On our last day in Tokyo, we took my aunt and uncle to this restaurant - Honmura An - to thank them for putting us up those few days. My mom had loved this restaurant when she last went to Tokyo (my aunt and uncle had recommended the place to her), and it was a truly fabulous recommendation. It turned out to be our best meal in Tokyo that trip :)
The boss of Honmura An personally designed a menu for us.
First up: roasted gingko nuts ...
Codfish eggs ... so creamy!
Fried baby potatoes ... somehow Honmura An manages to elevate the most basic and simplest food into a gastronomic delight ... oishi!
Braised radish with smoked duck ...
Tempura prawns, fish. lotus roots, mushrooms etc ...
We were given a choice of soba noodles (their speciality) with sesame sauce ....
I chose soba noodles with uni/sea urchin ... delish!!!!
Fruits to round off the meal ...
