Il Chianti is a cute little place near Yoyogi-Koen station that tries very hard to be Italian but hilariously serves up Japanese curry. It's also known for a very garlicky spaghetti soup. I struck lucky with this daily lunch: a tender pork steak with onion sauce, a generous amount of baguette with garlic butter, and a side salad with fantastic dressing that they apparently sell for 600 yen a bottle. Yum yum yum!

Dekkai Gyoza Sosan no Mise serve GYOZA that are DEKKAI (big!) Very juicy filling with satisfyingly chewy skin, there's a reason this store just a stone's throw from Yoyogi Station is known for its dumplings...

One can never be too pink 🤩

Such a well-balanced cafe latte - thank you Little Nap! (Was very awake after this... no napping for me!)

After two days of living off conveni onigiri and colleagues' giri choco (obligation chocolate given as a sense of duty at work), I wanted a decent, healthy meal. This is a Japanese sansho pepper keema curry, part of a collaboration with Good Luck Curry to celebrate Hotel koe's first anniversary. I was impressed to see whole sticks of sansho in the curry, which gave it an aromatic flavour but didn't up the spiciness. Overall, the dish is mild - both taste and spice levels - but the beef used seems to be of exceptional quality. The salad screamed of health but was actually a bit unexciting, although the liberal use of cumin seeds was appreciated. The lunch isn't cheap - 1350 yen plus tax for a modest portion and a coffee - but today putting good things in my body was a priority. There's a mackerel mozzarella curry that I'm keen to try, but there's also a set where you can try both! #PheebzEatz Friday lunch food report over and out!

When you're so hungry you make bad decisions. Admittedly, the Shack Stack burger is pretty good in a gloriously junkie way that leads to fairly rapid regret🤦🏽‍♀️I mean, the fried cheese stuffed Portobello mushroom on top is flirtatious, which is just as well, because at ¥1260, the price is a bit of a joke! I stupidly went for the chicken burger which was greasy and bland. I looked so forlorn that my poor dining partner sacrificed his burger and ate mine instead. I'm a little bit shameless 💁🏽‍♀️
