IRELAND ๐ฎ๐ช Dublin | Japanese Cuisine Recommendation ๐ฃYamamori๐ฐ
๐ Yamamori , 38 Ormond Quay Lower, North City, Dublin 1, D01 A593 Iโve been putting off visiting this sushi place because I heard a lot of complaints about it being expensive and not very tasty. While itโs true that the prices are on the higher side, the dishes are absolutely amazing, and I think itโs definitely worth a try! The portions arenโt small either (bigger than Daruma ๐ ). For two people, we ordered some starters, drinks, and desserts, totaling โฌ90, and we did splurge on the more expensive Wagyu beef. So, if you just stick to starters and main courses, the per-person cost should be around โฌ30. ๐น Zesty Lychee ๐๐๐๐ โฌ5.50 The lychee water I had was super refreshing with a light, sweet lychee flavorโperfect for the hot summer weather. It also came with two plump, fresh, and bouncy lychee chunks. ๐ ๐ธ Nama Lychee ๐๐๐ โฌ13.50 My friend had the lychee sake, which was not sweet but rather on the tangy side. ๐ธ ๐ฅฉ Salt Stone Wagyu Beef ๐๐๐๐๐ โฌ24.10 This was my first time trying Wagyu beef. The portion was small (just six slices), and it was a bit pricey for a student like me, but it was absolutely worth it! The meat was incredibly tenderโI canโt even imagine how tender the more expensive cuts must be. It gave me the motivation to save up for more! I cooked it myself and seasoned it with sea salt and wasabi. It was heavenly! ๐ ๐ก Octopus Ball ๐๐๐๐ โฌ11.50 The octopus croquettes were fried with a crispy outer shell. The inside was pureed octopus, giving it a mashed potato-like texture. Although it wasnโt traditional, I loved the crispy exterior and the creamy sauce that came with it. It was addictive! ๐ Unmarshaller Unagi ๐๐๐๐ โฌ5.55 I ordered the unagi nigiri instead of the unagi foie gras sushi (which I accidentally missed out on). The unagi was incredibly tender and delicious. Iโll definitely try the unagi foie gras next time! ๐ฃ ๐ฅ Grilled Yuzu Prawn Salad ๐๐๐๐๐ โฌ12.15 The yuzu shrimp salad was tangy and sweet, incredibly refreshing and perfect for cutting through the richness of the other dishes. ๐ค ๐ Kimchee Chicken Karaage ๐๐๐๐๐ โฌ10.65 The fried chicken was super fragrant, tender, and not greasy at all. The sauce was perfectly balanced and not at all cloying. ๐ ๐ฐ White Chocolate Miso Cheesecake ๐๐๐๐ โฌ8.50 The miso cheesecake was a unique blend of savory and sweet. It had a mousse-like texture with a drizzle of caramel and a dollop of whipped cream. The cream wasnโt overly sweet, and the combination of flavors was spot-on. I deducted one star only because I couldnโt taste the white chocolate, but the savory cheesecake was still delicious. ๐ฐ #Dublin #Ireland #IrishLife #JapaneseCuisine #JapaneseFoodie #IrishFood #DublinEats #DublinLife #DublinFoodie #DublinRestaurant
