Good afternoon.
I'm posting a new entry while watching the news today. As today there is another very anticipated Doll fandom related meetup in my town I figured it would make sense to post about this day.
The first thing i did was actually polish silverwear. It is the most boring thing to do ever, worse than ironing and doing the dishes. What's your least favorite house chore?
 |
| You can see how they looked before (I never used these before) and how pretty they look after being polished. |
One of these wednesdays (both me and my husband had the wednesday off last semester) we decided to go try out the newest japanese restaurant in our area:
Ichiban . A couple of Japanese friends of his told him that this was the best place to eat actual japanese food and that it was the closest to actual japanese food they had tried and it is in fact fabulous. It is just like the food we ate in Japan and I absolutely recommend it.
 |
| The decorative wall displaying different japanese goods. We sat on the second floor. |
 |
| Entrance dishes: "ovas de peixe" (don't know the word for them in english) and a meat roll with salad. |
 |
| Sashimi dish |
 |
| more sashimi and sushi |
 |
| The table. |
 |
| Miso soup |
 |
| Handmade icecream, delicious! |
 |
| and because i'm currently off cafeine, "carioca de limão". |
If you visit the restaurant during weekdays (excluding monday) and for lunch they offer their customers special menus. The daily dishes /offers are decided by the chef depending on what he sees fresh in the marketplaces. The daily dish menu is 13,50 euro and the sushi/sashimi is 15,50 euros.
I find it amazingly affordable and again, i recommend it.
After that we went for a stroll to breath some fresh air and i took that change to take some shots of one of my girls.

| One of her new dresses, it was given to them by a talented girl in the national doll community. |
 |
| Her new sunglasses. She looks so adorable <3 |
 |
| Heading back home. What a nice day it was. |
After that I also managed to go to some local stores and get the girls some new furniture. I'm going to paint it white but for the time being its still wood color.
 |
| Easel, two frames and a living room armoire. They seem to like them. |
And that was it.
I will have a nice report for today's gathering I hope. I'm about to get dressed and leave. I am looking forward to it. <3
Thanks for reading and commenting as usual,
Jo
Oh you and the dolls
ResponderEliminarhaha its either "oh you and the food" "oh you and fashion" or "oh you and the dolls". You already knew that :P
EliminarAll the food pics!! It looks so yummy, once again ♥
ResponderEliminarAnd nice pics of your dolls!
Thank you Ni. It is really great to finally have a more affordable real japanese restaurant over here.
EliminarI really am loving the doll communities and taking photos of them. I can see my blog readers don't appreciate them much but they are going to see this sort of thing a lot more often so they should haha
I'm glad you like them and still comment, i really appreciate it.
Oh I love the pictures with the dolls! I used to live close to that place with the little houses :)
ResponderEliminarI saw a very bad review of that restaurant on a magazine (Time Out Porto). Well I guess that if tsu says it's ok it must be good, he probably knows more about Japanese food than the guys from the magazine :P
Haha I love the doll´s photography. <3 And the food look soo great! <3
ResponderEliminarI want to have the pink glasses!!!!!!!!!
Thank you! Oh well i don't love the pink lenses but the doll looks cute with them. You're a pink lover then?
