Returning to Soba Kuroha. Earlier entry: July 25.
A salad with a surprise: 'sansai' mountain veggies dressed in wasabi sauce that packs a (much) more-powerful-than-expected punch.
What to pair with salt-pickled bonito guts? Why, cream cheese, of course. Nope, not overkill.
'Itawasa,' the traditional recipe of 'kamaboko' cured fish loaves, sliced & served with a sticky dip.
Pork belly with cabbage. Satisfying simplicity.
Japanese or French? Whichever, it's wonderful at Kuroha: Rustic pork liver paste with baguette.
Grilled ox tongue with miso sauce, juicy-springy enough to satisfy.
Ugly Fish alert! Seasoned loach cooked with egg in hot pot. Tastes like it looks.
Herring boiled in sweetened soy sauce. Also not the prettiest fish in the ocean.
We're shallow & superficial: We prefer this lovely-looking sashimi.
Mugi & Imo shochu, alongside Gin Tonic & Bombay Sapphire.
