First night back from vacation and we're hobbits. First breakfast, second breakfast as the segue to brunch. Lunch was a long time ago, and dinner is 2 hours away thanks to the line at Kura.
We need something to satisfy while when we're on a waitlist 15 people deep.
Fear not, there's a fresh Shrimp Rice Burger to hold us over without filling us up. The patty has a satisfying, deep-fried crunch, and the grilled rice is just firm enough to give it a sandwich feel.
Yakatori is aplenty, but it's overpriced for what it is. The Chicken Skin has the signature sauce but it's soggy in the middle. Not soft, soggy. Pork Belly-Wrapped Enoki Mushrooms are hard and dry, and the Beef Tongue is tender and moist and good enough.
Skip the sticks and stick to the snacks. The burger is the best, and the curry looks like it would hit the spot. I wouldn't pick this place over Kura, and I definitely wouldn't choose it over the other chains, but if I'm in the area and in a hurry, I'm sure I could do worse.
