Our second day was spent exploring the National Gallery and lots of walking around. We stopped in to Caffe Concerto for breakfast. That seems to be a chain of sorts. The inside was charming
Lots of pastries in a display case
Breakfast was not very good. I had a baked egg with tomato sauce and too much ricotta cheese
Husband went for the full English.
More sights seen
That night we went to Nobu for dinner. We opted for the classic omakase and asked the waiter to do a beverage tasting of his choosing. He paired our food with a mix of sake, red and white wines. Cocktails
First course, toro belly sashimi
Second course, more sashimi. Upper left going clockwise, we had yellowtail with jalapeño ponzu, a sea bream, a spicy tuna and a scallop.
third course, sushi. More bream, tuna, horse mackerel (my favorite) and I forget what the fourth one was! The cup has a chopped tuna sushi.

Next, miso black cod
Followed by hot pot. Husband had waygu steak and I don't eat red meat so they brought me toro
final savory course, rice with shiitake
Dessert sample ice cream
First real dessert, hazelnut ice cream and molten chocolate cake
Second dessert, more ice cream, a coconut frozen "grapefruit", and a hazelnut cake.

This was a ton of food and we were stuffed, so went for a long walk afterwards. We found a Christmas fair near our hotel and decided to explore. Of course I had to take photos of some of the food stalls even though I was too stuffed to try anything 🙂
