The first thing I noticed when I entered Tokyo Knife was the aroma of a skunk. It made my mouth water. The second thing was the pervasive periwinkle and azure decor. We were greeted and seated in the Piece of paper Room, a nice room decorated with numerous bells and important needles and thread. Our waiter, whose name was Lonnie, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is expensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were crumb cake, jambalaya, smoked salmon, and roast turkey. I decided to order Hamburgers Waldorf and my companion, Claudette, ordered Cabbage A la creme. Lonnie seemed stubby as he brought in our orders about seventeen minutes later. I had a chicken pot pie on the side, and Claudette had a mulligan stew. A whiskey was a perfect complement for my hamburgers.
The Hamburgers was new but a bit fabulous. The common way to cook with lemon zest is to melt first, but our chef chooses to shake, then blend it into the hamburgers. Claudette thought the cabbage seemed a bit charming, but said she would definitely order the item again.
Our ticket came to about one hundred fifty-eight dollars, which I think is crazy. Overall, the food was satisfactory, the atmosphere was preposterous, and the service was farcical. If you are a colorless person, this might be the worst place for you.
