Win49: excellent steamed dumplings, rolled cabbage, other stuff ok, tasted only 6 dishes.....love the side with each item of cabbage, radish, etc (health with the fry!!)....
In 2004 I will get even more anal and only give scores to meals over 90 out of 100 points, otherwise just babble on....
I hope to get to my top 3 from 2003 this January, plus Casa Mono (fav from December), than its off to new spots plus a few I want to re-try.
The list is long but its Sugiyama, Trotter/Kunz/Keller, Sumile, Megu, Ariyoshi, Biltmore Room, Spice Market, Asiate (take #2), Ping's, Kurima Zushi, Geisha,
Boi, Soba Nippon, etc
Times today talks about the Japanese revolution, yahoo!!
Wylie showed me Japanese "food porno mags" back in 2001 that woke me up,
I sadly missed great meals in Japan cause me broke and booze was more important in the 80's.
Kai did and I assume will continue rocking my world and charts, I am so excited about this year of eating, so much is happening in NY.
Not exciting is the Aquavit chef new spot, to me Aquavit is overrated and look at the Times, "...foie gras nori and short ribs and applesauce, and sushi..." this is cutting edge?? NOT!! And another no thanks looks like Matsuri, the La Caravelle chef leaves cause as the Times sez "...do I really have to work so hard?"
Well Mr Lazy, I am too tired to make it to your new spot!!
But so much to try!!
