Teppanyaki

For our first dinner out together we went to a small (well, every restaurant is pretty small here) teppanyaki restaurant.

The meal started with a small bowl of gelatinous items. We're still unsure of what most of them were and as Westerners the texture was a bit much for us...



After much translating of the all Japanese menu I went with the oysters and five mushrooms…




and Jules went with the chicken…



The mains were really delicious, but we were all still pretty hungry after the tiny portions. 3 oysters does not a dinner make for this American girl.

It hasn’t been my fave meal thus far and unless we can find a teppanyaki place with better ventilation we may not try it again. My purse smelled like a big piece of fried garlic for about 3 days.
