There was a bowl of katsu sauce served alongside, which a server described as "like a Japanese A-1 sauce." Unfortunately, that was fairly accurate, it seemed closer to A1 than most katsu sauces I've had. Tonkatsu had a very light, greaseless coating on the tender pork. This was very tasty, and also provided some spice and acid to our array of dishes. Kimchee Don (pork with Kimchee) brought spicy Korean pickled cabbage studded with fried pork, some bean sprouts adding crunch. Saba Yaki Saba Shioyaki (salt-grilled mackerel) was pretty basic, nothing really wrong with it, but it was not really spiced or sauced, just broiled fish. How could they not be? We were very amused when at the end of the meal, as plates were being cleared, one of our servers noticed a lone remaining egg, and jokingly scolded us: "don't waste bacon!" I'm thinking of getting a tattoo that says that. Pork Gyoza were also pretty standard, but very nicely fried to a good crunch.īacon and Eggs, well, Quail Eggs Wrapped in Bacon were very tasty. We ordered an Avocado Salad which was pretty straightforward, but fresh and tasty, with a good ginger dressing. There was a little confusion right when we came in, and it took a few minutes for our server to come over and take our order, so as an apology for the delay, they were nice enough to send over Ika (Squid) Salad and Seaweed Salad, both of which were quite good.

YAKITORI BOY JAPANESE KARAOKE LICENSE
Their liquor license still bogged down somewhere, they're hoping for it any day now. The food was better overall (or maybe we just ordered more things they do well.) Service was very friendly, almost too enthusiastic, we had servers, bussers and runners practically falling over one another bringing dishes, clearing them, or checking up on us. There is so much mystery and history hidden in these temples that it is impossible to describe them in words.We had a chance to try Yakitori Boy again, and are happy to report that they appear to be getting in the groove.
YAKITORI BOY JAPANESE KARAOKE MOVIE
That’s when we remembered that a Tomb Raider movie had been shot there and it suddenly made sense.Īngkor Park is by far one of the biggest tourist attractions I have ever visited. It was interesting because the temple looked almost familiar when we walked inside. One of them, for example, hadn’t been rebuilt yet, so there was an even more mysterious vibe surrounding it. We found a little street vendor who sold some of the most delicious lychees we’ve ever tried! Then we visited the rest of the temples. The steps are extremely steep but the view from up there is totally worth it!Īfter visiting Angkor Wat, we took a little snack break.

The temple also has high towers which you can visit. What is interesting about the temple is that it has been used both as a Buddhist monument and as a Hindu spectacle at different times in history. Many of these stories are taken from the Bhagavad Gita. Our guide explained to us the stories and legends hidden behind the inscriptions on the temple walls. Fortunately there weren’t that many tourists so we were able to move around quite freely. Several photos were taken and then we started to visit the temple. Once the sun started to emerge from the horizon, we were able to see the temple’s majestic reflection on the water as a pink-yellow color filled the background. We were seated in front of a pond and the temple was located directly behind it.

At sunrise we witnessed one of the most beautiful views we have ever seen. Angkor Wat is by far the most important temple of these. Surprisingly, the site contains several different temples, all equally fascinating but built in different eras. We were told that visiting the temple at sunrise is the best way to experience Angkor Wat. Several governments assisted in its restoration so that the temple could look like it is today. Then, during the time of French colonization, some French explorers were able to discover the long-forgotten temple. For hundreds of years, people have even forgotten the existence of the temple! Uncertainty has turned to speculation and speculation to legend. The temple was built during the height of power of Khmer rule and has survived multiple disasters. It is the temple that many consider to be the crown jewel of not only Cambodia but most of the Eastern countries. Ten days in Southeast Asia are slowly coming to an end.
