Hiroshima, Japan｜食遊亭 Aoi 白島本店

A must go for fish lovers! The fried crispy batter from outside and melting texture from inside is absolute heavenly. During summers do try "Goya fries". It is a delight how a bitter gourd can be transformed into crispy fries with no bitterness! Oh yes if going for dinner, do go early as most of the popular dishes get over soon. We arrived at 6:30 PM and most things were gone!

We ordered the sake set with 10 different sake, it was great. We also asked for a sashimi selection from the chef, and those were super fresh and super good. Menu is in japanese, so be prepared to be surprised. People are really nice, do not hesitate to engage in conversation. Great time.

It was a cooking course for 3500 yen. The food was wonderful: beautiful appetizers, grilled dishes, sashimi, steak, tempura, sushi, soup, and pickled vegetables. I would love to use it again at a girls' night out.
