Japanese Delivery!!

So many options!

Getting all of the things!

On Friday night I didn't feel like cooking so we thought we would order some food to be delivered. That is the awesome thing about London, you can basically get anything delivered! I felt like sushi so I just looked up Japanese places on a couple of apps (Hungry House and Don't Cook I think) and found one which had good reviews and seemed to have the food I wanted, then I just picked some stuff and ordered it for when I would be at home (since I was ordering while still at work).

There was one bad thing about this experience, and that is the delivery ordering over an hour before I ordered it to be delivered! For some reason they must have just ignored the time I picked and delivered it right away! Anyway luckily Quentin was already home but otherwise it could have been a problem.

I ordered quite a lot of food because I was hungry at the time... I got edamame, vegetable gyoza, a vegetarian sushi set, pumpkin katsu curry and vegetarian ramen. This may have been a bit much!

The edamame were good, just regular edamame. I find it weird eating them cold now when I am so used to having them hot in New Zealand, but it's ok. And when I make them myself I make them hot. The gyoza were really good, I could have eaten double the amount easily. The sauce they came with was tasty as well. I couldn't tell exactly what it was but it looked like soy sauce but had a sweeter taste.

The sushi was all really nice. I got the maki rolls with tempura sweet potato and avocado which were delicious, lots of black sesame which I love. The other ones were with inari and egg. I don't like egg sushi because I think they always make the egg weird and sweet which was the case here as well, I don't think I would get those ones again. The inari was delicious as always though. It came with soy sauce and ginger as well, although no wasabi. Not that I mind because I don't eat it but other people might be disappointed.
 
The katsu curry was maybe my favourite thing. It had some fried patties of pumpkin which had been coated in panko, and then a Japanese curry sauce over that which had what seemed like sweet potato and more pumpkin in chunks. It was super delicious and a bit spicy but in a good way, it was also super filling. I love the crispiness of the fried pumpkin patty with the smoothness of the sauce. I even ate some rice because the sauce was so good and I don't usually like rice (when it isn't in sushi).

The only thing which wasn't great was the vegetarian ramen. It was quite bland and filled with overcooked noodles. Also the only vegetables were mushrooms which I am not such a fan of, and seaweed which is not my favourite. It did have a good amount of tofu and it was still nice, just not as good as everything else.

Quentin and I have already said that we will get it again with all the same things, except to get more sushi and no ramen. Overall it was a really good dinner for a reasonable price (I think it was £20 altogether) and I was happy afterwards. I will give them a 3.5 because the ramen wasn't great and they delivered it an hour early. They will get a higher score next time if they deliver at the right time!
