Actual speak

TBH it’s been a bit laborious for me to weblog currently. The nutshell model is that the weblog panorama has been further 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 associates, 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 day by day, and I needed to share a number of the highlights in as we speak’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 hen, sandwiches, smoothies, it was all unbelievable. After all, I loved the viral drinks (the C1000 is the perfect), a number of tuna onigiri, and all the things 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 the entire frozen muscat treats, gummies, and mints.

All of us had so many onigiri 🙂 Tuna and mayo was the perfect!

Tsujiki fish market

The fish market is lined with a whole lot of meals stands and avenue distributors. The sashimi is the perfect 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 had been candy and light-weight, 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 prime 5 culinary expertise for me. I went to e book a desk upfront after I was searching for gluten-free dinner choices, however it was booked out. I despatched a message on IG asking to be thought-about if they’d any last-minute cancelations, and so they reached out the day earlier than to tell us that spots had turn into out there!

There have been solely seven seats within the restaurant, and all the things was made recent 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 well-liked Japanese dish and all the things is coated in Panko breadcrumbs and fried. Every taste profile was utterly totally different, utilizing numerous meats, veggies, fish, and seasonal elements. This felt like an additional particular deal with for P and me, as a result of often we’re not in a position to eat fried or crispy issues as a result of… gluten.

Despite the fact that the skewers had been fried, they had been gentle, 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 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 suggest 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, you understand? It’s value mentioning right here that the entire restaurant servers we encountered had 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.
