Daichan

Daichan is a little hole in the wall Japanese restaurant in Studio City - We love the ambiance of this place because they make you feel like you're actually in Japan...The closest we could get to a Poke Bowl (Hawaiian Sashimi bowl with steam rice) in the valley so we decided to get our poke fix...

We both got the Salmon Poke Bowl which is salmon sashimi over steam white rice topped with seaweed and lettuce with a side of ginger...It so good I ate the whole bowl!

We appatized on squid sauteed in garlic sauce - it was almost too flavorful that it taste better when you top it on steam rice! Very delish!  

This is eggplant glazed in a miso yaki type of sauce...kinda on the swwet side so we ate it with rice to offset the sweetness...This was heat in disguise, it really burnt my tongue!
