Miso Izakaya

What do we get for ten dollars? Every ting you want. Everything? Every ting!

Sittin' at home with my pouch on empty, I got the phone book for a place to eat.
Picked up the telephone and dialed the seven digits.
Yo, this is Fraudie Buddha, are you down with the full menu?
I arrived at their house, opened the door.
Not having no idea of what the kitchen had in store.
I'm like a dog with a treat, IBS without warning.
I have an appetite for Izakayas 'cause Miso ornery.

Oh, Miso ornery... Ohh, Miso ornery... Ohh, Miso ornery...

Me no love you long time.... And here's why:

Butter Clams - 8 tiny boiled frozen clams tossed with onions and watered down butter sweat. Edible but @ $1.12 a piece? ...Eh.

Potato Krokke - "Croquettes" with ground beef... None were found in these instant mashed tater tots. Server sez "It's in there..." as if she was in a 1984 Prego commercial. Here's $5 for the comic relief.

Chirashi - Inverted bowl of sooshee wice on a plate topped with 6 slices of spongy chum. All I could think was... "Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?" "Sponge FOB Sashimi". $8 plate of fish bait.

Tonkatsu Ramen - Chewy pork belly instead of a fwied pork cutlet with Top Ramen fresh from the bag. It claims a "30 hour broth"... Tasted more like a 30 second broth (mix soup paste with hot water, stir and enjoy!). $10??? I had more defined flavors from a Cup O'Noodles for 50 cents.

2.5 Star.

Meh.
