Affordable robatayaki

Tried Tamashii which is located at The Coronation.
It is a bit far if your not living in the area but great news to those living in that area.
I got lost at Yau Ma Tei trying to walk there but then I jumped on the 43M minbus which stops opposite The Coronation.

At the entrance, there are lots of Japanese wines and Sakes.

beautiful bottles.

This is where they do the grilling.

Here was what we tried:
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
tomato salad with wasabi dressing:

sweet tomato slices with a crisp juicy texture complemented by the sauce which had a faint wasabi flavouring.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
fugu mirin boshi:

The fugu mirin boshi was rather sweet and sticky, yet it was soft and chewy.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
White eel, Australian beef wagyu tongue, chicken grislte:

The eel was fresh with crispy grilled skin which had no bones.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
chicken skin:

The chicken skin could have been grilled longer because it was not crispy enough and the fat was still there.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
U.S. Angus beef tenderloin:

This was my favourite, lean juicy cubes paired with mustard.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
pork flanks:

The pork flanks were a bit dry but it was complimented by the fragrant leeks.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
roast pork with yam:

This was my favourite. Thin slices of lean pork wrapped around fresh yam.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
lamb racks:

The lamb was tender but it should have been grilled longer because it was a bit raw for my liking.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
minced chicken skewers:

Fairly done but a bit too salty.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Foie Gras:

The size of these were huge!!
They were bigger than the ones you get in other restaurants that serve it as a Western dish.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Scallops:

Fresh and sweet.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
prawns wrapped in chicken skin:

These were interesting and chicken skin enhanced the taste of the prawns.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Japanese Hiroshima oysters:

Juicy plump oysters that were fresh.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Kintoki sweet potato:

These were heavily buttered and then grilled because there was a heavy buttery taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Tofu icecream with chocolate brownie:

I was rather full for dessert but the tofu icecream was good because it was not too sweet with a strong soy bean taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Overall the grilled skewers here are not that expensive.
