No! Heard it’s good.

 

I prefer very small sushi places. Places where, after you’re done, you can order a couple of more pieces and they can get them to you quickly ; )

If you go in and there are Japanese people eating at the bar in front of the chefs, you know it’s good. If not....

Absolutely.  We’re lucky. Our small town happens to have a Thai/Japanese restaurant.  Women who owns and cooks is Thai and her husband is Japanese he runs the bar and front.  So the menu has both, separate sections as if it’s two restaurants.  Well their daughters went and studied culinary arts And then went to Japan for 2 years to study there.   Came back and they added a sushi bar.  Omg.  ( yea I said omg ).   I eat spicy tuna rolls until I pop.  It’s incredible.  It hooked my wife , who had tried sushi before and hated it.  This she says “ isn’t the same thing “. She’s correct. 
 

it’s very odd.  One horse southern US town thats 5 hours from the ocean .... last place you’d want to order fish.  But.  I see the ups truck backup every morning to their door .  Dropping off the days fresh flown in fish and crab.  And their place stays packed.  And the take out orders non stop.

This is a golf not culinary event so I don't see a problem with guys choosing whatever their favorite food is, whether it be cheeseburgers of bean burritos.

Bet everyone loved when Spieth won and had some Texas bbq, i know i love me some brisket.

Pecan Lodge in Dallas.  Best BBQ I've ever had in my entire life.  That's when I discovered the meat sweats were a real thing!

[imakaveli]

Bagnacauda, Tartufo Bianco d'Alba, vitello tonnato and Barolo would have been a great Autumn menu, pitty! 😉

Me too.  I'm a simple guy.  And if I suddenly came into money I don't think I'd start eating super fancy food.

 Yes no need for fancy food, $100 a pound Sushimi will do. 😀

 

As a fan of fine of Japanese food, it defiantly gets into the realm of super fancy at the right places. 

[hwturner17]

Just wait until you see what Bryson will put on the menu next year after he wins in November and in April.

 

4 Orgain Double Chocolate Chunk protein shakes, a couple GoMacro bars, a pound of bacon and an overcooked steak. 

[canonlbp430]

Mickelson said on the Shane Bacon podcast last week that all the old guys pretty much just order steaks every year so that took a little shine off the Master's dinner for me. I had always thought that everyone ate the menu provided by champion which seems more fun. Also, probably the reason you see an odd mix of items on Champions menu some years.

[MUNIGRIT]

No need to overthink it. Surf and turf with good side dishes and desserts.

Haha...I learned that once myself.  Quite alarming when it happens.  I did not feel great.

Well, it’s Ferguson... ‘nuff said.

 

He (and most everyone who posted) missed the entire point.  Tiger couldn’t be bothered to do anything different from what he chose 12 years ago. Hence the mailing it in reference. I mean, give it a little effort there, Eldrick. It isn’t like it was back then and hopefully neither are you. Perhaps some Redemption Ribs with a side of Contrition Cornbread, and maybe some humble pie for dessert. 

 

 

Now Greg is vicariously expressing Tiger's point of view.

Nice, blade. I believe that pretty much all raw fish, besides tuna, needs to have been deeply frozen first before served for safety reasons.

 

But nothing like good sushi. I don’t really eat it as much as I used to. But, back in the day, got it all the time.
 

The best place was called Iso. It was so popular that by 8pm, there would be a big line outside waiting to get in. So, we called it,

 

Iso, (stands for) I Stand Outside! 
 

One time, I bet a friend if he ate a big ball of wasabi, I would buy his dinner. And he ate it😂

Yep. Probably right. The sashimi I’ve ordered fresh for home  is flash frozen too.
 

