We were at Nakajima Suisan (一, 二, 三, 四, 五, 六, 七, 八, 九, 十, 十一, 十二, 十三, 十四, 十五, 十六, 十七) one of the recent weekends for a grilled fish teishoku breakfast. A happy meal big breakfast kinda thing involving freshly grilled fish, rice, hot miso soup and some other things.
Got a double up saba mirin. Because an additional portion of fish never hurt. Topped the rice with mentaiko.
Seem to recall it not having so much bones previously. Anyways, it was deliciously savoury on the inside beneath that sweet caramelized mirin glaze on the surface.
Noticed that the saikyo mero looked larger than how I remembered them. Deliciously oily and flavourful as always.
Today's shishamo were disappointingly skinny and were oddly not salted at all. Not as much roe as I would preferred them to have.
do you know if mero is always in their menu ? love mero especially the bony parts where the fats hide
ReplyDeleteAs far as I can recall, yes it is.
