Prologue:

Himawari is a Japanese restaurant that specializes in ramen and quick :"comfort" food.

The interior is modern with an industrial touch. Jazz is played in the dining room and album covers of this genre of music serve as decoration on its walls.

Its Japanese fried chicken (karaage) is one of the best that I have tasted. Crispy outside and juicy inside. Just perfect.

    Hi Thomas,

    Not at all. It was a shared meal among 3-4 people. It would never occur to me to steal another member's reputation. ;)

    Thanks for your comment.
