Actual speak
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 attempting to only get pleasure from a 90s summer time with the women (swimming, curler skating, time with mates, going to the mall) and reminiscing on our AMAZING journey to Japan and Korea.
We ate SO a lot scrumptious meals that I nonetheless take into consideration every day, and I needed to share a few of the highlights in at the moment’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 filled with superb meals, desserts, snacks and drinks. Sushi, onigiri, pasta, fried rooster, 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 every little thing muscat flavored.
(in case you 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 a whole lot of meals stands and avenue 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 individuals 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 one way or the other 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 high 5 culinary expertise for me. I went to e book a desk upfront once I was on the lookout for gluten-free dinner choices, however it was booked out. I despatched a message on IG asking to be thought of if they’d any last-minute cancelations, they usually reached out the day earlier than to tell us that spots had turn out to be obtainable!
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.
Every little thing is gluten-free and the kushiage consists of skewers. It’s a preferred Japanese dish and every little thing is coated in Panko breadcrumbs and fried. Every taste profile was fully totally different, utilizing varied 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 capable of eat fried or crispy issues as a result of… gluten.
Regardless that the skewers had been fried, they had been gentle, cripspy, not in the slightest degree 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 selfmade 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 in case you’re going to Tokyo and have gluten-free mates 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 finest 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 value 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 women and was so candy and pleasant.
So inform me good friend: what are a few of your all-time favourite trip meals?
My different high meals are:
– Alinea in Chicago
– The seaside membership in Mykonos
– Zucchini pasta in Sorrento
– Al pastor taco in Mexico with a Mexican coke
