Actual speak
TBH it’s been a bit onerous for me to weblog currently. The nutshell model is that the weblog panorama has been additional tough… I’ll share extra in an upcoming put up. For now, I’m attempting to simply take pleasure in a 90s summer season with the ladies (swimming, curler skating, time with associates, 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 each day, and I wished to share a few of the highlights in at present’s put up
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 rooster, sandwiches, smoothies, it was all unbelievable. In fact, I loved the viral drinks (the C1000 is one of the best), a number of tuna onigiri, and every little thing muscat flavored.
(should you go, discover these!! And ship me some please lol)
We fell in love with muscat and naturally we stocked up on all the frozen muscat treats, gummies, and mints.
All of us had so many onigiri 🙂 Tuna and mayo was one of the best!
Tsujiki fish market
The fish market is lined with a whole lot of meals stands and avenue distributors. The sashimi is one of the best I’ve had in my complete 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 have been candy and lightweight, and by some means not egg-y in any respect. We wished to return however we didn’t find yourself having time.
Omakase meal at Gluten-free Kushiage Sû
This meal was a high 5 culinary expertise for me. I went to e book a desk prematurely after I was in search of gluten-free dinner choices, nevertheless it was booked out. I despatched a message on IG asking to be thought of if they’d any last-minute cancelations, and so they reached out the day earlier than to tell us that spots had change into out there!
There have been solely seven seats within the restaurant, and every little thing was made recent 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 well-liked Japanese dish and every little thing is coated in Panko breadcrumbs and fried. Every taste profile was utterly completely different, utilizing varied meats, veggies, fish, and seasonal components. This felt like an additional particular deal with for P and me, as a result of often we’re not in a position to eat fried or crispy issues as a result of… gluten.
Despite the fact that the skewers have been fried, they have been gentle, cripspy, not in the least greasy, and extremely flavorful.
Among 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 do-it-yourself apple ginger warabi mochi
Chef Sû is really 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 advocate this expertise should you’re going to Tokyo and have gluten-free associates 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 attempt the completely different choices, you realize? It’s value mentioning right here that all the restaurant servers we encountered have 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 pal: what are a few of your all-time favourite trip meals?
My different high meals are:
