OUR 3rd ANNIVERSARY DINNER. I have many choices in my head planning for dinner, but i endup decided to go back to Morimoto restaurant, simply because i know i will enjoyed their food the fullest. Lets just be honest, we both are chef morimoto biggest fans! Watching him cooked on iron chef show is one of our favorite tv time. This is our second time dine in at Morimoto, and service there is good as usual, so do the foods!

Appetizer, we have their famous signature toro tartare with 5 different sauce. I ordered Duck, duck duck for entree. Chin ordered a simple ramen, and i was like, what!? And i gave him the dirty look that who will order ramen at morimoto!? When the noodle came, i was shocked, because it was just soup with little noodle and chicken Not to mention the portion is not big. I have a sip first just so thinking i can gave him more of my dirty look for ordering this. And damn it! I am wrong. The broth was so tasty and amazing! Hand downs, the best broth we had! Even the noodle was so smooth and different than everybody else. Well, because they hand make it. No wonder. We literally finished the soup from the bowl, and actually thinking of ordering another one. No kidding, this ramen is just so simply amazing. Anyways, since the ramen was so small, so i ordered extra tempura roll. My entree, duck wasn't bad. It just too big of a meat portion for me, and luckily Chin is sharing with me. 

Oh yea, the cheesecake souffle was tasty too!

Me& Astroboy always wanted to try Morimoto restaurant located at Chelsea Market,

Gotta love the shinning sparkling glasses hang on the wall!

My bad.
I ordered sparkling water accidentally.
It actually cost $8.00 dollar

My hair look so silly that day Ha :P

& my favorite unagi/fresh water eel.

Awww. So savory.
The eel itself is very fresh!

& our order came.
We both ordered bento box.

The restaurant menu have three different choices of bento box,
which are beef, fish & vegetarian.


He ordered fish.

So hungry!
but my cramps been killing me during that moment.
Totally ruining my mood :(

& my order - waygu beef bento box.

Green salad, miso soup, fried food with their specialty sauce,
3 pieces of raw sushi and 3 pieces of raw sashimi,
& waygu beef of cause :)

OMFG i must said the sauce is superrrrr delicious!
I want the recipe so badly ><" To be frankly, I never really likes raw fish or sashimi. Therefore, i will never order or try those when i go Jap restaurant. Surprisingly! The raw sushi&sashimi is very fresh, and it doesn't have the fishy/seafood smell or taste i hate! I finished them all with no complain :)

Very little pieces of beef.
But taste sooo sooooo soooooo good!

Happily waiting for my dessert to come.
The bento box is so tasty,
i'm pretty sure the dessert won't let me down ;)

& i was right!
This green tea dessert is heavenly tasting good!
with fresh berries.

Knowing i am a dessert lover,
Astroboy pursued me to order one more dessert that wasn't on restaurant week menu.
&i did :)

The waitress recommend apple turban,
but i order this.

It is called Tofu hot&cold, $12 dollars
Maple icecream with fresh berries, soy milk souffle,
and tofu cheesecake with espresso.


Too bad, my cramps is hurting me so much,
I only have couple bites then I can't take it nomore.

Will be back one day! when we're rich :) Ha
