But it was dinner time and the rain was falling like stair-rods. We each wanted different meals, but we both wanted Japanese that wouldn\u2019t demand a second mortgage or have us ordering a pizza after. Abokado fitted the bill.<\/p>\n<h4>This constituted a satisfying meal<\/h4>\n<p>I ordered the Deep Blue which was a generous platter of Salmon maki, California rolls, teriyaki salmon maki, tuna maki and superior salmon nigiri, with a separate bottle of soy sauce and a sachet of vibrant and sinus-burning wasabi for mixing to one\u2019s own taste. This constituted a satisfying meal along with a bottle of Ginger and Lemon Water.<\/p>\n<p>My companion, a man famed for having a pair of hollow legs, found his dinner bento equally satisfying, with no temptation to call the delivery moped. He had ordered the Chicken Katsu Salad of breaded chicken fillets along with spinach and courgetti salad, shichimi dusted nigiri, and a tub of sweet chilli and sesame dressing. This worked rather well with the meat.<\/p>\n<p>These small caf\u00e9s sometimes have seating, and they do healthy and tasty food that won\u2019t break the bank. I am now a regular. Looking at Coconut Chicken Ramen Soup for next time.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/abokado.com\">Visit Abokado here<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am constantly amazed at the prices charged for Japanese food in London.
