I'm happy biting into the edamame which reminds of of boiled peanuts one can obtain off the street stalls back home in Bangalore.
The girls take notes for their food reviews... and discuss the degree and depth of flavours, analysing and dissecting every bit of the meal.
Cari is excited about the Takoyaki: light, crispy octopus that is inserted into a vegetable dough ball served with Japanese BBQ sauce, mayonnaise and bonnito flakes. This was good, except the octopus was a bit tough.
This platter featured cooked tuna salad sushi rolls, California rolls with imitation roe, tuna, salmon and white snapper sashimi, prawn and veggie tempura, beef shabu shabu and age-gyoza: deep fried dumplings filled with minced pork and vegetables.
Kiku Kawa, grilled eel with rice was superb. The bottom of the dish had crusted caramelised burnt rice that the girls loved.
The best spider rolls I have eaten in ages.
Arguing over what to get - they still weren't full after all that!
Lastly, Katsudon: deep fried pork fillet with Japanese style omelette served on a bed of rice.
Great post can't wait to see the one of your bday!!!!
