Actual discuss

TBH it’s been a bit onerous for me to weblog recently. The nutshell model is that the weblog panorama has been additional tough… I’ll share extra in an upcoming put up. For now, I’m attempting to simply take pleasure in a 90s summer season with the women (swimming, curler skating, time with pals, going to the mall) and reminiscing on our AMAZING trip to Japan and Korea.

We ate SO a lot scrumptious meals that I nonetheless take into consideration each day, and I wished to share a number of the highlights in right now’s put up

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 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 the whole lot muscat flavored.

(in the event 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 avenue distributors. The sashimi is the very best I’ve had in my whole 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 in some way 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 prime 5 culinary expertise for me. I went to e book a desk prematurely 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-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 out there!

There have been solely seven seats within the restaurant, and the whole lot 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 the whole lot is coated in Panko breadcrumbs and fried. Every taste profile was utterly completely 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 normally we’re not in a position to 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 least 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 home made 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 in the event you’re going to Tokyo and have gluten-free pals 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 completely different choices, you already know? It’s price mentioning right here that all the 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.
