How do we celebrate end of semester? By eating, of course! Nick actually had a dream about Raku the night before - guess you can imagine how much we were looking forward to it.
A pitcher of Soporo and Raku tofu started us off nicely. We've learned to order a bunch of stuff right from the start and then add a bit as we go for the best rhythm. From the board: shrimp dumplings were beautifully delicate and oh-so-slightly seasoned; the pork ribs performed exactly as described (to tender they fell off the bone), and the whole fish (sorry, can't remember the name) was super fresh and delicate.
My regular grilled must-haves: tomatoes, pork cheek, juicy fried chicken (no green chilies tonight - sad face).
Sashimi salad is always a treat, and the fried shrimp are crunchy goodness (yes, head to almost tail). Mmmm....
