Vancouver Magazine 今年的評鑑

Best Formal Japanese:

1133 Broadway
604-872-8050

#2 Raw Bar at Blue Water Cafe
1095 Hamilton St.
604-688-8078

#3 EN
442 W. 10th Ave.
604-730-0330

#4 Yoshi
689 Deman St.
604-738-8226
（這間我印象中剛開的時候也搶過冠軍，好像是以懷石料理打出名號）

#5 Octopus' Garden
1995 Cornwall Ave.
604-734-8971

雜誌內容:

Tojo Hidekazu continues to grow into his West Broadway temple to seasonal
and local. Tojo's (Gold) "sets the standard for innovation that remains true
to Japanese ideals of simplicity and freshness," said on judge. "Steamed
sablefish was buttery and perfectly cooked."

The Raw Bard at Blue Water Cafe (Silver) "consistently cranks out some of the
best sushi and sashimi anywhere," enthused another, "thanks to disciplined
and expert knife skills, top-notch sourcing, and informed service."

Bronze to En, the city's most understanding fusion restaurant.

Honourable Mentions to Yoshi (where devotees of soba and kaiseki continue to
flock) and Octopus' Garden (for top-drawer toro).

（我沒記錯 yoshi 是以懷石料理出名～）


Best Casual Japanese:

#1 Kingyo
871 Denman St.
604-608-1677

#2 Zest Japanese Cuisine（這個是我個人最常去的，因為離家近）
2775 W. 16th Ave.
604-731-9378

特別多介紹一下，因為真的去的次數還挺多的 XD
主廚 Yoshi 先生（我跟我朋友都稱他 Yoshi 桑）喜歡跟客人聊天
餐廳裡面日本客人超多～（不過店面小小的多也就多到那樣... XD）
常常會看到坐在吧台的日本客人開 sake 請 Yoshi 桑喝

我最喜歡的是握壽司～做在台前看 Yoshi 桑一個一個握出來
真的是整個放到嘴裡就自動散掉，好享受阿
menu 上記得有個四種魚配四種醬油，對吃生魚片有心得的人可以試試看
頗讓自己的舌頭開了眼界。記得第一次吃的時候跟 Yoshi 桑抱怨過，
說我這樣以後怎麼能接受吃生魚片沾普通醬油阿～～～ :p

總之.... 推薦一下這間餐廳。有興趣的自己去嘗試囉。
不過他的店面小小的，所以很容易就會錯過，
應該是在 16th Ave. 跟 McDonald 的交接口，跟 Starbucks 同一個 block

#3 Okada
2nd Floor, 888 Nelson St.
604-899-3266

#4 Yuji's Japanese Tapas
2059 W. 4th Ave.
604-734-4990

#5 Guu
Various locations

雜誌內容:

Kingyo and chef Koji Zenimaru with Gold for the best Japanese "pub small
plates like seared beef tongue, tataki with yuzu, chicken karaage with three
types of salt, and the screamingly fresh sashimi platter. "Bonus points for
the 90-pound server that can drink you under the table and still maintain a
full section."

Zest (Silver), a regular haunt for many Japanese exparts, excels at unusual
dishes like geoduck salad and monkfish liver.

Check the fresh sheet at Okada (Bronze) for red miso soup with nameko
mushrooms or barbecued beef tongue.

Yuji's earns Honorable Mention for dishes like albacore tuna served three
ways, as does Guu (all locations) for rowdy rooms and equally riotous plates.
