"My partner and I had a delightful lunch experience at Tanuki today. As we entered, we were greeted by a charming Halloween setup complete with a trick or treat bowl a fun touch that set a cheerful tone for our meal. The server was swift and attentive, ensuring we felt right at home. Unlike the weekend dinner rush, the lunch crowd was pleasantly sparse, allowing us to enjoy our meal without feeling cramped. We kicked off our meal with a comforting miso soup that warmed us up on this crisp autumn day. The highlight for me was the exquisite Thai iced tea, which I savored down to the last sip. The flavors were perfectly balanced, making it a must try. We then indulged in the nigiri the salmon and unagi were incredibly fresh and burst with flavor. For our mains, I opted for the green curry, a creamy delight with a hint of spice from the green chiles. The combination of tender chicken, crunchy eggplant tempura, and vibrant vegetables made each bite a delight. My partner enjoyed the pad Thai, which was equally satisfying. To top it off, we couldn't resist stopping next door at the neighboring cafe for a loaf of tomato bread and some chocolate truffles a perfect ending to a wonderful meal at Tanuki. This place never disappoints! If you're in the mood for a fresh, flavorful meal, Tanuki is the place to be. Can't wait to return for another fantastic meal!"
