NYC Restaurant Week

NYC restaurant week is one of my summer highlights. Last Thursday for lunch, my parents and I went to the Japanese restaurant Nobu.

The food was absolutely spectacular. To start, I ordered a sashimi salad which came with two pieces of tuna sashimi on a bed of greens with a very tasty Asian dressing. Since I was in a restaurant that supposedly serves great sushi, it made sense to order sushi as my main course. My sushi platter came with 7 pieces of assorted sushi including salmon, tuna, squid, and shrimp as well as a tuna roll. Again, an amazing dish.

Dessert was a play on a piña colada. At first I was hesitant to try it because I honestly don’t like pineapples. But much to my surprise, I really enjoyed the dessert. With a mildly sweet pineapple flavor and some sort of crunchy bits to add texture, this dessert was quite delicious.

I had an amazing meal overall.
