Doreen's Bakery in Cork

25/07/2025: We walked in and we were given a table. The menu on the website is older, prices are 20% higher. We waited for around 10 minutes to have our order taken, it was quite full. The food was not authentic Japanese , rice was not the proper one, the ramen soup did not have the strong taste and consistency of bone broth. The yakitori and the beef gyuniku were delicious. They serve free green tea, but it was lacking any flavour and the water is quite hard.

24/07/2025: Another delectable dining experience at Wabisabi. I'm no slavering weeb or mouth breathing hentai watcher but I have come to appreciate the asian flavours and excellent service. The food is deceptively filling and flavourful. Although I have an expensive taste, it's very easy to waddle down the stairs nourished with less than 20 euros spent. By the grace of God I did not discover plum wine in my youth or I would have grown up a raging drunkard; It is one of the only places in Cork that sells it by the glass and I cannot recommend it enough. Everything else is a bonus. If you are passing by I highly recommend investigating this unique establishment.
