Kemuri Japanese Baru

This place was awesome for several reasons. One, it has a full bar, and two, the food was great (but not cheap).

For drinks, I ordered the Kemuri Manhattan ( I gotta say it was a bit too Smokey for my taste). My second drink, however, was amazing. It was the RWC Breeze (Vidka, April, pineapple juice). It was just the right amount of sweetness and tasted refreshing.

For the main dishes, we ordered the soft shell crab, the Kobe style beef (grill), shiitake mushrooms skewer, chicken karaage , beef tataki kale salad, and the uni paella. Everything was great except for the mushrooms (they seemed under cooked or dry).

Overall, I do like how this place has a simple, yet intimate feeling when you eat here.

For drinks, I got the country lawyer and a Manhattan. The former was pretty good, while the Manhattan (not pictured) was pretty bad.

For food, we shared a bunch of dishes. We got the bone marrow, the steak tartare, the tempura butternut squash, the pork chop and the cheese cauliflower. Everything but the pork chop was really good.

For dessert, I got this chocolate peanut butter thing. I would not get it again. The other dessert (I forget the name) on the other hand, I would definitely get again.

Nusr-Et Miami

I have to say, the service here was pretty good. They replaced our cutlery after every single serving, and they even folded my napkin when I went to the restroom.

Now going on to the food…

So the drink I got is the Nusr-Et Manhattan. It was good (sweeter and more strong than the usual Manhattan).

The appetizer they brought was this meet schaschlik. It was really good.

From top (going clockwise): Istanbul sirloin, Rib Eye, and Rib Eye with mustard (with bone that had some fat). All of it tasted great (we ordered them medium, and they turned out medium well, which was perfect), but I think the best one was the Rib Eye with mustard.
