On Linnea's birthday evening, we wanted to go out for a celebratory dinner. The kids scrubbed up well!
Linnea had some trouble deciding where to go, or even what kind of food she felt like; so in the end we went with a trusty old favourite of all of us - sushi. Buuut we didn't just go to any old sushi place, we went to a Michelin-star restaurant - the 99 Sushi Bar in the city.
Our pretty pretty birthday girl!
While Linnea and the others just wanted to order up their favourites (but in Michelin-style!); Lucas and I were a bit adventurous and decided to go for the Aki Tasting Menu. We got to enjoy all sorts of amazing food, first up Hosomaki (Chu-Toro with leek) and Kobe Edamame, with truffle and Shichimi Togarashi.
Tuna Tataki with a passion fruit and soy reduction:
Oysters tempura, with Kaluga caviar - these were ah-mazing!
Birthday girl was enjoying the mocktails!
Will was there too! Another piece of "family" here in the sandpit, great to have him with us.
Next up Lucas and I got Wagyu Tartar over Bone Marrow. I think this was Lucas' favourite.
I missed to photograph the Capumiso soup and the Sea Urchin Tempura, but next up was Toro Gunkan, Foie & Maguro Zuke and Smoked Spanish Eel:
After that it was time for Robata Chicken:
In total we had 12 small courses, which all were absolutely fantastic, what an experience!
Time for dessert, a bit of chocolate fondant - and our birthday girl got a special version!
Happy happy happy 18th dear Linnea! ❤️
