Food Photos! LA Pt 1: Katana

Katana, its a pretty well known Asian fusion restaurant. It used to be very trendy and sceney, but that has died down a bit and it is just good food with good people watching, overlooking Sunset Blvd and the across from the Mondrian Hotel.

I think i would have to say Asian is one of my favorite types of food. The food here was outstanding. My boyfriend made the reservation for my best friend and I and then surprised us at the end of the meal with already having paid for it. So sweet!!

Enjoy.
Yellowtail and Jalapeno carpaccio with a Yuzu sauce.

Crispy Tuna Rice. MY FAVORITE!


Shrimp Tempura in a Jalapeno Honey sauce. No mayo which makes it so amazing.
Seared Albacore tuna with crispy shallots on top with a Lime Yuzu around the edge. My other FAVORITE.

Cod and Halibut Skewers.
Kobe Beef Skewers, two different marinades. One was a roasted garlic and the other was a grilled pepper sauce.


Molten Chocolate Lave cake, perfect end to the meal.


Hope that did'nt make you TOO hungry! I made myself drool!
