Dinner at Tofuya Ukai, a kaiseki, or traditional Japanese style multi-course meal with freshly made tofu as the star attraction.

Although my 15-year old vegetarian-phobic self would be shocked to hear it, we were a bit disappointed at the limited number of courses which featured the soy-bean goodness.

Still, a meal that has salted roasted chestnuts, walnut cream sauce, chrysanthemum petals, chicken, fish, beef AND tofu ain’t bad at all, especially when it takes place in a beautiful converted former sake brewery with gorgeous gardens right in the heart of Tokyo.
