I recently went to dinner with my girlfriend and her mother. Her mother really wanted to try Wasabi and Nadaman. I had already tried this restaurant and loved my first experience. Although this time I did not order ala carte as I did before, I conformed with everyone else. So Risa and her mother had a Kaiseki which looked delicious I had a similar set menu. The experience and flavors were as you can imagine beautiful. The restaurant itself is located in the heart of Kapahulu which in itself can make the atmospere feel loud and uncomfortable. But the restaurants design is quite nice it has a beautiful fountain display to block out any unwanted sounds, and tranquil music that calms the mood for the dinners. Sorry I got sidetracked back to the food. The flavors were unbelievable so much was going on without taking away anything from the food. The flavors were there and nothing overly powered anything else. Every dish complementing each other so perfectly. Although portion size is rather small I understand that this is how the meal is for Japanese dining. Our whole service was done in Japanese with a host in a Kimono. This was a new experience for me and one I will never forget.
