Topic: Industry Zen : 104 Customs St West

Wow.

What an experience. Industry Zen (ex cafe Rikka formerly of Drake St) has moved to the Viaduct and the dining is just as good.

The food is quite amazing to be seen. Works of art that you don't really want to spoil by eating. But once you do it's a taste sensation.

A group of about 16 of us went for lunch and all ordered something different. It was exciting to see the different dishes and how they were presented.

I had the tempura and teriyaki chicken. The tempura was perfect and the teriyaki chicken was sublime, cooked to perfection accompanied by a variety of different dipping sauces. At only $19.00 which included salad, miso and the main it was a bargain.

The only down side is the service is quite slow so I would suggest you make sure you have plenty of time to eat or you will be disappointed.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for some excellent Japanese cuisine.
