First Dinner In Osaka: Maido (2009-03-30)
We made arrangement to meet up with Serlina and David at a subway station which they happened to come across without trouble during their window shopping. It's great to see them after a year and unlike us, they haven't gained a pound. >_<
Our dinner plan was to walk around and go to the one that caught our
eye which subsequently brought us to the brightly-lit Maido, an
izakaya-style
restaurant. About 90% of the patrons were salarymen having a
post-work drink and snacks. We on the other hand, went straight
for the food!
Staff were all courteous (it's very hard to find rude waiters in
Japan) and food was good, not mindblowingly great. After dinner,
we thought we would grab dessert in Dotonbori, the nightlife area in
Osaka.
Serlina and David are not picky eaters, in fact I think the priority
in their travel is shopping, not food. They'd often go to the
first restaurant they see and not bother looking around for more
options. So we hopped inside Coffee No Aoyama (
) as soon as we
entered the major shopping street in Dotonbori.
Well, food wasn't that great. David's waffles were dry and
there's not much choice in the chill case. My melon soda tasted
like bubble gum which wasn't too impressive either. Thankfully
there's good company.
