Momoyama (C55)

Momoyama. 695 Colombo Street, Christchurch.

Food. Restaurant description and name sounds like a Japanese restaurant but turned out to be more towards Korean. Fairly short menu. Sampled the spicy tofu and fried fish. Neither turned out to be very good. The spicy tofu did not offer much taste with seafood that did not taste right. Fried fish was nothing special; intended to try the fried eel. Waiter took the order wrong even though no one else was dining there.

Environment & Service. A small shop right in the middle of town - around 10 small tables for 2. Unsure if there are dining options upstairs on busier days. Pricing would have been decent if the food was even average - did not finish the meal and had to go across the street for a snack - so there was no value for money. Does not deserve to be part of the EB.
