Gozu - by Christian Lee

One does not simply go to Gozu once in their lifetime, they go twice, or even as many times as necessary in order for their offspring to be recognized based on their non-alcoholic beverage choices. The epilogue below narrates my own personal experience, my story…The Lee’s Gozu story.

Not only is the food simply divine, but it’s adventurous, it’s spirited, it’s an exploration of one’s palette. The whole dinner will leave you in a tasteful bewilderment, taking your tastebuds and stomach to a tasteful unknown. My fellow gastronomic journeymen and cohorts have raved about their various pairings, whether it be the non-alcoholic teas, whiskey for the finest of elites, or sake distilled straight from the bosom of Japanese goddesses, the drinks are simply to die for. I myself have quite enjoyed the Echigo "Koshihikari" Rice Lager, as every sip felt as light as a falling feather softly cascading through my lips.

The night always starts off strong. The first entry bites of their mini delectable starters will set you right for the amazing journey ahead. The main dishes are full and plentiful and act as a grand finale with fireworks in each and every bite.

Now that we got the dinner out of the way, the most important part of this review is what I would like to call “the wipe”. My god, the bathroom…oh the bathroom. Entering this baño of the heavens gives you a feel like you’re leaving the restaurant and entering a tropical garden of eden. The whistling of recorded birds kissing the sides of your ears in a gentle yet presenting manner, gives you the feeling that you’re going to have the best piss of your life. Though a short trip it’s a perfect pit stop to the perfect dinner you’ll be returning to. They say the finest of linen are hand crafted with the best silks on the planet, thread by thread. This is the same for the toilet paper. Almost like 100% Egyptian cotton sheets, each wipe feels like a touch of god leaving you as clean as a bath in the finest Japanese bath house.

All and all, from the amazing drinks, to the finest meal, and bathroom trip of a lifetime, you must, and I say must, go to Gozu’s…bathroom. Oh and of course the restaurant too!
