飲啖茶先
Inakaya特別的是它的茶具和sake杯子。若你點的是熱sake﹐老闆娘會端上盤子﹐載著各款其式的sake杯子給你選擇。若然你點茶﹐也有各款不同的茶壺﹐放在手造的陶器上保溫﹐相當別緻。如果桌子大一點﹐就很不錯。
小吃
吃飯前﹐我們點了小吃。有 Maguro Yamakake﹐Salmon Tataki﹐和 Beef robatayaki [爐端燒牛肉]. Salmon Tataki是出奇的讚吃﹐台長覺得這該是全晚最好吃的。從肉質﹐溫度﹐口感﹐到醬汁也做得很好。醬汁是帶一點酸味的﹐沾上三文魚有點像沾了檸檬汁的作用。三文魚片的邊燒得剛剛好﹐是很出色的tataki!
素吃
之後我們點了一些素吃﹐有 Agedashi tofu 和兩款素食卷。
壽司
熱火山卷 [Volcano roll]
既然是Inakaya﹐怎樣也沒可能只serve那樣的壽司。台長決定多給它一個機會﹐追加了熱火山卷。
熱火山卷果然名不虛傳。Presentation相當不錯。至於好不好吃﹐就要看看你愛不愛牛油。熱火山卷的牛肉帶有燒香了的牛油味﹐愛吃肥的台長當然喜歡﹐台長的朋友卻稍嫌味濃。
鲑魚茶泡飯 Salmon Ochazuke
I have tried 熱火山卷 in other Japanese Restaurant before. Most of them just add hot sauce on top of the sushi or just deep fried the rolls. This is the first time I see the real "volcano roll". I would love to try out this restaurant.
ReplyDeletep.s. I love your blog a lot. I enjoy reading the detail descriptions.
Hi Hi Chu Chu, yeah, I had the same experience. Most of them just add hot sauce or deep fried it. Inakaya is a really nice restaurant if you haven't tried it yet. Make sure you call them in advance to make a reservation before you go, they are usually quite packed : ) And Thanks for liking my blog, I like the more cheerful layout of your blog too!
