its too bad there is no more japanese breakfast at MO DC, would have been curious to hear your opinion. the one thing they kept on menu is pork belly, although it might have changed. i definitely enjoyed that, but then my standards are really low for this forum.
hope you get over the bug quickly!
Thanks, Kage.... i think I am now getting over the bug.
For me, the key comparison is when I eat the food, is the first reaction that sigh or intense "hmmmm" of the food being incredibly tasty. It is a reaction of intense joy no matter what the food morsel is, be it a piece of sushi, a mouthful of pillow-light pasta, or a biteful of well age and cooked to perfection beef. I had this same reaction eating almost every bite of food at the RC Café and Room Service as I did at restaurants like Gary Danko in San Francicso, Bouchon in Las Vegas, the old La Cote Basque in New York City, Spice Market in Bangkok, and top sushi bars in Tokyo. This was a very pleasant surprise -- I knew the food at any FS property will be good; I wasn't expecting this good.
