I decided I should eat a lot for lunch, just in case I couldn't eat after my appointment.
We had lunch at Civitas
It had been awhile since we had been here, the prices have gone up quite a bit but it is still good as ever.
My appointment went as scheduled, the dentist decided to give the cracked tooth a root canal and will eventually cap the tooth.
I need to go back another three times before the capping takes place.
Since the root canal only took 30 minutes, I was debating what to do about dinner.
Luckily Satoshi was meeting up with friends, so I only had to think about my own dinner.
I thought about Shake Shack, but since my mouth was still numb, and it was sleeting and fahreezing, I decided to head back home just in case the snow got krazy and stopped the trains.
On the way home, I remembered that Frou Frou was open, so I got off the train, and luckily didn't have to wait too long to purchase some items.
I purchased the pork and red beans simmered in demi glace and tomato...this was a fancy pork and beans! served over rice with cole slaw, cheese sauce and steak fries.
Loved this dish! meaty, the sauce was a little on the rich side but still very delicious!...800 yen (tax included).
I also purchased this chunky minestrone...500 yen (tax included) for my dinner on Sunday, since Satoshi had another gathering with friends.
I was pleasantly surprised when I put it into the pot to heat up and found 2 small stuffed cabbages in there.
This was a hearty and tasty soup.
I can see why everyone fill up their baskets when they purchase from this shop.
His dishes can easily be frozen to be eaten another day.
I'll definitely be back.
Everything looks so yummy!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to my world of root canals, LOL. Just remember, even if you think your mouth is not numb anymore, it still is!!!!
I love pork and beans, I like the one from Bob's Barbeque in Kalihi although it is more of a baked beans
and that minestrone looks almost like portugese bean soup. yummm!

Ugh, I just went through an extraction & have to get an implant. 💸 I’m glad something good happened because you went to the dentist. That’s some fancy, yummy looking minestrone. The cook obviously puts a lot of care and consideration into his dishes.
ReplyDeleteA root canal at 5:00? They!re gone and closed by then here!
ReplyDeleteMeals always look so delicious there and inexpensive, why even cook. Especially for only one or two people.

V, the baked beans sounds ono!hope your root canals are pau already!
ReplyDeleteAnon, ouch! hope you are on the mend, take care.
Bonny, here lots of doctors & dentists have late hours for many who work. Also, Saturdays are considered a weekday, so they are also open late.
Take care everyone.

That's amazing hours for a dentist. And nice to see you are getting "Frou Frou" again! ;o)
ReplyDeleteI've actually seen other dentists open later than mine, Kirk!
ReplyDeleteTake care.
