"ika" would be "squid" in Japanese.

Well, I was served fish sticks of some sort. I am pretty sure it was supposed to be Japanese food. I dunno. It may have been Korean.

Well, my fiancee and I went to our favorite Japanese restaurant here in Austin for New Years. (Celebrated a little later because I work nights.) I tend to go for the "series of small things" she tends to go for the more traditional western pattern of courses. Here's what it was:

Me:
1) Pork and Vegetable Gyoza (I know, it's technically Chinese, but the place that we go uses Japanese style and ingredients in everything.P

2) Misu Shiru

3) Tamago (x2)

4) Vegetable Tempura

Her:

1) Pork and Vegetable Gyoza (see above)

2) Clear Soup

3) Hibachi tenderloin

I made Ramen from scratch (not instant). My wife was very surprised that I knew how to make the broth. It came out great.

Very good, but if you made the ramen noodles from scratch I am even more impressed. That takes practice ..... or incredible luck.

Onigiri for golf - 01-09-2010, 01:34 AM

Onigiri is the perfect lunch on golf course. Easy to handle and eat, and not messy like hot dog. In fact, I will go Calippe this coming Sunday. I also carry hot houjicha in a thermo bottle in this season. You don't want to spoil a calorie burning activity with calorie filled junk food and drink, right?
