🇨🇦 Vancouver's Hidden Gem! My 8x-Month Japanese Obsession! 🍣✨

This unassuming spot became my foie gras sanctuary—after one desperate "foie gras near me" search, I've been hooked since May (10+ visits and counting!). Their unagi-style foie gras sushi (hold the sauce—the perfectly torched, buttery liver needs nothing else!) started it all... but everything here shines. Yesterday's first in-person visit confirmed: EVERY. DISH. SLAPS. 👏 📍 Murasaki Japanese Restaurant 🏮 Vibes: Spacious, clean izakaya with warm staff (owner recognized me as "that foie gras regular"!) 🏆 Must-Orders: 🐟 Salmon Belly: "Deep-sea fatty pork" indeed! Glossy, melt-in-mouth marbling. 🐷💦 🍣 Foie Gras Sushi: Ate 12 pieces in one sitting—that level of addictive. Happiness = this plate. 🦢✨ 🍛 Chicken Katsu Curry: Under $20 but tastes luxury. Crispy cutlet + rich roux = perfection. 💰 Damage: ~$50pp (budget-friendly lunch sets from $20!) Why I'll Keep Returning: Quality that punches above its price Consistently excellent (even gave me extra foie gratis!) That "I-found-this-first" smugness 😏 #VancouverSushi #HiddenGems #FoieGrasHeaven #IzakayaLife #FoodieFinds
