Actual discuss

TBH it’s been a bit onerous 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 put up. For now, I’m making an attempt to only get pleasure from a 90s summer time 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 every day, and I wished to share a number of the highlights in right this moment’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 filled with wonderful meals, desserts, snacks and drinks. Sushi, onigiri, pasta, fried rooster, sandwiches, smoothies, it was all unbelievable. In fact, I loved the viral drinks (the C1000 is the most effective), a number of tuna onigiri, and all the pieces 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 the entire 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 a whole lot of meals stands and avenue 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 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 light-weight, and by some means 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 on the lookout for gluten-free dinner choices, nevertheless 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 accessible!

There have been solely seven seats within the restaurant, and all the pieces 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 all the pieces is coated in Panko breadcrumbs and fried. Every taste profile was utterly totally different, utilizing varied 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 capable of eat fried or crispy issues as a result of… gluten.

Regardless that the skewers have been fried, they have been mild, 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 selfmade apple ginger warabi mochi

Chef Sû is actually an artist and so extremely proficient. 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 pals 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 totally different choices, you recognize? It’s price mentioning right here that the entire 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.
