​​🍣 The Best Value Omakase in Greater Vancouver!​​

After ​​5 phone calls and months of waiting​​, I finally scored a reservation at ​​Yugafu Japanese Bistro​​—and it was ​​worth every second of the wait​​! Loved it so much that I tried to book my next visit right after paying... but they're fully booked for the year! 😭 (Waitlist, here I come!) 📍 ​​Yugafu Japanese Bistro​​ 18818 68 Ave #103, Surrey, BC ​​🍱 Today’s Omakase Set ($88/person):​​ ​​🥚 Chawanmushi (Steamed Egg Custard)​​ Light and savory, with mushrooms, shrimp, and snow peas. A delicate start! ​​🦐 Sweet Scallop & Monkfish Liver​​ Lightly torched, but the liver’s slight bitterness wasn’t my favorite. ​​🐟 Crispy Black Cod + Bluefin Tako Wasabi​​ ​​10/10!!​​ Perfectly crispy skin, tender flesh—absolute perfection. ​​🍤 Tempura (With Surprises!)​​ Not your average tempura! ​​Shiitake stuffed with fish paste + shrimp-filled eggplant wrapped in shiso​​—so creative! ​​🍣 Sushi Highlights:​​ ​​Unagi (Eel):​​ Crispy edges, rich fatty melt-in-your-mouth center. ​​Unexpected star!​​ ​​Bluefin Otoro & Uni:​​ Consistently excellent. ​​Akami (Lean Tuna):​​ Slightly fishy—a letdown. ​​ 🥣 Clam Miso Soup​​ Warming and comforting. ​​🍨 Yuzu Ice Cream + Matcha Sauce​​ Refreshing, citrusy finish! ​​💯 Why It’s Worth It:​​ ✔ ​​$88 for this quality? STEAL.​​ ✔ ​​Creative twists​​ on classic dishes (that tempura!). ✔ ​​Cozy, intimate vibe​​—feels like a hidden gem. ​​Tip:​​ Book ​​months ahead​​—this place is in demand! ​​Leaving full, happy, and already dreaming of my next visit.​​ 🌅✨ #OmakaseLovers #SurreyEats #VancouverFoodie #HiddenGem #JapaneseCuisine #WorthTheWait
