Ukai (Notting Hill)

• The worst enemy of the pleasure of sharing a meal with loved ones
• My colleagues and I headed there with high hopes for an exciting Friday lunch
• Three quarters of which we spent with a rumbling stomach
• The person who was waiting for the curry needed to rush back to the office
• Because the restaurant was nearly empty
• I'd be ready to bet there was only one chef in the kitchen where hot food came from
• It's also worth mentioning that we were the first to arrive
• Keeping clients in the loop is part of our job
• The variety of sushi rolls and flavours is quite impressive
• The great thing about Ukai's sushi is that they don't scrimp on rice and fillings
• My favourite was the salmon
• The salmon and brown rice hosomaki were an interesting experiment I might not repeat
• The chewy texture of brown rice is no match to soft white rice
• Every sushi plate comes with its own helping of ginger and wasabi
• Ukai need to work much harder on service to leave customers with the impression that they're getting their money's worth
• The kitchen is looked after by head chef
• I had dinner with friends here
• Peter Morrell and his wife were enchanted by the tastes
• Japanese food is still quite a mystery to me so I am always excited about eating in one as I know that there will always be some very pleasant culinary surprises in store
