Miyako, Frutti Yogo

Miyako: I've walked past this restaurant many times, and have even been to the adjacent frozen yogurt place next door, but I never wanted to go in because it didn't look busy enough. After we got rudely treated at nearby The Counter, we hopped out looked toward 31st street but didn't see anything interesting (though apparently Mrs Winston's Green Grocery is over there), and stopped in here to be quite pleasantly surprised. For a very reasonable price we got a huge amount of eel on a bed of onions sizzling on a hotplate, plus a nicely cooked salmon teriyaki bento, and a shrimp tempura appetizer (half off during certain hours). The bento came with quite a bit of tasty veggie tempura (or I could've chosen shrimp), some edamame, very tasty sprouts (pickled?), rice (can get brown rice), a passable salad with a peanut flavored dressing, and an orange slice. The eel special also came with rice/salad/edamame/sprouts. Some of the eel was excellent, most weren't bad. So not the highest quality food, but pretty good nonetheless. Worth going back for.

Frutti Yogo: The second time we've gone. Again, great tasting frozen yogurt. This time we got the lychee and they were awesome. Kiwi, not so good. Strawberries ok.
