Actual discuss
TBH it’s been a bit arduous for me to weblog recently. The nutshell model is that the weblog panorama has been additional tough… I’ll share extra in an upcoming submit. For now, I’m attempting to only take pleasure in 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 each day, and I needed to share a number of the highlights in in the present day’s submit
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 wonderful meals, desserts, snacks and drinks. Sushi, onigiri, pasta, fried hen, sandwiches, smoothies, it was all unbelievable. After all, I loved the viral drinks (the C1000 is the very best), a number of tuna onigiri, and every part 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 the very best!
Tsujiki fish market
The fish market is lined with a whole bunch of meals stands and road distributors. The sashimi is the very best 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 have been candy and light-weight, and someway 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 guide a desk upfront after I was searching for gluten-free dinner choices, but it surely was booked out. I despatched a message on IG asking to be thought of if that they had any last-minute cancelations, and so they reached out the day earlier than to tell us that spots had develop into accessible!
There have been solely seven seats within the restaurant, and every part 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 every part is coated in Panko breadcrumbs and fried. Every taste profile was utterly totally different, utilizing numerous 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 capable of eat fried or crispy issues as a result of… gluten.
Though the skewers have been fried, they have been mild, cripspy, not in the slightest degree greasy, and extremely flavorful.
A few 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 should you’re going to Tokyo and have gluten-free mates or relations.
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 totally different choices, you realize? It’s price 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 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 prime meals are:
– Alinea in Chicago
– The seaside membership in Mykonos
– Zucchini pasta in Sorrento
– Al pastor taco in Mexico with a Mexican coke
