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 making an attempt to only get pleasure from 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 day by day, and I needed to share among the highlights in right now’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 superb meals, desserts, snacks and drinks. Sushi, onigiri, pasta, fried hen, 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 the whole lot muscat flavored.
(for those who 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 one of the best!
Tsujiki fish market
The fish market is lined with a whole bunch of meals stands and road 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 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 have been candy and lightweight, and in some way 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 ebook a desk prematurely once I was in search of gluten-free dinner choices, nevertheless it 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 change into obtainable!
There have been solely seven seats within the restaurant, and the whole lot was made contemporary in home by chef Sû.
I began with a crisp and candy glass of glowing sake.
Every part is gluten-free and the kushiage consists of skewers. It’s a preferred Japanese dish and the whole lot is coated in Panko breadcrumbs and fried. Every taste profile was fully totally different, utilizing numerous 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 in a position to eat fried or crispy issues as a result of… gluten.
Although the skewers have been fried, they have been gentle, cripspy, not in the slightest degree greasy, and extremely flavorful.
A number 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 do-it-yourself apple ginger warabi mochi
Chef Sû is really 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 for those who’re going to Tokyo and have gluten-free associates 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, ? It’s price mentioning right here that the entire 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 buddy: what are a few of your all-time favourite trip meals?
