And I followed up with the main course of 4 cheese pizza with sage and walnuts. This was tasty and more than enough for one person. A bit more sage would have been good as the cheese really drowned it out. A solid 4 stars - a few more individual sushi elections and this might have been 5.

Not really hungry and Yelp bookmarks. That's is how we can summarize how we ended in Bouzu. And of…read morecourse, we didn't want to cook that night. We can define the restaurant as an Izakaya (Japanese tavern). It is a small place divided in two areas and a terrace. The lobby that has bars on the sides where you can sit and have your meal, and a dining room at the end of a corridor hosting 20-25 sits divided in 8-10 tables. We got in yesterday and we decided to wait for a table inside. They offered us the bar, but we wanted to get properly sit, so we wait around 20-30 min to get a table while sipping a Japanese beer. As we had the menus from before, we had already filled the checklist they have in order for you to order. We were not really hungry so we decided to get raw fish instead of the fried stuff that you can get in a Izakaya. We ate jellyfish and seaweed salad as starter (delicious, it was our first time tasting jellyfish) followed by some sashimi, that literally melted in our mouths and a bowl of raw tuna and salmon with rice. The fish again was delicious as so was the rice. A good discovery thanks to the yelp bookmarks, always useful when you don't really know what to get and have the will to discover something new.

Searching for an open Japanese restaurant in Barcelona around the holidays (late December) is…read moreapparently no easy task... I think everyone goes on vacation! We breathed a huge sigh of relief when found that Tempura-Ya was open. Nice mid-range restaurant, casual and decent prices while still having a slightly upscale vibe. We were welcomed in by the staff with a cheerful "irraishaimase" (your standard greeting upon entering most legit Japanese restaurants). I got excited when I realized our server spoke Spanish, Japanese, AND English... the 3 languages I can claim to speak (in varying capacities depending on which one :P). Overall, I'd say the food was solid. Not the best Japanese food I've ever had in my life and no where near the worst. There's a lot of tempura on the menu of course, but they also have sushi and a lot of other typical Japanese items. Tried were the gyoza- tasty and good consistency; tempura udon- noodles good and broth savory and comforting, but the tempura does not come separate and got soggy real fast in the soup; sukiyaki udon- my partner said it hit the spot; tekka maki (basic tuna sushi roll)- clean and simple; and green tea cheesecake- DELICIOSO! If you're a fan of Japanese food and in the area, I'd definitely recommend this place. If I lived in the area, I would probably be a regular!

Same with the Gyoza... it was kinda tough and rubbery, and not hot at all. The place opens at 8 and we were among the first few people there at 8:30 (Kiku Chan is a rather small resto, and it did fill up pretty quickly). But cold food so early in the evening of service? At least service was prompt and the food came out fast. I've had a serious craving for ramen for the past few months, and I was happy to find Kiku Chan... but when you've had seriously great Ramen in Little Tokyo or Gardena, California... well... this was Okay. I'd probably come here again when in want of soup. Note to self: ask for it very hot next time.
