Before a couple of weeks ago, I had only crossed the river twice this year.
I hate crossing the river. But, lucky for me, the farewell of Phil was a worthwhile one.
I know that sometimes I say too much, but for the moment, this is a long overdue post and I am not feeling particularly inspired to write. I have some sort of arrested word-spill in my chest that is holding up absolutely nothing but a series of elipses.
Let’s just say that I enjoyed myself a lot and I would go back there again. Their take out sashimi on the other hand, not so much.
Spiced tofu and nori
Zucchini
Salmon Carpaccio
silken tofu, tempura flakes, stock
Oysters that the waitress couldn't specify the location of.
Ichi Ni's signature dish, tempura prawns covered in mayo and wasabi
Pork gyoza
Seaweed salad
Sushi, sashimi platter, which was good.
Here enters the yakatori, starting with scallops.
Buck, buck
Tofu steaks and corn. Photos in groups now, I was eating with self-proclaimed vultures.
By the way, a serve is two skewers. Prawns, beek, calamari, shittake, bowls of rice...
Rockin' pork belly.
Tempura veg with a weird mayo sauce.
The food comes out very quickly and the service is friendly, if not a little lost at times.
And this was a dinner for 8 hungry people, if only Phil and I could eat all of that together.

Went there once, the food was pretty good.. I did enjoy it. However its is a tad pricey, just a tad. I came out a bit hungry, i think i could have eaten the whole meal for 5 by myself.
Well in the end a kebab for supper filled me up
