We dropped by this place for a quick bite to eat, where they served pinchos for only 2 euros each.
From the ones pictured below, the salmon with cream cheese was great, and the one with cooked pork.
Chikarashi
Tried out this sushi-bowl place in lower midtown. I got their signature dish, the sichuan chili salmon. The location we went to was on 27th street (this place is a fast food chain in New York).
I could go to this place again, but one thing that I did notice is that the mayo sauce was kinda thick.
Sushi Confidential
Overall, a great find (and it’s right next to the parking garage I always park at in San Pedro Square).
For a drink, I believe I got the Samurai Sunset )it was a really good twist of a mai tai).
For special rolls, we got the the classified rainbow and the dragon roll, both of which I would get again. We also ordered a salmon roll (which was pretty standard).
We also got beef tataki, and shrimp tempura, both which I liked. The only thing we got that I didn’t like were these tuna tacos ( it sure why, but I thought it was wayyyh to greasy for my taste).
Update (11/4/2018): We went back to this place, and one thing we ordered that we didn’t order before was the Korean short ribs as a starter. Definitely something to order again (and hands down, the classified rainbow roll was still the best roll).
Chubby Noodles
Overall, good food.
For drinks, I got a flight of sake (for next time, I would probably get the other flight that has the milky sake in it, which started with “No body’s …”). Of course, usually I can’t tell the difference between different sakes.
For the main we got the spicy garlic noodles with chicken (it wasn’t actually really spiced), the chubby fried chicken (which basically reminded me of chicken karaage), pork ribs (tasted good), and this salmon dish (which I think had some sort of cheese in the middle, which was also good).
Bouchon
We got the fixed price meal.
They started us off with some French pastries. From the picture below, the lemon cupcake tasted the best.
For drinks, I got a mimosa and mojito. The mojito here was better than the mimosa.
For the appetizer, I chose the salmon salad. It was pretty delicious (definitely made the right choice).
For my main, I got the corn beef. It was ok, but I think I should have gotten the lobster instead.
For dessert, they have us some sweets (all of it was good, except I didn’t try the sugar coated on pictured below).
Mon Ami Gabi
Service at this restaurant was slow, but the food was really good.
For my drink, I got a mango martini (not on the menu, but the bartender was excited to make it). It was just the right sweetness.
For food, I had the salmon, which came with mashed peas. MMM. I also got a side of macaroni gatton (spelling?). Also really amazing.
Overall, I left pretty full and satisfied.
