We enjoyed a nice walk over to the restaurant which is located on 3rd, obviously, near Traction Avenue. The space is deceptively large and modern with a small patio to the rear for the smoking types. We each had a different form of animal (sorry to any vegetarian and/or vegan readers). As per usual, I opted for the fish. Eric had beef and Phil went for the chicken. In order for me to get the fish I had to order a special meal which included an appetizer sampler, which was shared between the 3 of us. Hands down our favorite apps were the sea scallops, followed by the tuna tempura and the pork wrap. Likewise, we all enjoyed our main dishes greatly with Phil eating every last bite of his Spicy Chicken. Eric and I had leftovers because our meals were so big and hearty. We will definitely be adding this place to our future dining options in the 'hood.
Then it came time for dessert....our favorite part. Instead of trying one of the numerous ice cream options at e3rd, E&P suggested a walk over to the Little Tokyo Plaza for a great new yogurt place they had recently found. IF was the place and it was an amazing way to round out the evening. I had the original sour yogurt with strawberries and chocolate chips. E&P had similar concoctions with different toppings.
On our walk back to their loft Phil proclaimed for like the 10th time how much he loved living in Downtown and we all agreed. Even though I'm an interloper, wishing I could truly call Downtown home, I feel his joy. Especially times like these when we are greeted with such fantastical forms of expression.
