KiJaaaaaa!!! Kung Fu Kitchen

During our Cape Town trip our friends Willie and Jacques (another Jacques) told us about the Kung Fu Kitchen in Hatfield Pretoria. During our trip it became know as "Set menu D" as they always ordered the Set Menu D Sushi plate and Willie joked that whenever they entered the restaurant the lady would say "Welcome..Set menu D?"

Well we got Willie, Jacques and some other friends together to try out this Set menu D sushi.

The Kung Fu Restaurant is located in Middle Street in Hatfield, nearly next to the well know Thai Restaurant. Like most Chinese Restaurant / Take Aways there is hardly any atmosphere to talk about. Surely not a place to take your date for a romantic dinner.

Friendly staff welcomed us and our table was ready as booked by our friends Willie and Jacques. Well there was no need to look at the menu as we were there to try "Set Menu D" but a did take a quick look and they had a full range of Chinese dishes as well as several sushi dishes.

Hanria ordered some Chicken spring rolls to get the digestive system in gear for all that rice. The freshest spring roll I ever had. Luckily Willie also order the 4 Set Menu D plates when he made the booking. Later the Sheff told us it takes nearly 1 hour to make one Set Menu D.

What is this Set Menu D? Well it's a plate of 52 pieces of sushi and costs only R178. Can easily be shared by 2 - 3 people.

Set Menu D was all as promised by Willie and Jacques. We had a ball of a time with all the sushi not to mention the constant stream of wine.

Give the Kung Fu Kitchen a try if you are in the mood for fresh sushi. Remember to order nothing else but "Set Menu D"

Thank you Willie and Jacques
