Headed over to the Chinese Cultural Plaza on Saturday to grab some food from Hifumi. I know what you’re thinking: “A Japanese restaurant in the Chinese Cultural Plaza?” Yes it’s true! Hifumi is hidden away pretty well; if you’ve never been to this place before, or if you aren’t familiar with the plaza, you might find it challenging to find.

Hifumi isn’t going to wow you with decor or atmosphere. It is a very simple and casual place. But the variety of foods and taste may surprise you! On our visit we ordered the tempura and beef teriyaki, items that have had some critical acclaim here in the past. Both items were quite good, especially the flavor in the teriyaki sauce! All in all I’d say the visit was worthwhile.
