Montreal Food Adventure | Anime-Level Japanese Cuisine Comes to Life!
I’d been wanting to try this place for ages, but it had closed—until it reopened recently, and I knew I couldn’t miss it again! 🔥 Best Unagi Don I’ve Had Lately❗❗ As a hardcore unagi lover, I order it everywhere—and this one had me drooling the second it hit the table. The eel was perfectly tender, juicy, and zero fishy taste, draped over rice glazed with sweet sauce. Pro tip: Mix in all the toppings for maximum happiness 🥹 🍤 Crispy, Bouncy Tempura (Shrimp Edition) These jumbo shrimp tempura were insanely crispy, revealing plump, springy shrimp inside. The chef even suggested dipping them in matcha salt (didn’t taste much, but fun experiment lol). 🐙 Wasabi Octopus – The "Dangerously Addictive" Dish Tiny portion, big tears—thanks to the nose-clearing wasabi punch. Yet, I kept going back for more. Verdict: A delicious form of self-torture. 🍛 Curry Rice – The Safe Bet Classic, comforting, and so good I wished I had extra rice. Never fails. 🦆 Smoked Duck Tataki – Intriguing but… A rare find in Japanese spots! Flavor was decent but forgettable—mostly left me wanting more portions (or just more food in general 😂). 📍Kyodai Izakaya 2186 Rue Sainte-Catherine, Montréal (Near downtown, great for a quick lunch or dinner!) 💰 Price Range: Unagi Don ~$25 Tempura ~$18 Small plates ~$8-$12 📌 Final Thoughts: ✔️ Must-order: Unagi Don, Shrimp Tempura ✔️ Skip if: You hate crying over wasabi (or small portions) ✔️ Vibe: Cozy, authentic, anime-worthy presentation #MontrealEats #JapaneseFoodHeaven #UnagiLover #TempuraGoals #MTLFoodie
