Good lunch set from Lugdunum Bouchon Lyonnais @ Tokyo, Japan

Lugdunum Bouchon Lyonnais is a good French restaurant with one Michelin star serving Lyon style French cuisine. Nice atmosphere and a lovely place to spend a few hours to dine here. The lunch is reasonably priced and quite good. I choose their Le Menu du Déjeuner which comes with an appetizer, main dish and dessert plus coffee.

Taste:9/10(Delicious. All the 3 dishes that I ordered are quite good. Special mention to Quenelles of Lyon served with Nantua sauce which taste like lobster sauce and very good. The meal is quite filling as well. Salad with bacon were tasty and for dessert, the praline tart does standout. I can taste the hazelnut paste. As for the snow egg, there is chopped hazelnuts on top of the meringue. The meringue floats on top of cream and its so light and dissolved the moment I put it into my mouth).
Price:4/10(Near expensive. The 3 course set lunch meal at 2950 Yen).

Kosher meal on ANA airline flight from Kuala Lumpur to New York

Fancy of having Kosher special meal on board looks like a wrong decision for me. During the 23 hours flight from KL to New York on ANA, I had to endure food that does not looks appetizing. I looked like a paranoid as all my meals and utensil are tightly wrapped and sealed to avoid contamination. I even have to inspect all my meals and open the seal before the flight attendent able to heat up my meals. Lol... So much hassle. Now I know that Kosher meal practice is even tighter than Halal meal. I quickly switch my meal back to normal meal for the return journey😁. Moral is don't choose Kosher meal if you don't have dietary restrictions.

Zuni Cafe @ San Francisco, USA

Zuni Cafe is famous for their roasted chicken. I was wondering how good can a chicken be. Of course my thought was changed when I tasted a really good chicken dish in New York a year ago. However, I have to miss ordering the chicken dish here as they only sell the whole chicken which is best consumed by two persons. Since I travel solo, I have to settle with smaller dish. I ordered the pork crepinette and found out the dish to be great.

Taste:10/10(Excellent. I ordered their Llano seco ranch pork crepinette with red wine braised lentils, delicata squash and fried herb gremolata. Such a long dish name. The taste is very good with succulent texture. Perfectly seasoned and perfectly cooked. Its my first time to try on those delicious sides that come with the pork crepinette. The Caesar Salad is served with whole romaine leaves. The dressing for the salad were well done as each parts were properly dressed. The portion of salad is huge and I basically half full when finish the salad. Plus the homemade croutons are delicious as well).
Price:3/10(Expensive. Caesar salad at USD12.00 and pork crepinette at USD20.00).
