Joël Robuchon@Las Vegas ★★★

Fantastic 3-Michelin Star French Restaurant in Vegas. Speechless. Best meal ever. Superb quality and attentive service. The plates were also hand-painted instantly with elegant graphics design. Love the minute details at the restaurant. Meal A is $198. It's totally worth it.

Maruhide Uni Club@Torrance ★★★ (closed)

Uni Heaven. Must-go for Uni lovers. Uni dishes with Uni directly imported from supplier. My favorite is sashimi rice bowl #3 with Uni, Salmon Roe, and Scallop. Everything is so fresh. The Uni Cream Pasta was great. (well, Blue Marlin had the best Uni Pasta, but they were closed down) Service was really slow, so they gave us complimentary Watercress appetizer. Don't forget to purchase a box of Uni home here after your meal.

#3 Sea Urchin, Salmon Roe & Scallop Bowl $20.80 (regular w/ Uni Soup & Salad)

Sea Urchin Cream Pasta $13.80

Salad for Sashimi Bowl

Watercress Dipped in Broth $4.50
complimentary for waiting for too long

Bread for Uni Cream Pasta

Marinated Uni

A Small Box of Uni for $14
