A: Our cuisine is not only sushi and tempura. These are world famous dishes as you say. Our chef learnt international cuisine overseas for the last 50 years and discovered how to arrange many international cuisines for the Japanese palate. Our entire menu is almost all created the Japanese way which means it is based on authentic Japanese cuisine styles and in fact it is 21st century Japanese style cuisine!
