild salmon and salmon roe donburi $8.5

Nabeyaki udon $8.5

Green tea ice cream$4.5

Ken-san, previously the manager at Fuji Sushi, now is operating this restaurant. Went yesterday for date night, and had a pretty decent experience.

The waitresses had lots of smiles, and along with the sushi chefs, greeted us with loud exclaimations upon our arrival. No hostess, but we were seated immediately even though they were almost a full house. The service was excellent. Very friendly and helpful servers. It was way more relaxed and fun compared to the serious and rushed ambience of Fuji. They promptly topped up my tea, and brought the correct number of utensils for dessert without me having to nag at them.

We had ordered:

Deka negitoro
Wild salmon sashimi + salmon roe donburi Prawn tempura
Nabeyaki udon
Aasari Sakamushi
Matcha green tea ice cream

Deka negitoro: It was big, however it was largely in rice. The green onion was fresh cut, the rice was prepared very well, and the seaweed was crisp and flavorful. The ginger that came with it was a tad old and dry. The wasabi was standard.

Wild salmon/roe donburi: Overload on rice, and not enough salmon sashimi(freshness was good.) Excellent roe portion. Rice, like the negitoro was very well prepared.

Prawn tempura: VERY clean batter, fried to a perfection. This is the quality that I'd expect from a high end Japanese restaurant. The prawns were well pressed, and very large in size.

Nabeyaki udon: Standard. Good udon and broth done right with a chicken breast and 1 prawn tempura. Portion was Good. Can't expect much more, but hard to expect less too.

Aasari sakamushi (Clams steamed with sake): Portion was kind of small, but the quality was there. The soup was flavorful and leaves a hint of a sweet aftertaste.

Matcha green tea ice cream: Good, but could be better. Kura, the previous restaurant that was in Tairyou Ichiba's place had better Matcha green tea ice cream. It was creamier and matcha-er lol. Tairyous, however, came with a spoon portion of red bean paste.

Last but not least, their Match green tea. It was very pleasantly bitter with a strong aroma and a dry green tea aftertaste. You can tell they made it way more potent than the average joe restaurant where they reuse the tea bags to hell.

While I don't think it will impress most people who go, I will definitely go back, because this place had paid attention to detail where most other places in its price range don't. Of course, there are still ups and downs they need to work on too. Tairyou Ichiba is good in quality, but their portions were a bit.... disproportioned. I'd say they are priced fair.

Tairyou Ichiba lots of room for improvement, but lots of potential

2nd time visiting ------------------------------------------------------------------------
好吃的東西當然要約大莊還有莊媽來吃一下!
大莊喜歡吃魚,莊媽不吃生魚片,所以我們這一次點的基本上都是熟食我們有些菜色是和上一次重複,這裡就不再PO照片了
Gomma 是菠菜+芝麻+花生醬甜甜的是很多人必點的小菜喔,但是我個人覺得還好.
Agedashi tofu 是豆腐去裹麵粉+蛋去炸一下,味道不錯很適合老年人或是孩子.
Dynamit roll and Nigitoro roll, 都包得很緊實,Sushi rice 做得真好吃
Saba 鯖魚,烤得好香,但是我覺得味道有點重
Black Cod 上網查了一下中文好像是叫做銀鱈魚,真得很好吃喔!外面烤得焦焦黑黑的皮我建議不要吃,裡面的肉真是鮮美,肉質又細又滑,而且很Q彈喔
Asari miso, 就是有家料的miso湯XD有點鹹,而且如果是$3我覺得有點小貴
Toro Salmon Aburi Oshizushi 是一種壓縮的壽司,飯包薑,上面鋪一層三文魚生魚片,然後用火槍稍微燒一下三文魚,讓三文魚生魚片上面微焦,最後在鋪上洋蔥還有三文魚卵,蠻精緻的
這一餐下來四個大人都吃得飽飽的! 愛吃魚的饕客們千萬別錯過喔!

Gomma $3.8

Agedashi Tofu $5.5

Dynamite roll$5.5 & Deka negitoro roll $5.5

Saba shio $6.8

Gindara Kama $ 6.5

Asari miso $3
