Piccola pokeria grande sorpresa. Dall esterno ero un po scettica abituata ai soliti locali patinati ed invece è diventata la mia pokeria preferita. Ingredienti freschissimi e saporiti, personalmente attento e gentile, velocità e porzioni adeguate. Consiglierei solo di aggiungere la quinoa come base per il resto tutto perfetto. Hanno anche la tessera fedeltà e fanno consegne a domicilio. L ambientazione non so se è volutamente semplice ma sembra uno di quei locali per local. Giappone. Adoro.
