Actual discuss

TBH it’s been a bit exhausting for me to weblog these days. 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 get pleasure from a 90s summer season with the ladies (swimming, curler skating, time with mates, 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 few of the highlights in as we speak’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 unimaginable. In fact, I loved the viral drinks (the C1000 is the most effective), a number of tuna onigiri, and all the things muscat flavored.

(when 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 most effective!

Tsujiki fish market

The fish market is lined with lots of of meals stands and road distributors. The sashimi is the most effective I’ve had in my total 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 by some means 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 once I was searching for gluten-free dinner choices, nevertheless it was booked out. I despatched a message on IG asking to be thought of if they’d any last-minute cancelations, they usually 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 all the things was made recent in home by chef Sû.

I began with a crisp and candy glass of glowing sake.

Every thing is gluten-free and the kushiage consists of skewers. It’s a preferred Japanese dish and all the things is coated in Panko breadcrumbs and fried. Every taste profile was fully completely different, utilizing varied meats, veggies, fish, and seasonal elements. 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 mild, 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 selfmade apple ginger warabi mochi

Chef Sû is actually an artist and so extremely gifted. He doesn’t converse English, however we used google translate with no probs in any respect. I extremely extremely suggest this expertise when 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 finest potato salad I’ve had in my life. I had one other glowing sake simply to strive the completely different choices, you recognize? 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 ladies and was so candy and pleasant.
