March 28, 2010: Tokyo Vi

for a repast the hateful solar daytime before, nosotros hadn't had fourth dimension to stick to a greater extent than or less in addition to depository fiscal establishment check out the Sony building or the Toy Park. In the end, neither of them especially thrilled us - at that spot was a distinct lack of puppy robots! These don't count:




Nevertheless, our fourth dimension inwards Ginza was a pleasant plenty means to exceed a grayness afternoon before making our means to Roppongi for dinner.

We were bully to depository fiscal establishment check out Eat More Greens, some other selection from our eating seat guide. In contrast to our dejeuner at Saishokukenbi, Eat More Greens takes its inspiration from the New York cafe scene. The carte du jour includes falafel, pasta in addition to doughnuts, in addition to it's tardily to chat alongside the staff inwards English. (Matt relayed to us before that the surface area houses a lot of expats.) The carte du jour clearly states potential allergens inwards each dish, from milk in addition to eggs through to wheat in addition to soy, in addition to the walls in addition to staff T-shirts tout slogans similar "all yous necessitate is dearest in addition to vegetable" in addition to "I piece of job a grin when I swallow vegetables!!".

I thoroughly enjoyed the avocado salad in addition to spiced refried beans inwards the taco-rice (1200円 $13.80, pictured inwards the foreground). But it would conduct maintain been prissy to conduct maintain a few to a greater extent than tortilla chips (there were three) in addition to I couldn't piece of job far through all the rice - it was prepared inwards a real Japanese style, pasty in addition to chopstick-friendly in addition to non plumbing fixtures alongside the Tex-Mex vibe at all. Michael similarly enjoyed the freshness of the greenish vege curry (1200円 $13.80, pictured inwards the background) but wasn't that wowed past times the curry sauce.

Having noticed a cute hand-drawn sign advertising their special apple tree pie, Michael was amenable to dessert. Unfortunately they were all out of that pie, in addition to the similarly attractive slice of berry pie nosotros saw some other client eating seemed to endure the concluding one. There was nada for it but to endeavor their chocolate goodies on for size. These didn't disappoint - Michael had a vegan chocolate gateau (650円 $7.50) in addition to the berries in addition to vegan cream on the side were only right. Meanwhile, I focussed on their extensive doughnut carte du jour in addition to sampled the Black Out (320円 $3.70). Shape aside, I idea it was to a greater extent than cakey than doughnutty (too niggling yeast, perhaps?) but it was chocolate all the means - doughnut, cream, glaze in addition to biscuit sprinkles were all dosed alongside cocoa. H5N1 sweetness destination to this fourth dimension inwards Tokyo.
