It's been a exhausting week for me. In turn, I spent most of today in bed: woke up at 6AM and slept off and on till 5pm. (Sleep, that's where I'm a Viking.) Around 7pm I decided that I should eat something. Around 9pm is when I got around to getting myself out of bed. Around 10pm I finally ate.
Perfect first meal of the day at any hour? Kamei Royale (located at 1030 West Georgia Street) hardly ever does me wrong. Kamei Royale has a great menu, serves late night and has a Karaoke bar (which is always good for a laugh).
My first course was 3 Royal Miyagi Oysters $4.50-comes with three sauces: sweet vinegar, ponzu and horse radish that bring out the sweetness of the fresh Oysters three different ways.
I followed the Oysters with Calamari Tofu $5.50- deep fried Tofu topped with Calamari and covered in a sweet chili sauce and scallions. Light and Satisfying.
And finally Zaru Soba Noodles $8.95- cold buckwheat noodles garnished with shredded dry seaweed served in a house-made sauce.
Refreshing, light and flavorful.
FYI: Soba noodles are made from buckwheat flour, have a nutty taste and are super healthy. Also, Soba noodles are an excellent source of complex carbs, protein and antioxidants.
The way to eat Zaru Soba is --mix your scallions and wasabi into your sauce (to your taste). You then dunk and slurp your desired amount of noodles into the sauce and into your mouth (no judgement).
