Chawanmushi 

Chawanmushi (茶碗蒸し,Chawanmushi, literally "tea cup steam" or "steamed in a tea bowl") is an egg custard dish found in Japan.[1] Unlike many other custards, it is usually eaten as a dish in a meal. The custard consists of an egg mixture flavored with soy sauce, dashi, and mirin, with numerous ingredients such as shiitake mushrooms, kamaboko, yuri-ne (lily root), ginkgo and boiled shrimp placed into a tea-cup-like container.[1] The recipe for the dish is similar to that of Chinese  SOURCE

Wow have been here the first time but super satisfied

The restaurant is really lovely. You have to make a reservation because for dinner the waiting times can exceed a hour easily. Lunch is the best value here but for a dinner date this is a nice place if you are both foodies. Everything was great and most of the fish just melts in your mouth. It is a good alternative to the wait 2 month for a reservation restaurants like Jiro and others. I would argue that no sushi in the world is worth 350 USD for 17 pieces.. (I had it and well I had similar quality in Japan for 100$)

Did you ever have a real Japanese Sushi experience???

Thank you for the tip, Portugal is on my shortlist now.
