Since my identity as a Spaniard is in question, I am going to share what has become a small obsession.
Earlier this year, as MrLapLap walked around KitaKyushu and sent me the occasional photo, I looked up on tabelog an Izakaya near where he was staying.
It was run by an elderly couple and had a speciality that I had never seen before. I gave my husband a mission. Took him a couple of attempts as the opening hours were erratic, but he made it there and had this - behold!
The food of paradise; battered aubergine (eggplant/nasu) sandwiching a gyoza core.
😍😍😍
It pushes every single culinary button for me.
