Eats in Japan
okynomoyaki is the seriously the best thing I ate in all of Japan, absolutely agree with that one!
In Tokyo, sushi at the fish market at Sushi Dei was incredible. We had to wait in line for 2 hours at 8:30am. If you get there earlier the wait is only 45 mins. Amazing.
We had a really good and fun dinner at Tapas Molecular Bar, you can see some of my pictures of it here-:

French in a Flash: Coquilles St. Jacques Pot Pies with Roasted Lemon
Made this the other night and it came out quite nice. I would add more vermouth next time and a bit more cream to make the sauce have a more pronounced flavor. Thank you for such a great idea- who doesn't love pot pie? :)
Grilling: Thai Beef Rolls with Sweet Chili Sauce
this is great,, don't make the meat balls too big and I would actually up the flavors in them, maybe add a bit of grated ginger. I served them in a bowl of rice noodles with mint, cilantro and chili lime sauce
Cook the Book: Southern-Style Fried Chicken Thighs with Garlic Cream
I also wondered about the skinless thighs but made them last night and they were DELISH! garlic cream was a bit hit too!
Sunday Supper: Pancetta-Wrapped Chicken Breast with Leeks and Thyme
made this tonight, the flavors are great however the chicken was really overdone at the 35 minute mark, I'd say check it at 25 minutes and go from there. I also only wrapped 2 slices around each breast- I love pancetta but 7 slices seemed a bit excessive...
Grilling: Five-Spice Short Ribs
these are delicious, we made them yesterday and smoked them for about 5 hours. There was a lot of leftover sauce! we'll be making these again!
Served: Getting Served in Seattle
and I'm guessing the burrito joint was Bimbos but I'm blanking on the bar/gallery set up?
One Good Egg, One Good Idea
I used one egg this morning to make egg salad that I stuffed in a warmed pita for breakfast
Cook the Book: 'The Best Barbecue on Earth'
Argentina for sure! I want to try all those grilled meats on skewers!!!
Cook the Book: Wine Bar Food
I love champagne with Pringles! the salty crunchy chips go so well with the bubbles of a dry champagne! yum!
Cook the Book: Lidia's Italy
After the fennel recipe today I'm thinking of that with a slow roasted salmon to impress the inlaws next week! I really need this book!
Cook the Book: Lidia's Italy
I really like to make homemade pasta and something that maybe not everyone will have had before - wild boar ragu is my favorite.
I really hope I will this! I love Lidia and have been quite interested in getting some of her books ! :D
Häagen-Dazs Flavor Preview Giveaway
I simply must win a chance to try the fleur de sel ice cream!!! omg, I am a very giving person and for this amazing ice cream I will gladly give my time in savoring and appreciating it. and I will share!! well maybe..... (pick me! pick me!)
Eats in Japan
@natamari- yeah I forgot tenmusu and depachikas! sadly, the curry museum closed in 2007...
Eats in Japan
MOS Burger!!! I was meaning to try the more unusual variety (e.g. eel, rice burger, teriyaki, etc.) but I was always too weak to resist spicy MOS cheeseburger.
hmw0029's list is very good, and I would like to add:
- tenmusu (shrimp tempura rice ball) in Nagoya
- Curry Museum in Shin-Yokohama
- hiyoko manju (white sweet bean paste wrapped in a thin layer of... pastry?) at various train stations in Tokyo - good for souvenirs too http://www.hiyoko.co.jp/shohin/hiyoko.html
- conbinis (convenience stores) and department store food sections
Time for a Drink: Ramos Fizz
While you are in NO go to Mr. B's on Royal. Order a Brandy Milk Punch. Starts with softened vanilla ice cream.Better than the bread pudding for desert. or for starters or for that matter make a few the whole meal.. While there go to Herbsaint. Have the Cadilac Sazerac?
Time for a Drink: Ramos Fizz
One of my favorites... in fact, I just saw it on the cocktail menu at Keens Steakhouse!
Time for a Drink: Ramos Fizz
first, yes, it is a fantastic drink - Queen of the egg white / fizz drinks in my book.
I'm impressed with you folks who shake. I could see doing this for one drink, but for any more than that, I use a blender - blend for a couple of seconds without ice, then add some ice and blend some more. One of the forums I'm on recommends using a milkshake type mixer - or a stick mixer - I haven't tried that yet. Cocktails at 80

Muddle together sugar and mint. Let sit for a little while, then add in plenty of fresh lemon juice. Mix in water to taste (seltzer water if you're feeling fancy), adjust sweetness/sourness, strain and serve, please!
Threadless T-Shirt Giveaway: Lemon Aid
Simple syrup, or honey. Lot's of lemon juice. I like tart lemonade!
Threadless T-Shirt Giveaway: Lemon Aid
Simple syrup squeezed with lots of fresh lime juice, fresh lemon juice (not concentrate or powder!) and filtered tap water. Shaken vigorously with a ridiculous amount of ice, and sometimes raspberry stoli.

I loves me the lemonade from Hot Dog On A Stick. So good - and freshly beaten lemons taste so good!
Threadless T-Shirt Giveaway: Lemon Aid
minute maid frozen lemonade and water....ahhh refreshing
Threadless T-Shirt Giveaway: Lemon Aid
I don't have a juicer, so from the store is usually the way I go. But if I do make it... it should be pretty tart, not too sweet. It's about the lemons, not the sugar.

lemon juice, simple syrup, ice, and seltzer water.
Threadless T-Shirt Giveaway: Lemon Aid
Fresh squeezed, simple syrup, pomagrante juice, and soda!
