Kitchen on Main St - Grand Opening Week

Kitchen on Main St is the newest bar/restaurant to open up on - you guess it - Main St. They were having some grand opening specials this week so J and I decided to pop by to check it out.

Meatball slider.

Classic beef ball skillet with fire roasted tomato sauce.

Garlic bread, because I'm a sucker for carbs and garlic.

Chicken ball skillet with roasted vegetables.

Serving American and Italian food, this is a very small place with a casual atmosphere. The fare was pretty typical - soups, salads, meatball skillets and pasta. There was a comedy act at 9:30 so Kitchen on Main St. might be a cool place to hang out in the evenings.

There are different grand opening specials every day of this week, so make sure to check it out!

Zakkushi on Main

J and I went for some late night snacking in her neighborhood at Zakkushi, a Japanese grilled izakaya restaurant. This cozy little placed seemed like a popular place for the late night crowd and it's hard to resist the BBQ smells wafting out of restaurant.

We didn't order too much since we were just looking for a quick snack, but the food was pretty good, if a little pricey. You order by the skewer, so don't get tricked by the pictures on the menu.

Okra, Oropon Maguro (albacore tuna with grated daikon and ponzu sauce, Uzura Maki (quail eggs wrapped with bacon).

The Zakkushi special, which consists of 5 skewers of various meats.

A lone kabocha melon.

I would probably go here again when I'm feeling peckish and try some of the other items on the menu. Who can resist grilled food?!
