Izayoi (Little Tokyo)

Food 06: Downtown LA

A new izakaya opened! My friend recommended it so here we go:

Uni Chawanmushi and Homemade Tofu of the day, DELICIOUS!

The waitress recommended their Seafood Croquette , it's good but still..just croquette. Plum Stingray, crisp and tasty!

Sauteed Oyster, smell so good~ A bit too sweet though. But the Simmered Pork was a let down, the flavor isn't deep enough and meat a bit dry. Can't compare to this.
DSC00261.jpgMost of these are special of the day menu, I can't wait to go back to try new stuffs. There was a bit of a wait on a Thursday night, and we had to see on the counter. Good to find another good izakaya! :D

I don't know what the sauce to the tofu was...spinach maybe? Hence the color. Oh i read news yesterday in HK there was a mass uni poisoning...so scary~~

The interior, the customers...just like Japan!
The tofu looks pretty, why is it green?
Uni chawanmushi sounds fantastic too.
Damn I need to hurry and fix myself some nice uni before the season ends!
