- Gumshara is a bit polarizing. I absolutely love it, but some people think it's gimmicky and hate it. Regardless, I reckon they're worth trying at least once!

- They made the best karaage chicken I've ever had. So tender, juicy, and covered in a crispy breading.
2325
- You should book for this place. It's a very small shop, so you may show up only to see a sign saying no walk-ins for the day.
