Carson Kitchen

A restaurant in Downtown LV that is in my top faves right now is Carson Kitchen.  Its a small restaurant that was designed to be similarly like rock 'n' roll chef, Kerry Simon's loft-style home in Las Vegas.  We've dined there twice during their busy dinner hours and have sat at same seats at the bar.  Despite being busy, one of the managers took some time to speak to us and explained what was in our entrees in a more detailed manner than what's described in the menu both times that we've been there.  Here are photos from our second visit:

Killer Shrimp smothered in rocoto pepper cream

Cheddar Crab Fondue with assorted bread - their pretzel bread was my absolute fave!

Cocoa-Espresso NY Strip Steak with red wine demi glace-
I ordered this medium rare and it was quite tender to my liking

My husband got the Secret Sunday Chicken topped with spicy pickle aioli and served
with spicy tater tots

It was hard to choose which dessert to get so we got our waitresses' favorite, Banoffee Pie - to get
the full effect of the dessert, I recommend eating the multiple layers all at once!
I love Carson Kitchen's take on American food, we will be back soon!  To see pics from my first visit, click here.

Japan Trip '16: Sushi Bar Yasuda

I had to save my best dining experience in Japan for last at  Sushi Bar Yasuda !  When my husband and I entered the small, intimate restaurant, we saw Chef Yasuda standing alone at the bar.  He had no facial expression (maybe he was getting into the zone?).  As everyone sat down, he was preparing our foods and began talking to us in a calm, friendly manner.   As the night progressed, we all were having interesting conversations with Chef Yasuda from his life back in New York (he was the former owner of Sushi Yasuda ), sushi making techniques (and secrets!), him getting to know a bit about his patrons, and so on. I had told him that we were from Las Vegas, NV and he made fun of how it was impossible to get great sushi to the desert.  Well, after eating my omakase meal, I would have to agree with him! Now onto the food, if you haven't recognized him yet, Chef Naomichi Yasuda is featured in CNN's Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown  episode ...

Stockholm Trip '17

Over a month ago, my husband and I embarked on our first trip to Europe!!! We were there for a couple weeks and spent our time exploring the capital cities of Norway, Denmark, and Sweden.  The two things I found most captivating was the art, especially the architecture, and the food!  Our trip started in Oslo, Norway and Copenhagen, Denmark (check out the links at the end of the post for more details) and ended our Euro trip in Stockholm, Sweden: AB Café Never in my whole life did I eat pastries and drink coffee every morning until I arrived in Europe! A lot of pastries I had were hearty which left me wanting to have at least one daily.  In the neighborhood near where we were staying at was  AB Café .  This is a small, cozy cafe where you can have a small bite to eat and drink before you start your day.  Pictured below is their Key Lime Sandwich, latte, and a bullar (sweet bun).  It was a nice fika ! AB Café Valborgsmässov...
