Succulent cuts of sashimi are accompanied by deliciously spiced soy sauce. The ark shell is a permanent offering and highly recommended. Homemade sushi is predictably good and when presented as a roll, such as the soft shell crab and avocado, the range of textures and flavours impress. Other appetizers include satisfying strips of roast file fish dipped in a creamy sauce and moist spinach tossed in a fortified sesame sauce. Elsewhere, a generous chunk of cod cooked in miso sauce is very tasty. U.S. or wagyu beef dishes are available and the stir-fried sliced beef in a zesty ginger sauce is worth considering.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kiku (B\/F, The Landmark, 16 Des Voeux Road Central, Central, Hong Kong) &#8212; Kiku is deceptively large and its location in the upmarket Landmark makes for a vibrant, lively atmosphere, especially at lunchtime.
