天家
hahaa… i figured a visit to tianjia is a must-blog! afterall, if shanghai is not home, then Heaven (be it on earth) has got to be some type of a home!
this “sky home” is japanese in nature, so the name is more likely to be pronounced as ten-ya or ten-ka instead of tian-jia (hahaa, i need some japanese help!). but then, it doesn’t really matter how it sounds cuz at this place, it’s all about the taste! and trust me, this place has toro that melts in your mouth and kani as sweet as those served in hokkaido. (but wait, i’ve never been to hokkaido!! hahahaa..)
well, in case you don’t trust a cantonese guy at a nippon ryouri, here’re some japanese words for you. this is how shanghai walker describes the place:
「こんな極上の、しかも高級寿司屋でほお張るマグロのトロを、上海でも満喫できるんですねえ」とかみしめる。
with a comment of:
「舌に乗せたトロはこれまた絶品！」
i don’t know much japanese, but 絶品 does sound like a very high rating to me!!! :D

after this trip, i am starting to imagine 天家 as a home where they serve a good bowl of rice and some quality udon! but until then, being in the company john&family with some top-notch fatty tuna & sweet king crabs (and many more hairy crabs at other shanghainese venues) is most definitely a taste of heaven!
