Actual speak
TBH it’s been a bit onerous for me to weblog these days. 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 simply take pleasure in a 90s summer time with the women (swimming, curler skating, time with associates, 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 wished to share among the highlights in right now’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 wonderful 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 very best), a number of tuna onigiri, and every part 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 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 lot 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 lightweight, and someway 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 upfront once I was searching for gluten-free dinner choices, but it surely was booked out. I despatched a message on IG asking to be thought-about if that they had any last-minute cancelations, and so they reached out the day earlier than to tell us that spots had turn into accessible!
There have been solely seven seats within the restaurant, and every part 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 preferred Japanese dish and every part is coated in Panko breadcrumbs and fried. Every taste profile was utterly totally 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 normally 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 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 do-it-yourself apple ginger warabi mochi
Chef Sû is actually an artist and so extremely proficient. He doesn’t communicate 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 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 finest potato salad I’ve had in my life. I had one other glowing sake simply to strive the totally different choices, ? It’s value mentioning right here that all the restaurant servers we encountered have been so pretty; 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:
– The seashore membership in Mykonos
– Al pastor taco in Mexico with a Mexican coke
