Ok, I have been a bad Diser long enough! Let's finish this up!
So after our snack around the world day, I planned dinner at Tokyo Dining. We had never been and at the time I booked it did not like sushi. I figured we wouldn't be super hungry so we would pick & choose from the things we did like. Well, DS and I tried sushi at my sisters and were now really looking forward to this meal!
I started with a sake-rita which was really good. Tasted like a slightly sweeter regular margarita
Here's some menu pics ...
DS and I shared a tuna roll
This was truly delicious. Being sushi novists I don't have much to compare it to but we really enjoyed it.
For appetizers, DS has the Wafu Ribs - sake, soy and ginger-braised pork ribs
I didn't try these but he enjoyed them.
I had the Assorted Tempura - shrimp, chicken breast, and seasonal vegetables served with Japanese Tempura dipping sauce but gave the shrimp to DH
DH had the Kakuni - braised pork belly that has been slowly cooked in sake, soy sauce and ginger, served with spicy yellow mustard
And the picture is so blurry. Again, I didn't try it but he enjoyed it.
For entrees, DH had the Sankai - breaded and fried mix of chicken, pork and shrimp
DS had the Tori - chicken breast tempura with veggies
And I had Chicken Katsu - Panko crusted boneless breast chicken lightly fried
Look at all that food! And we all thought it was just amazing. My chicken was the best chicken cutlet I have ever had. Light and crispy, not greasy at all. I shared some of Andrew's tempura veggies and they were perfect. The miso soup was nicely flavored. Everything was beyond our expectations.
Needless to say, we were too full for dessert
Total dining plan cost was $101.55. Total OOP for the sushi roll, my drink and I think a beer for DH was $26.63.
This is a definitely go back for us. I do have an ADR for Andrew and I in November thinking we can easily share one of those platters of food and a sushi roll. Course I have already made several changes to my November plans so we will see if this one sticks.!
As we left, we stopped to watch Illuminations on the porch. Very cool bonus view!
All in all a super great day!
