Another October in Keria Japanese Restaurant

Have I mentioned that the zephyrs of autumn have been sweeping us through the doors of Keria? It happened again. Those rolling winds!

Today's otoshi was cold grilled chicken with onions. Not one of the better otoshi they have.

Shirako ponzu's on the menu. The chilled milt was creamy and refreshingly delicious with the ponzu.

We had reserved a portion of sudachi soba for tonight. The chilled tsuyu was smoky from the bonito with a refreshing citrus from the sudachi.

So good that we drained it.

Thinly sliced gyutan stir fried with sweet young leeks. This was one of those times when the meat was both chewy and enjoyable at the same time.

We had an order of saikyo buri.

And matsutake tai gohan. The mushrooms were much tastier grilled like the last time. Didn't impart much flavour cooked this way. Tai was firm and tender. We saved the ponzu from the shirako and added them to portions of the rice.

There was pudding on the board. Ordered it out of curiosity. Did not expect pre-packaged dessert.

Tasted eggy and had burnt sugar syrup at the bottom.
