Another birthday gift from our good friends Gary and Alexie.  They treated us to dinner for our birthdays.  I remember very well when Alexie gave me a spa treatment for a gift and we had it together.  It was nice since we get to spend time together.

My Mom told me about Toki since she mentioned a Japanese friend wanted to take her there.  As soon as I heard that, I immediately assumed that the place must be good.  So when Alexie asked me where to go, I suggested Toki. We like it very much.  After our dinner, we have been back 3 times, My Mom and Dad has been back 2 times. It is just across Aubergine.

They have a Japanese Chef who sort of reminds me of Luis “Lucky” Manzano 🙂 Young, very nice, soft spoken and obviously very talented

Pork is the “in” thing now!  The waitress recommended this and it was very very tender and very good.  Sparerib No Kakuni!!

They have a different menu for lunch and they only serve these.  I want to try the Wagyu Curry next time 🙂
