Traditional Japanese dinner
From time to time, we like to indulge ourselves to a nice little Japanese dinner. Today, with a couple of friends, we selected a Japanese restaurant in Kagurazaka, the traditional neighborhood near our place. We had a private little room with tatamis and on a low table, we had a Kyoto style traditional Japanese dinner.
We started with the starter, also called Zensai (kyo yuba, kamo, konyaku, ebi, ofu no nitsuke)
And while we were eating a delicious plate of sashimi,
the next dish, ofunabe, was slowly cooking on a little candle burner.
We continued with some tofu
Next came a plate of fish (buri no yakimono)
followed by a crab salad (kani) 
and Rice, Misoshiru and Tsukemono.
We finished with a fruit plate (kaki and grape).
An excellent dinner it was!
