What attracted me was the everlasting queue outside Hifumi. Before one gets to have a taste of the food, he has to wait for an average of 30-45 minutes during peak hours. This is the second time I came to Hifumi and the appetizer bar is still the highlight of this Japanese restaurant. For any set meal that you order, you are entitled to have a free flow of appetizer from the bar (they don't serve a la carte FYI, all are set meals).Really love their jelly fish appetizer, it's crunchy and fresh an

Really love their jelly fish appetizer, it's crunchy and fresh and served chilled. Their potato salad is also worth raving about, my friend made a few trips to the bar just to get her potato craving satisfied. The chawanmushi is the fastest moving item on the bar - two minutes after a new batch was dished out, people just swarm over to snatch the little cups of steamed eggs. My two friends and I had two cups each.
My set dinner - fresh salmon with lotus root marinated in vinegar. Healthy and light to the palate.Average spending per person is less than $20 which I think it's quite affordable for the quality AND quantity of food.
