| Your meal always comes with a free salad that includes incredibly delicious braised tofu. |
 |
| We were charmed by the adorable soy sauce pitcher and matching salt and pepper shakers. |
 |
| We loved the tofu in the salad so much that we asked for other tofu recommendations. This fried tofu was so good that we ate the entire block and wished we had more. |
 |
| We had to ask for the tofu rice pot to be made with chicken since that wasn't an option on the menu. Tofu is not just for vegetarians, people! |
 |
| Me: Miko, what is this a picture of? A fried hand?? Miko: That was fried fish. Remember, you said it tasted like fish fingers! Me: I do not remember that. But it sounds like something I would say. |
 |
| You also get free ice cream! I think there was a choice of flavors, but I don't remember exactly what they were. We think it was probably pineapple...with mango and strawberry sauce? Whatever it was, it was good. I think we went with whatever the tall waiter suggested. |

Notes:
- The tofu is just so very delicious here. We could eat a mountain of the braised tofu in that complimentary salad. The fried tofu appetizer over a bowl of rice would make a fantastic, ultra-cheap meal.
- The chicken rice pot tastes like something a traditional Japanese housewife might make for dinner on a weekday for her family. A bit bland, but homey, simple, and nutritious.
- The restaurant has a nice, cozy feel, with low lighting and Sharpie scribbles on the walls. It would be a nice place for a date.
