This Korean style raw fish bowl was actually not spicy at all. What made this dish Korean was the hot dipping sauce on the side, but even that wasn't very spicy: it was a little sweet and rich in flavor. The dish as a whole was like poke but without the individual choices. It consisted of cucumber salad, seaweed salad, undressed lettuce, and small pieces of raw salmon, tuna, red snapper, and seared albacore. It was garnished with masago, which is flying fish roe, and black sesame seeds, and underneath was just the right amount of sushi rice. The menu said it would also contain gobo, which is burdock root, but alas there was none. Burdock root tastes a bit like ginseng, and I quite like it. This meal came with miso soup that contained tofu, seaweed, green onion, and mushroom. I thought the mushroom was a nice touch as it boosted the umami. This restaurant is definitely Christian. Instrumental gospel music was playing, and M 6:33 was printed on the paper covers for the chopsticks, the M obviously referring to Mathew. My meal, though, was a large, healthy, and refreshing bowl of food.
