Negitoro don from Oceans of Seafood. Rather appalling – the negitoro was emotionally distant and clumpy, the hard egg yolk with its remnants of white felt like something constipationally crapped out, and accessing the rice via the spring onion required NSF-jungle training levels of forest bashing.

Customised mezzanine set at Museo ($44), consisting of any four of the eight mezzanines available. It was quite an interesting experience having share-sized portions of zi char-style fare in a classy, laid-back and cosy setting.
