El Japonez | A Pricey Japanese Experience in CDMX

✨ Fresh but Forgettable Sushi at Premium Prices Tried this Japanese restaurant in Mexico City - decent quality but lacking wow factor: Tried this Japanese restaurant in Mexico City - decent quality but lacking wow factor: 🍣 The Highlights • Sashimi platter: Fresh fish (tuna chutoro was acceptable) • Unagi: Perfectly balanced sweet sauce, tender texture • Surprise Winner: Molten chocolate cake with matcha ice cream (temperature contrast was genius) ⚠️ Value Concerns Prices rival Ginza restaurants (without the same level of craftsmanship) Tempura batter too thick, sushi rice overly vinegared 🍵 Hidden Gem The complimentary hojicha ice cream (off-menu) was the real star #CDMXJapanese #PriceVsQuality #ChocolateSavesTheDay
