The day finally came....and went so quickly.
Yesterday, we went to some place to eat kickass jap food with Joanne and Michelle's family. The chef was apparently from iron chef, who knows? Main point was the food was awesome. I've never actually been that full after jap food. Last night was just crazy. At first, I was some what unsure about eating raw seafood, and after learning about all the worms and stuff that you can get from eating raw food, that made me even more unsure. But all went well, the sashimi wasn't as scary as i thought it'd be.
The environment of that place was very nice. Although it was a bit squishy, and the chairs could have been more comfortable, it gave a really warm and welcoming feeling. Best of all, it had a massive plasma that accompanied our dinner. The people there were friendly, the food there was awesome....I'd love to go again.
So first up, we had sashimi, and everything raw...there was raw beef....that was nice. There was also raw abalone, lobster, scallops...your usual raw tuna and salmon, raw oysters.....lots of stuff. They were all so good. The abalone, beef and scallops were the best in my opinion. The lobster and jellyfish unfortunately got stuck in between my braces, so I didn't eat much of that. Along with all this raw food, we were also served some egg thing....not sure what it was, but it was pretty good. Had a lot unexpected stuff in it, which was nice.
(from left to right, top to bottom: raw beef (doesn't look very apetising, but it's delicious), sushi, the sashimi after half of it was eaten...should've taken a shot of it before it was eaten; the egg thingy; the lobster and the tempura; and last of all, the scallops baked with cheese.)
I think the next thing we ate was fried gyoza...can't remember. They were nice as well. Or maybe the next thing we ate after all this raw food were the scallops baked with cheese. Anyhow, they were both delicious. Then we were served the tempura...lots of variety, all very nice. The way the food was served on the dishes was amazing. Then last of all game the fruit. The strawberries were a bit too sour, but otherwise, the whole thing was great.Watermelon was juicy, rockmelon was sweet, kiwi was kiwi...don't know how to describe it, strawberries were a bit sour, dragonfruit was not sweet enough....oh and there was pancakes with cream and strawberry on it, they were nice, and there was alos mochi. Overall, the whole meal was very filling and worth what we paid for...actually, I think it was worth more than what we paid for. The majority of what we ait was seafood, and you could taste that the seafood was all very fresh.
I also tried, for the very first time, sake. I'm not sure how to describe the taste, but I really like the feeling of it in your mouth, and as it goes down the throat...
