Toronto's Hottest Japanese Hideaway - Mhel's Legendary Pudding š®š„
This rotating-menu sake bar hides in an unassuming corner but packs a crowd nightly. Intimate yet livelyāno shouting matches here! Came for the pudding (viral on Red), stayed for everything else. Only 2 items matched the hype: Wagyu Striploin & THE puddingāso we got both. š£ Shiromi Mori ($48) Daily sashimi platter. Kombu-cured for extra bounceāobsessed. šæ Nanohana ($14) Nut paste + grilled tofu. Sounds heavy? Surprisingly light & elegant. š Maguro ($36) Bluefin tuna + pickled flower sauce (didnāt catch the name). Sweet-tart perfection. š„© Sogogi ($59) Charcoal Aussie Wagyu. Rich but... whereās the sauce? Salt/wasabi alone didnāt cut it. š Dak Gu-yi ($34) Grilled chicken & porcini. Mushrooms stole the showāearthy umami bomb! š® Dessert ($10) THE star. Best pudding in TOāno eggy weirdness. Almost smuggled an extra home! Go easy on the molassesāitās sweet enough. š¶ Kozaemon Sakura ($16) Seasonal spring sakeāfloral & fleeting. šø Pricey? Yes. Worth it? Absolutely. š Mhel š 276 Havelock St, Toronto #TorontoEats #HiddenGem #JapaneseFood #SakeBar #FoodieFind #DessertHeaven
