Fantastic! I love Ikedas and always stop there (despite having an amazing suggestion from my beloved braslvr and Ikedas is just so lovely. I tend to get the steak sandwich and Ive never had a burger there. Last time I had a poke bowl. I just love Ikedas so much.

Absolutely delicious mortadella pizza with roasted pistachios and smoked stracciatella from Bianca in Emsphere Bangkok - a whole whopping $24!!!! It was really good, though.

Do you recall what that suggestion was? I'll be passing through again later this week during the evening. The only other place I've been is Katrina's, which is breakfast and lunch only.

It was indeed Katrina's. I can't recommend it highly enough for breakfast. I've eaten there well over 100 times since the 80s.
For dinner, I recommend Auburn Alehouse.

Two charcoal grilled tuna steaks, one with olive oil and lemon pepper (cooked medium) and one with plum sauce (just seared); charcoal grilled asparagus; garlic bread made from homemade yeast rolls.

glad our beloved suggested auburn ale house. Ngl we ONLY go to Ikedas because auburn is only a break spot even when we visit our friends in Nevada city. we love Ikedas too much and even though my wife acknowledges the genius of braslvr we will still only go to Ikedas.

That looks great, have yet to try mortadella on a pizza

If a mortadella fan, try this sandwich: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/36085954-post5278.html

Went looking for the Peppina branch in Central World - interestingly, I got lost and ended up in a service elevator to the 7th floor where I finally found the restaurant in the middle of a furniture store - the carbonara pizza here was larger than the one at Peppina Central Embassy, but the egg portion was some sort of cold egg jelly as opposed to the warm egg yolk used at Central Embassy

Ugh, I'm on a clear liquid diet today and tomorrow since I'm having a colonoscopy. This thread is like either porn or torture with all the pics, I can't decide which.
