Boston Restaurant Week | Purple Shell Japanese food recommendations
🍴 Boston Fine Dining: Where Japanese Fusion Meets Pricey Perfection 💰 Budget Alert:$70/person, but during Restaurant Week, the line starts forming at 7 PM. Pro tip: Book via phone or OpenTable—trust me, waiting sucks when you’re eyeing that A5 wagyu! 📜 The Dine Out Menu ($41/Guest) Appetizers That Slap Duck Bao:Think Peking duck vibes—crispy skin, cucumber, and scallions in a fluffy bun. Hunger cure? Yes 😆. Beef Tataki:3/10 rare beef slices with radish strips. Black truffle shavings on top? Chef’s kiss 👍🏻. 🌟 Main Courses: Worth the Splurge (or Not) A5 Beef Ishiyaki:$12 extra for six slices, seared 30 seconds max. Skip the sauce—just a pinch of sea salt and green onions lets the melt-in-your-mouth texture shine 🥩. Perfect Dose Maki:Novelty alert! Inject soy sauce or spicy mayo into the sushi like a science experiment 😂. Taste? Decent, but the A5 steals the show. 🦢 Extra Order: Toro Foie Gras ($15/PC) Tiny foie gras vs. toro ratio, but honestly, more would be too rich. Pro tip: Eat in one bite for max flavor 👌. 🍰 Dessert Downer: Crepe Cake Letdown Mango and matcha flavors were… basic. Felt like store-bought, which clashed with the fancy vibes. Save $$$ and skip! 🚗 Parking Hack: Foundry St is Your Friend Free on Sundays (maybe?), but weekdays hit up a garage. Pro tip: Use SpotHero to pre-book—no circling needed! #BostonRestaurants #JapaneseFusion #A5WagyuLover
