Harbor Pier 38 Restaurant- Revisit (Oahu, Hawaii)

4/23/2017

Did someone say
Coffee Creme Brulee?

Harbor Restaurant at Pier 38 Honolulu Hawaii (Dessert, Kona Coffee Creme Brulee).

Desert of the day-- Kona Coffee Creme Brulee-- $10. It was luscious and creamy. Other types of Creme Brulee are offered regularly.

We had lunch at Harbor Restaurant at Pier 38 once again and I just wanted to share a few new pictures.
By now, I've lost track of the times my Fiance's been here...without me.

But I would have to say this is one of our newest favorite restaurant on the island.
Their food and service is always great!

Fuwari Izakaya Restaurant Review (Kanazawa, Japan).

FUWARI Kanazawa Izakaya (風和利金沢市居酒屋) Snow Crab with Roe Winter Special, hiohio.net blog.

Seasonal Special (Snow crab filled with roe). You can't get it any fresher than this!

Just a short walk after Omi-cho Market, FUWARI is restaurant worth a visit.
Sure, you will be tempted to try out all of the beautiful seafood while passing by the market,
but if you can manage to walk pass the seafood temptation you will
find FUWARI to be a treat!

Mouriya Kobe, eating affordable beef steak (モーリヤ神戸ビーフ).

Years ago, one of our friends mentioned they ate Kobe Beef in Kobe
and it was one of the most amazing meals they've had to-date.
Of course we were sold on the idea---just not the $200 (++) per piece price tag.

Kobe Animal Kingdom Japan visit (Ring Tailed Lemurs).

Their Ring-tailed Lemurs get to run around freely and cuddle!

We enjoy seeing animals on our trips a lot.
While we thought Ueno Zoo in Tokyo was full of things to see,
Kobe Animal Kingdom now has a special place in our hearts.

Wa Yamamura: Affordable Three Michelin Star Meal in Nara (Japan)-- Worth the visit?

4/5/2017

1 Comment

Wa Yamamura Nara Japan (Abalone Soup), 3 Michelin Star dining Kansai.

Soup with Abalone dumpling, White Jews Ears and Japanese Dashi.

Finding an affordable 3 star restaurant is kind of like trying to find the ONE.
Surely it exists, but quite rare.

So when my Fiance's family told me they wanted to eat Kaiseki
(multi-course Japanese meal), I looked into the following criteria for the ideal restaurant:

1. It has to be good but didn't cost an arm and a leg.
2. Family run for a more authentic feel.
3. English menus.
4. Easy to get to.

Wa Yamamura fits these and more.

The best thing about eating a meal like this is that you don't even have to pick from the menu,
just how much you want to spend (their introductory Kaiseki starts at 6,000 Yen).
