Kappo Honda

I've been here at least once before, though the only record I can find at the moment is for 20100114. See Note: Log 20091215 to 20100131.

I wrote: "Oh my goodness, this chicken heart melted in my mouth or something. Soooo delicious. The pork cheek was good and fatty, but not nearly as delicious as the chicken heart. Huh, the asparagus and bacon tasted more like asparagus than bacon." 11:11PM PT

Quail eggs.

I wrote: "The quail eggs were okay. I like the quail eggs boiled in soup more than this grilled type of quail egg. Oh my goodness, the sausage of the sausage with pork is so juicy. Since it is one whole sausage, I thought it would be too hard to share, and so just proceeded to eat the entire thing." 11:17PM PT

Tomato and pork.

I wrote: "Oh wow. That chicken and shitake is delicious. The shitake is nice and chewy. Well the salt and pepper might be excessive. The tomato and pork was juicy, but it was also watery. It's not much different than the taste one might expect of a watery tomato. In any case, the tomato and pork was not as good as I was expecting. On a related note, the taste improved as the size of the tomato decreased." 11:34PM PT

Chicken heart (?)

I wrote: "The (chicken) kidney is tastier than the (chicken) liver. I thought the liver was too mushy to be tasty. I could be wrong. In any case, there was something that made the kidney tastier." 11:58PM PT

Chicken meatball.

I wrote: "The (chicken) meatball was juicy and sweet. It was delicious. I had one of the three meatballs, Josh had the other, and we let the others split the third. I find the meatball to be second best to the sausage." 20121227 12:09AM PT

Having sampled Stephanie's order of chicken heart, four of us (one of who was Steph) each ordered another serving of chicken heart.

Summary:
Gold: Chicken heart. | Silver: Sausage and pork. | Bronze: Chicken meatball. | Honorable Mentions: Chicken kidney, pork cheek, chicken and shitake.

Officially I ordered:
Quail eggs | Sausage with pork | Chicken meatball | Chicken heart
