Went to Ajisen for dinner for the sole purpose of getting their cucumber salad. It's just one of my many addictions right now. It's a gigantic bowl of shredded cucumber and crab meat, mixed in with some sort of mayo sauce and fish roe. It's ridiculously simple, but ungh, so damn good. I would seriously go to Ajisen just to eat this and make a meal out of it... but I'm just not one of those girls that goes to restaurants only to eat salad, even if it does have a million calories worth of mayo in it, you know?
For some reason, I didn't feel like actually eating ramen (gasp!), and ordered the pork katsu curry with rice instead. It was good — the meat was tender and the exterior was perfectly golden and crispy — but the sauce is sweeter than I typically like in a Japanese curry. It satisfied my craving for pork katsu, but I will likely stick to the ramen next time. Honestly, I don't know why I stray.

That salad looks awesome. I'm now tempted to make it since I have that fake crab meat stuff at home. Hmm....
ReplyDeleteYESSSS, you should DEFINITELY make this salad. If I had fake crab meat at home, I'd be ALL OVER THIS. Nomnomnom!
