Recently blog friend Rick (who no longer blogs) and his family were in Tokyo
One place they ate at was a food truck called Slice of Life in Harajuku, which does Texas BBQ
Since I wanted to try, I went after my physical therapy and was there about 45 minutes before they opened at 11:30
The owner was super quiet to the point of where I thought he was rude, no “hello”, or “irasshaimase” even after I said “konnichiwa”
His wife on the other hand at least said “irasshaimase”
When they finally opened, I ordered the A5 wagyu brisket…2700 yen (tax included)
This comes with rice, and sides
On this day, the sides were shredded cabbage and what seemed like chili
Since I planned to eat this for dinner, I asked for no rice and they took 100 yen off my bill.
The brisket was super tender! but I thought the portions of the meat and sides were really skimpy
I also took a little of their coffee sauce and bbq sauce to try but the meat didn’t need sauce and the sauces overall seemed to be bland
The foreign guy behind me ordered the plate with 3 different items (pulled pork, brisket and burnt ends, I think) he paid 7800 yen (tax included)!
I hope they gave him more food
Meh, not worth the hype
