Anyone ever had grilled Unagi before? How about some authentic Tonkotsu Ramen? Any Japanese food lovers? My first time with Unagi a couple days ago, I was NOT disappointed.
@bijouxbroussard I had heard on a video that it was like top of the line stuff. I was hesitant but when I saw it on the menu I was like...ohhh we are gonna chow tonight! Lmao
@huskyguy89 I also like natto (fermented soybeans) which is an acquired taste. When my father was stationed in Japan after the Korean conflict, he was introduced to it. Years later, he would go to Japan Town in the city and bring some home. That’s how I got used to it. Mom would make us eat it out in the garage ! 😅
@Magnolia21 I'm sorry it's so far..the place I tried this is about 800 or so miles away. :( I feel ya on that, unrelated but I love your Lulu profile pic. :)
Absolutely love it! Sushi and Sashimi are big favorites, plus real ramen, yakisoba and omurice (home style not the fancy restaurant stuff), Hakusai No Tsukemono (fermented cabbage) and many more - had a Japanese girlfriend when I lived over there and ate nothing but.
@Soossie I've never had octopus soup before! The ramen we had was the first authentic style I've ever had. I don't know if I can ever go back to the package stuff lol
@huskyguy89 I will. I'll have to make a special trip. I don't eat out very often. I've found their menu online before. I'll look at it again. Thanks for the recommendation. 🍣
I like miso soup, ginger salad dressing, sushi rolls that have cooked meat in them like crab or lobster, green tea ice cream, and edamame. I don't like fish so it rules out a lot of items, but I like the seasoning in Japanese cuisine.
Japanesse is a favourite, it is always my choice when we go out to eat ( I think my husband has stopped asking where I would like to go) and unagi is delicious!
@Morrigan lol my girl is a pizza lover (same as I am) so our go-to is usually pizza. Lol but man I loved Japanese food. I'm looking for places here back home lmao
I think my all time favorite Japanese food is curry. We have it nearly twice a month in my house. Taiyaki with bean paste filling is probably my second favorite.
@huskyguy89 There was a tiny shop ( long since closed) in NYC’s Greenwich village that was run by a Japanese man and staff where I’d often go for such good fried dishes. Miss the place.
@DDonde sushi was one of those foods I was wary of at first..(plus I don't eat a lot of fish) but when I tried it and realized there's wasn't any "fishy" flavor to it. I wondered what else I missed out on..lol you see the end result 🤣
