different types of vegetarian friendly rolls

Tsunami roll
Tuna, snow crab, salmon, yellowtail, sweet shrimp, avocado, kampyo, tamago, tobiko, cucumber & scallion wrapped in nori.

eel and foie gras nigiri. This was a delicious combination of silky foie gras and sweet eel. Party in my mouth ya'll.

truffled rib eye- the beef was super flavorful and tender
miso cod- a must try on the menu. The fish is already sweet from soaking in miso but they include some additional miso dipping sauce. My FAV on the menu!
Udon noodles in a soy based broth
wasabi lamb

After lunch, I relaxed for about 30 minutes before teaching Zumba. Loves!

Dinner was at Ran restaurant on Great Marborough Street in Soho.
