The wait, the choices, the restlessness, the noise levels, there are lots of variants and inevitably lots of points of stress. In short, the restaurant experience is rarely as enjoyable as you hope it will be.
That said, we never give up trying. You see, we love eating out. Trying new places. We are always hopeful. We often leave frustrated.
Tonight was different. I would go as far to say, we had a break through.
Clearly the venue had everything to do with it, but our outing was a roaring success, according to all four of us!
We took the tram into Germany, something that we really enjoy doing. We are so lucky to live in this corner of the world. And we headed to an Asian restaurant we had tried once before at lunch time.
However at night, the menu had a twist.
It was food on a running band, a Kaiten band.
It was so exciting.
We sat down and already the mutliple plates had begun to circulate.
Little plates of sushi came round, both nigiri and rolls.
Shortly after came grilled prawns, rice, noodles, prawn crackers, pork satay. And then came chips! They clearly knew their clientele. We were so suprised and thrilled with chips (such gourmets we are) we took a photo!! (and a few plates full!)
Then there was cucumber with plum sauce, duck, chicken and brocolli, spare ribs, prawns in chilli, algae salad, beef and onion. Did I mention the chips??
Dessert was equally yummy, with deep friend bananas, oranges, pineapple, melon, ice cream, vanilla pudding and grapes. I think by then the chips had stopped!
It was so much fun, the kids enjoyed picking their favourite things, chosing things for us. The thrill when something new was spotted, was just so much entertainment.
So tonight we cracked the code. We will be back, dear Kaiten Band!!
Such a treat.
So what is your code? Do you have a winning formula?
