Eating Out: Izakaya Midori

My friend and I have taken advantage of some of our mutual week days off by visiting Izakaya Midori, a gorgeous vegan Japanese restaurant down at the Gold Coast. The seating there is all undercover, but open air, so it is a good choice for these times where I don't really want to be inside with a bunch of people. You can see my previous posts about Izakaya Midori here.

We always share some agedashi tofu, because it is just the very best. The tofu and the broth is A+++!



I got the Tofu and Kara Yuzu Salad, which was a huge bowl of vegetables topped with fried tofu and karaage, all drizzled in a yuzu dressing. This was incredible, and so filling.



My friend tried the Karaage Don, which is a rice bowl topped with vegetables, karaage, and creamy dressing.



I didn't realise how big my salad was going to be, so I had also ordered the Do It Yourself Potato Salad (minus the shallots). Very grateful I had a friend to share this with! This is so fun, you get your bowl and then you mash it all together yourself.



Even though we were both very full, we still found a little bit of extra room for dessert. We tried their Matcha Cheesecake, which was wonderful and had a great matcha flavour.
