A chap called Andrew Kojima,\u00a0 Masterchef finalist in 2012 opened a joint in Cheltenham, called Koj. I wanted to go for a few weeks, as I am a Masterchef fan, I am Japanese food fan and the reviews were mostly very good. So we went.\u00a0 The place has a small, but interesting menu, no sushi though, as Koj reckons it is to be a place for those, who want to try Jap food, but don’t like sushi.<\/p>\n

Hendricks, cucumber and wasabi martini to start was very good, refreshing, as we are having a heatwave this week. I’d have 3 of those easily( I didn’t).\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We had some decent sashimi, then a couple of the steamed buns, one with nice, soft pork, but the soft shell crab one was excellent. If I ever go back, I’ll just have 2 of those and\u00a0 some sake and I’ll be happy.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The lemon sole little wraps were fantastic too, we had to try, as everyone on TripAdvisor were on about it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then we ordered more, some crispy, spicy beef (ok) and some KFC, Koj Fried Chicken.\u00a0 Fairly average, we agreed.<\/p>\n

The place didn’t excite me enough to run back in a hurry, but we’ll be popping in to Wahaca Bristol again in 2 weeks time, for that passion fruit mojito I can’t wait! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
