Sushi with O


When O rustled up an impromptu lunch, we went to Miyu for some easy proteins and carbs. I like its reasonable pricing. Sure, you might not get the best cuts of fish here, and the rice isn't at the quality I expect but at least it's tasty. For the prices, the quality at Miyu is decent enough. 

There're smaller lunch bento in terms of tuna maki, wagyu beef cheek or unagi, et cetera; those come with a small salad and a miso soup. That's perfect for any casual lunches. Today, O and I opted for the $98++ omakase set because we honestly can't eat that much nowadays. 

Our chosen set comes with soup and some cooked items, ten pieces of sushi and a handroll, and a mini bowl of chirashi. I was stuffed. We already requested for less rice in our sushi and such. Hehehe. O still loves tuna and enjoyed her otoro sushi. I don't bother with tuna-anything. So the chefs replaced all my fish with alternatives which were fine. Shima aji is always welcomed. I popped an antihistamine so I didn't mind the amaebi and kuruma prawn.

I really shouldn't have, but I caved and had a glass of highball. Heh. It wasn't heavy lah. It went fairly well with the ika tempura and the oilier fish. Hanging out with O is always great. We've been friends for like... almost three decades. OMG. We don't always get to match our schedules; her work travels take her away for months on end. But we can do this four times a year. Heh.
