My Theory? I actually have no theory. Only that maybe the people who started this place sold their souls to the devil, so they could make the best asian fusion I've ever had. I used to walk by this place and shake my head because it looks like the type of place that only yuppies would go to and enjoy. K.yo and I were wandering on College one day and were super hungry. I think I wanted asian food of some sort, so we decided to give it a try. Holy crap it was good. On my most recent visit with Tob-asco I discovered that they also serve Hitachino! That made me like the place even more. And if you're a K.yo and like Le Fin de Monde, they have that as well. :) You may be shaking your head at me for hating on fusion, but I've had some BAD fusion.
Pork Dumplings: Delicious and hand wrapped! That's actually impressive.
(The edamame beans are also super good. I love the sticky soy sauce they place on it.)
Crispy Salmon Rolls: The wasabi sauce that it comes with will clear your sinuses!
Kimchee Noodles with Short Rib: Noms, but actually not my first choice.
Curry Noodles with Salmon: So far, the best noodles I've had there.
Advice: The portions are pretty huge, so be ready to take some home. Or split an appetizer and an entree with a friend!
