Sea Urchin &
Sashimi Rice $68 is nicely displayed. Sashimi is fresh. Rice is chewy.
Optimal amount of vinegar has been added to the rice. Overall quality is
high. The whole bowl of sashimi rice disappears before long.
Tuna
with Chives Rice $98 is priced a bit high. But, if you have tried this
bowl of rice, you are willing to pay more than $100 for this lunch set.
Salad
is not the lettuce commonly served in other Japanese restaurants. Soy
sauce is of Japanese taste. Miso soup is not too salty and I like its
taste. The whole lunch set and the atmosphere in Sesson give you a short
Japanese dining experience and an escape from the hustle and bustle in
Causeway Bay.

We
have not made booking today and are lucky that an empty table can be
allotted to us. The first impression to us is that Sesson is a modern
Japanese but not localized restaurant. We expect the price point should
not be low, if it is not very high.
We order two lunch sets, they
are “Sea Urchin & Sashimi Rice $68” and “Chopped Tuna with Chives
Rice $98” The bill is $186. In view of food freshness, originality and
quality, the foods are value for money
(though the sashimi must not be in the top quality category).
What
we have tried in Sesson are of typical Japanese flavor, and we are
afraid of those localized Japanese foods in Hong Kong. This is the only
reason for our future patronage in Sesson.
