Ginya Izakaya

My long time favorite izakaya, Shoya, has squirted out a little baby Shoya intown like how the pouch pump pumps special deliveries after a 10 course meal. Ginya and the pouch produced a love child on this grub fueled night... It only took 45 minutes to delivery this beautiful baby pouch. Let's take a look at all the oral pleasures we did to each other on this first date...

Sashimi Regular. Hiroshi is the man, I usually get the sashimi deluxe but he set up this excellent spread and even threw in some uni... Shoulda asked him for some sweet shrimp... Next time.

Gizzards. A little chef's taste of offal goodness. That's some tasty ass tender gizzards.

Gindara. Miso cod... Oh, so good, tender and flaky. Could be a little bigger but I ain't complaining and the price is right.

Ankimo. A face only a mother could love and a monkfish liver only the pouch could love... To eat over and over again. Firm, smooth and silky, awesome.

Grilled Oysters. If these were the samples Lamar Odom had to choose from at the Love Ranch, I would totally pass... But these luscious bi-valves that Ginya prostitute here, I would totally ravage this threesome. And I did, juices, labia and all... It tasted like Hannah Davis, Nina Agdal and Chrissy Teigen at the beach.     

Amaebi Karaage. Love these popcorn shrimp but the portion could be bigger like it used to be at Shoya.

Soft Shell Crab. One of their best fried items. So friggin good.

Chicken Karaage. Ginya's version trumps Shoya's... There were plump, crispy, crunchy and tender.

Tonkotsu Ramen. They have Sun Noodles make their ramen as well like so many other top ramen joints across the nation. This is the Shoya special ramen noodle... A bit thicker and curly. They are also getting thin and straight noodles from them soon... Especially, for the tonkotsu. But the current noodle worked great in this bowl. The broth was creamy, flavorful but needed a bit more of that sticky goodness called collagen which they said they will be doing in the future, that you can request more of it in your broth... That is fucking awesome. The broth is pork feet, pork bone, chicken and some fish stock as well. This was a pretty damn good bowl of tonkotsu ramen. I would come back for this.

Taiyaki. They should present them ATM on the plate like in Human Centipede... But a 69 formation would suffice. You know, like a Pisces symbol. These were really good. Great cake batter, crust, color on the outside with creamy toothy filling of red bean paste inside. These are cute, definitely will get you laid if you get these at the end of the meal. Chicks dig cute round shit... Like my muffin top.

Ginya did done well with this first visit. The pouch approves. Everything was spot on and I ate all of this, I am truly a fat fuck. Why do Asian joints always nails the food when they open and never have to use the excuse that they're new and need to work the kinks out like so many gaijin joints that open around town even with a seasoned staff or resto group? I know why because Asians are not slackers... Except for a few but I won't mention their names except that one tries to do ramen on Marietta and the other dim sum in Decatur.

Squirt.
