“Save yourself the cost of an airline ticket to Tokyo and
head for Tojo’s, a bright and popular restaurant that is named for its revered
chef-owner, an amiable innovator responsible for some of the best sushi
Canadian dollars can buy.”
Y’all know, seafood is not my thing, and I’d long planned to
hit Tojo’s for their cocktail hour rather than an actual meal. But COVID has
indefinitely suspended their cocktail hour – the alternative? Tojo’s to-go.
After the Musem of Anthropology I headed over to Tojo’s to
pick up my order.
Chicken Karaage: crispy and juicy organic chicken, citrus
soy marinade; vegetable roll: fresh seasonal vegetables rolled inside out;
Seasonal vegetable tempura and Tojo’s Choice (Kitakata) sake: specially brewed
Daiginjo Sake for Tojo’s, clear, crisp flavor and floral bouquet notes,
off-dry, perfect balance of sweetness and acidity.
