KU-O Japanese Restaurant

I am a massive fan of Japanese food, and this restaurant did not disappoint. When you enter the restaurant from Trafalgar Lane just near “the Gabba” you will first notice the umbrellas that hang upside down from the ceiling, the quiet booths to eat in and the friendly and attentive staff. When I ordered my drinks, I was a little disappointed that my “go to” drink a gin and tonic was unavailable, I instead opted to try something new, it was a drink called a sukkiri. They brought it out in a small pink soft drink can accompanied by a champagne glass, looks were deceiving, it may have looked like a child’s soft drink it was a delicious 4% alcohol sparkling peach flavoured drink, of which I had...

The food was honestly above average, served quick and priced okay. Small yet nice place for a sit down meal. The thing i hate most is when you get the menu at the start, it was scruffy, oily, **** on it. Does it cost a fortune to print some decent paper?
