KOKOMI (Hong Kong, CHINA) ★★★☆☆

It's another zoo day today and the plan was to first stop by Pacific Place for a quick pitstop before taking the short walk over to Hong Kong Park and then Hong Kong Zoological and Botanical Gardens.



We were in the mood for some Japanese food this afternoon so without much hesitation, we went straight towards the direction of KOKOMI, a concept by local F&B giant Maxim's combining a sushi shop, teppanyaki and izakaya under the same roof.



KOKOMI's menu sure covers a lot of ground.



Assorted sushi set ($208) - For the price that we're paying, it's a little weak. Cucumber maki? I think we deserve some tuna maki there. Very low value for money and average quality at best.



Steak teriyaki set ($198) - I had steak teriyaki from the grill and it easily beat out the assorted sushi set in every single category.



The menu didn't mention its origin but I'm guessing it's Australian beef. Very tender and juicy. Even the cherry tomatoes tasted a little sweeter.



Baked oysters with wasabi mayo ($68) - Pretty tasty. The wasabi mayo came with a bit of lemony flavor working well with the briny oysters.



Not everything worked out perfectly for us (assorted sushi set came to mind) but I like the spaciousness and comfort here. This place deserves an encore.
