Oh.No.You.Didn't!
I think there is new management as the menu completely changed overnight. This has been our favourite family eating place since our daughter was born 10 years ago. As Fujiyama, then Koi Bento it was consistently fresh, delicious and friendly. We've eaten at least weekly in that time and never had a bad experience.
