Revisit: Japan Restaurant Ishihara, Nürnberg, Germany

We were in Nürnberg for a day trip so a visit to Ishihara, one of my favourite Japanese restaurant in the area was warranted. My first visit here was great and I've been heading back here whenever I have had the craving for some good teppanyaki in Germany.

Seafood teppanyaki in the making

The sky is undecided if it's in a good or a bad mood

Located on the same block as the Historische Bratwurst Kuche, a famous bratwurst joint in Nürnberg

The decor hasn't changed since back then


Green tea to warm up the cold

Small starter of pickled bean sprouts

Dish 1: Sakana (€13.50) - Juicy salmon, king prawns, calamari and assorted vegetables




Voila! Perfectly cooked dish with beautiful smokey flavours and wonderful textures.


Dish 2: "Sukiyaki" (€13.80): The restaurant's own way of serving a traditional Japanese hotpot dish





Various dishes from other customers being prepared




Verdict: The food is as good as ever and prices are pretty much the same, except for the Unagi dish which has been significantly more expensive.
