Day 54 - Indulgence


I only remembered to take the photo after I had already eaten one of the eggs. It looked much nicer before I started attacking it.

I really wanted Brunch food and I knew exactly where I wanted to have it. Kimono in Nogizaka near Roppongi Mid-town, is a lovely little wine bar/bistro that also does an awesome Sunday brunch. Lauren, the owner, is a wonderful host and it is a really friendly atmosphere. If you are Tokyo based, I highly recommend this place for either a casual dinner with amazing wine or Sunday brunch. They can make food that is PCP friendly as well.  

Anyway, I had the eggs Florentine with a side of their home cured bacon. I know it is weird that I wanted eggs for my indulgence but there is just something happens to eggs when the hollandaise goes on. I had this with a big bucket o' latte and ice water. I did nibble on Max's pancake while I was feeding him so that satisfied my sweet tooth too.  

In preparation for it, I skipped my breakfast egg and my morning snack egg white. I just had a light breakfast of a wholemeal muffin topped with avocado. So really I have only had an extra egg yolk so far plus the bacon and hollandaise.  Did a brisk walk there and home so added some exercise to the day. 

Home now and so far no ill effects. About to get into my workout before heading over to a friends for dinner. I will BYO my egg white and apple.

So, back to normal PCP programming.

  1. Nice. Hollandaise sauce doesn't excite me that much, but looking forward to some of my Sydney brunch favourites after PCP is finished. Breakfast quesadillas is definitely one.

  2. Looks yummy Tracey even minus the egg! Now you shouldn't feel at all bad about your lollies as they easily fit into your indulgence allowance. Hope the heat here stays off. My kids weren't too impressed with the Japanese "summer" this past week, but then they are too young to understand that in the 2 weeks prior to that it was roasting at unbearable temperatures.

    Luckily alcohol in Bali is super expensive and the wine is hard to get so not too much in the way of temptation there. But the food...... oh man that is going to be hard!
