Dish of the day: Futo Maki
Where it’s found: Nguyen Thi Minh Khai, D1, near the corner where Tous
Les Jours is. Sushi can be found
throughout Ho Chi Minh City – Japanese food is definitely not lacking.
Breaking it down: Seaweed (nori) and sushi rice rolled with various
ingredients inside, often vegetarian.
I.e. daikon radish, carrot, cucumber, imitation crab, mushroom and egg. As with all sushi, it is served with wasabi,
soy sauce and ginger.
It was a pool day – our third time going to the swimming
pool and tourist village/park at Go Cap Van! Complete with a tasty Banh Mi
(baguette sandwich) and sliced guava fruit for a poolside picnic, it ended up
being a nice relaxing afternoon! Too bad I had to leave early to get to work for
4pm!
Fresh Japanese futo maki, with the standard wasabi,
soy sauce and ginger on the side made for a tasty, quick nice dinner tonight
before my evening private class. Futo Maki is larger than typical maki, often
requiring you to eat it in more than just 1 bite! Mine had cucumber, crab, mushroom,
carrot, egg and daikon radish inside.
