Actual discuss
TBH it’s been a bit exhausting for me to weblog recently. The nutshell model is that the weblog panorama has been further tough… I’ll share extra in an upcoming publish. For now, I’m making an attempt to only get pleasure from a 90s summer time with the ladies (swimming, curler skating, time with pals, going to the mall) and reminiscing on our AMAZING trip to Japan and Korea.
We ate SO a lot scrumptious meals that I nonetheless take into consideration day by day, and I needed to share a few of the highlights in at this time’s publish
the place we ate in Tokyo (and gluten-free picks!)
7-11
We had 7-11 each single day.
It’s humorous as a result of the 7-11 within the US leaves…a lot to be desired… however the 7-11s in Japan are full of superb meals, desserts, snacks and drinks. Sushi, onigiri, pasta, fried hen, sandwiches, smoothies, it was all unimaginable. In fact, I loved the viral drinks (the C1000 is the most effective), a number of tuna onigiri, and all the pieces muscat flavored.
(if you happen to go, discover these!! And ship me some please lol)
We fell in love with muscat and naturally we stocked up on the entire frozen muscat treats, gummies, and mints.
All of us had so many onigiri 🙂 Tuna and mayo was the most effective!
Tsujiki fish market
The fish market is lined with tons of of meals stands and road distributors. The sashimi is the most effective I’ve had in my total life. We additionally had a container of muscat grapes (so candy and crunchy) and I additionally noticed folks strolling round with skewers, crab legs, omelets, caramelized candy potatoes, and sushi rolls.
We additionally stumbled upon a hidden gem that had fluffly gluten-free soufle pancakes.
They had been candy and lightweight, and in some way not egg-y in any respect. We needed to return however we didn’t find yourself having time.
Omakase meal at Gluten-free Kushiage Sû
This meal was a prime 5 culinary expertise for me. I went to ebook a desk prematurely after I was on the lookout for gluten-free dinner choices, nevertheless it was booked out. I despatched a message on IG asking to be thought-about if they’d any last-minute cancelations, and so they reached out the day earlier than to tell us that spots had develop into out there!
There have been solely seven seats within the restaurant, and all the pieces was made contemporary in home by chef Sû.
I began with a crisp and candy glass of glowing sake.
All the pieces is gluten-free and the kushiage consists of skewers. It’s a preferred Japanese dish and all the pieces is coated in Panko breadcrumbs and fried. Every taste profile was fully totally different, utilizing numerous meats, veggies, fish, and seasonal substances. This felt like an additional particular deal with for P and me, as a result of normally we’re not in a position to eat fried or crispy issues as a result of… gluten.
Despite the fact that the skewers had been fried, they had been gentle, cripspy, not in the least greasy, and extremely flavorful.
A number of the highlights:
This braised beef tendon inside deep-fried tofu in dashi broth
Mackerel marinated in plum vinegar and sabayon sauce
Gluten-free crab cream croquet
The meal completed off with selfmade apple ginger warabi mochi
Chef Sû is actually an artist and so extremely proficient. He doesn’t converse English, however we used google translate with no probs in any respect. I extremely extremely suggest this expertise if you happen to’re going to Tokyo and have gluten-free pals or members of the family.
Ginza Senryo
We went for late-night sushi one night and shared platters of rolls, sashimi, salad, pickled veggie, and greatest potato salad I’ve had in my life. I had one other glowing sake simply to strive the totally different choices, you already know? It’s price mentioning right here that the entire restaurant servers we encountered had been so beautiful; the service was above and past, however particularly at this restaurant. The server was crouched down speaking to the ladies and was so candy and pleasant.
So inform me buddy: what are a few of your all-time favourite trip meals?
My different prime meals are:
