Although the weather here is still warm, the feeling of Autumn has arrived and that means it’s time to eat some cooler-weather food! Nabe is a hotpot type of dish, and today we had a yummy nabe of tofu, chicken meatballs, flat rice noodles, and assorted veggies. It was kind of a “clean out the fridge” meal, but oh-so-good!
The food was hearty and hot – in fact I was sweating a little bit during the meal. 😄
I hope you had a good day. またね～
Mariko had a couple of friends over to celebrate a birthday (socially-distanced outside on the deck), and one of the goodies on the menu were delicious oysters! Topped with ikura, tobiko, wasabi, and a dash of ponzu, it was excellent.
Somewhat related, here’s a photo I took of another sea-creature, also deceased:
I hope you had a good day! 😆
DIY sushi at home is so yummy! This time we had some shrimp tempura which was new for our sushi nite. I thought it was pretty good! My favorite has to be the hamachi with avocado and plenty of wasabi. But everything was delicious – what a treat! 🍣❤
Curry Nights are the best! ❤カレーライス
Lots of heat in this one. The eggs don’t look so great (a bit too hard and the eggshells stuck!) but they were yummy. As usual, I ate too much. 😋
We probably shouldn’t eat too much fried food, but how can you resist katsu (deep-fried pork cutlet)? Along with miso soup and shredded cabbage, we had some ume-garlic, which was yummy. My first time trying it!
By the way, Lani likes to eat her dinner while we eat ours, and here she is waiting for us to fill up her food bowl. 🐶
またね～
