Definitely not my kind of delicacy and obviously we didnt finish it.Fresh Baby Eel with Mountain YamOh no, another slimy item. =(Flounder with Truffle SauceTuna BellyScallopThank goodness, after the first 2 dishes,

Cod Fish Sperm
The fish sperm was somehow challenging to finish. Taste wise kinda plain,texture was slimy and totally resembled a mini pig brain. Definitely not my kind of delicacy and obviously we didnt finish it.
Fresh Baby Eel with Mountain YamOh no, another slimy item. =(
Flounder with Truffle SauceTuna Belly
Scallop
Thank goodness, after the first 2 dishes, the rest of the items were more palatable.
I really liked this dish which combined my two favourite items, scallop and tuna belly, and my first time trying flounder. Fresh ingredients which required minimal seasoning, very satisfying indeed.
3 pieces of Specialty Nigiri Sushi and Horse Mackerel Mini ChirasiThis was another highlight of the day! I didnt know what were the aburi fish slices, but all of them tasted so good! I will definitely revisit Hinoki for its nigiri sushi!
DessertJapanese Musk Melon
Macha Mochi
Yuzu Sorbet
Finally, a delightful combination of typical japanese dessert to end the dinner. =)
We spent close to 2 hours to finish the 8 course dinner, which was priced close to $200 per pax. Although there were items that were too 'adventurous' for our liking, the overall experience was an enjoyable one.
