Tartare of Hamachi in Taro Root Taco, Chef's Choice assorted Sashimi, Octopus Salad, Duck Fat Fried Chicken, Foie Gras, Shishito Peppers with bonito flakes
(not pictured: Crispy Curry Croquettes, Tonkotsu Ramen, Baird Brewing Rising Sun Pale Ale)
i was so happy that there was finally a place that served freakin SHISHITO PEPPERS and legit Tonkotsu Ramen in Chicago, along with standard yakitori items. I've heard about Slurping Turtle for awhile and it just made it more awesome that M knew the co-owner of Slurping Turtle and he stuffed our faces till we couldn't move and gave us sake while we waited for a seat and Baird Brewing Rising Sun Pale Ale with our meal. If he wasn't taking care of us, i'm pretty sure i wouldn't have enjoyed it as much because service for other people were really slow (small place but they pack it in with so many seats). Did i mention he also comped 70% of our meal? It was greaaaaaaaaaaaat
best part: the 2 suburban moms having a girls night out in the city mustered up the courage and worldly-ness and asked their waiter if they serve dimsum during lunch...