Was just referencing a long time saying for us non coastal southerners .  Question is asked  what are you ordering  - answer is “ don’t know yet. But not fish. We’re too far from the ocean for that “.     Reason is most fish you order , even in a nice place , historically is mystery meat  from who knows where.   It’s not like the northeast which has soooo many fishermen and markets etc.  here it’s a dead zone for sea food. But. You can drive 4 hours to the Coast  and buy shrimp practically from the boat as there’s roadside stands all over.  Crazy.  But it’s true.

Scared is exactly how I felt.  Especially since it hit right while I was driving home from the dinner.  I blame my wife.  Two things she hid from me while we were dating: her closet vegetarianism, and her general dislike for watching sports on TV. 

 

We were out for an anniversary dinner and she had about 3 bites of a very nice strip steak.  I wasn't about to let that puppy end its existence being re-heated in a microwave the next day.

Reminds me of this Chinese place we also had.  Sadly the lady has retired and whne new owners took over it’s went to hell. 
 

 

Was called  Peking kitchen.  And was literally one lady who cooked and ran it.  She had a couple grandsons who worked t deliver and wait tables.   This lady made the biggest and best homemade egg rolls I’ve ever had.  And she made spicy mustard in house.  So hot that at one point she removed it from the table because of lawsuit.  Lol.  YOu had to ask for “ special mustard “ and be approved by her to get it. The trick was real wasabi. Not the fake horseradish stuff.  It would take your breathe for a quick moment. Then had the best flavor I’ve ever had after.  I’d order just a bag of egg rolls and mustard for a ball game etc. the egg rolls were the size of a small hotdog bun.  And always so hot they’d burn you.  
 

true story. I have a big dude friend from high school.  Like 275 lbs big.  We went in to eat one time and ordered sat down and she brought out our food.  He ordered his usual sweet and sour chicken.  And gobbled it up.  As he waited for me to eat, the lady came back with a second plate.  Sits it down in front of him and says “ you need to eat , keep up your strength “.  Lol. To this Day we still give him that speech at meal time. ( he’s smaller now ).     She was so sweet that way.  We left a 20 on the table where we left since she refused to let him pay for the seconds.

I love Barolo, but would it pair well with those dishes? Tartufo Bianca is white truffle, isn't it? I'm not sure I'd want to drink anything while I'm eating that. And for the veal dish, I'd go with a white or rose.

I'd save the Barolo for later when everyone else has had enough and I can keep it to myself.🍷

That's two things that shouldn't be hidden in the courting stages.

 

That said, my wife didn't know I liked golf until after we married. I suppose that's sort of equivalent to finding out your other half is a vegetarian.

I've not heard that. From what I've heard, fresh as fresh can be is considered safe. For example, squid straight from the sea or holding tank is going to be much better than frozen then defrosted squid, and I've not heard of any safety problems with that.

 

Now, freshwater fish is a different matter. Japanese people don't eat many freshwater fish raw (freshwater fish sashimi is usually cured with vinegar), though there are exceptions. I've had Koi carp--not the Nishiki-koi--raw over ice, but I wouldn't eat it again.

I lived in the mountains of Japan for while, and when driving back from the city late at night would often see little special fish  trucks taking product to inland towns and villages. They had a special tank on the back with water (presumably salt water) and lots of ice which were cold enough to sort of comatose the fish. That way, the fish stayed alive and fresher.

I think those little trucks were called Katsugyosha, or "live fish cars".

Oh I know.  I have a 12 year old who thinks I’m too old to live.  

[llewol007]

I really think if its your first time winning, you make an impression and have a menu that represents you. Tiger has won enough to probably just get a different selection and keep it simple to think about.

With word today that the Masters Champions dinner is still on, one has to wonder how much thought Tiger put into his menu choices. I believe the menu of fajitas, sushi and sashimi, with milkshakes for dessert, is the same as he used last time he was hosting. That really doesn't sound like something befitting such a fine event. It's almost as bad as the 1998 dinner when he ordered cheeseburgers. Odd.

If his past menus are any indication it will be Fajitas. His menus have been about as plain and boring as if it was designed for 9 year olds..
