Haiku - Tisch reservieren

I had a lot of thoughts after dining in at hibiki, so i will go ahead and list the pros and cons:<br/ Pros <br/ Excellent service, excellent setup and atmosphere<br/ Love their menu with a variety of modern japanese inspired 'brunch style ' food which sets itself well apart from others. Has me wanting to try everything<br/ Extremely well priced huge portions for the quality of food you 're getting <br/ <br/ Cons <br/ Unfortunately although the food was still quite tasty, i thought it wasnt mindblowingly amazing to justify lining up 30 mins on a weekend<br/ The braised beef cheeks were very soft, however the combination of miso and soy glazed onigiri croutons was quite salty, and there wasnt enough of the yuzu hollandaise for it to be prominent enough in the dish<br/ The okonimiyaki itself was quite bland, its drenched in the sauce which I understand is how its supposed to be and is what makes the dish what it is, however this overpowered the yakisoba (making it hiroshima style okonimiyaki) which was also quite bland. The bacon was just way too dry as well. <br/ The hamburg was also a bit dry and not substantial enough for the burger. Im also confused as to what the sauce adds to the dish? <br/ Credit where credits due, the karaage was super delicious. Crispy and a burst full of flavour with every bite. The soba was also quite nice and light, i thought the stock used to dress the soba was very palatable and not overly salty. <br/ <br/ All in all, a great cafe turned izakaya style diner by night (which ill definitely come back for)! The menu definitely has the lure of making me come back for more. The dishes were great don 't get me wrong, but i think they can be better! <br/ <br/

What a cute little place to break our restaurant drought, post covid 19 lockdown restrictions. Situated on Toorak Rd camberwell. The decor and mood in here are cute and the staff are to match. Polite and accommodating especially to me (pregnant) asking questions to avoid raw food. My only complaint is that we got way too much food! In the image is a beef and pork Pattie on rice with veg (hambargu teishoku) which was excellent, and their spin of a chicken curry (hibiki curry gratin)... with bonus melted cheese on top Excellent addition! <br/ These two mains would have sufficed but we had also put a serious dent in our appetites with renkon chips and pork belly skewers which were all excellent. Would have loved more sauce on the renkon chips though it was divine! Am fascinated that this place also does breakfast and will definitely head back to try out the breakfast menu! <br/

Hibiki is one of my friends favourite cafes, so I was pretty excited when a couple of friends and I decided to go for a Sunday brunch outing. There were so many amazing sounding meals on the menu. I decided on the Kimchi Shakshuka with added feta and was not disappointed. It was so hearty and full of flavour I absolutely loved it and it warmed me up on a cold winters day. It was a generous serving size and great value for money.We did have to wait over half an hour for a table, but it was worth it for the meal I had. I look forward to returning in the future.

Our visit to hibiki was amazing and we were presented with very innovative asian-inspired dishes. The udon carbonara was delicious, creamy and full of flavour and I loved the addition of the egg yolk and crunchy rice puff. The beef cheek benedict was also good but barely had any yuzu hollandaise, which was a little disappointing. Both dishes were very rich and filling (might be too heavy for breakfast/lunch but that's just our preference! . The matcha latte was also nice, smooth and creamy. Would definitely come back to try out their others dishes!
