Go Read Robyn's Post + Katsuhama

1. First, head on over to Robyn's blog for her post on a super awesome day we had in Brighton Beach waaayy back in May. I never got around to posting the Brighton Beach shoot with the very talented Diana (see photos here, here, and here) and the following meal at Cafe Kashkar. The night ended with cupcakes and gelato...L'arte del Gelato, of course ;)...huzzah! ^_^

2. Second, photos from a workday lunch at Katsuhama with Phyllis.

Phyllis had the Katsu Curry...

...while I went with the lunch special. They start you off with some pickles and a bowl of toasted sesame seeds. You grind up the seeds (bringing about this very lovely scent!), pour the katsu sauce over, and mix...

...and then you get a bowl of rice and miso soup...

...and then the katsu! With piles of thin shredded cabbage. I LOVE THIS CABBAGE, paired with their house dressing, light miso-esque. You can get seconds, and thirds of the cabbage. I bet you can even get fourths of the cabbage (but I haven't gone that far). Oh, and the katsu is pretty memorable too ;)

Not bad for $11, eh?
