I recommend Ogisan Ramen Shabu-Shabu. Went there for dinner for the first time yesterday with a friend and thought it was pretty good.



It's not a huge restaurant, but the seating is not bad.



I didn't order ramen, but my friend did, and it looked pretty good.



My teriyaki chicken and agendashi tofu was good too.



The price isn't too bad either compared with the amount of food you get for each order. Worth trying out sometime if you've never tried it before. If you have been there, I think it's worth going back to.

Their fish and beef are pretty tasty and good as well.

The Counter

The Counter
3055 Olin Avenue
San Jose, CA 95128
Phone: 408-423-9200





I recommend The Counter. A good burger place located in Santana Row. Went there recently with some friends for lunch and personally ordered from the "Build Your own Burger" menu.



I built a turkey burger with lettuce and cucumbers and BBQ sauce. It was quite yummy! :) They have tables inside



as well as outside. Their burgers are quite juicy and are pretty good tasting! If you're looking for a good burger place, and have never tried "The Counter", I recommend it!

Trader Joe's Wild Blueberry Tarte



I recommend Trader Joe's Wild Blueberry Tarte. If you're a blueberry fan, this tart is for you! Filled with blueberries and nothing more, it's sweet tasting and the crust is just perfect. Not too dry, not too hard. I've had this many times, and each time I've had it, I've enjoyed every bite!

I believe you have to take it out and let it defrost a bit before eating it though, but I can't be positive so be sure to read the directions beforehand on the back of the box.

Trader Joe's Peach and Blueberry Panna Cotta



I recommend Trader Joe's Peach and Blueberry Panna Cotta. When I first had it, I thought it kind of tasted like Chinese 酸梅, but maybe it was just a first instinct. Personally, I think the blueberry side tastes better than the peach, but it tastes pretty good overall. Good dessert to try if you've never had it before.

Jamba Vanilla Strawberry Jubilation - Yogurt and Sorbet





I recommend Jamba's All Natural Vanilla Strawberry Jubilation Yogurt and Sorbet. Soft juicy yogurt & sorbet bars that have this sweet taste that just melt in your mouth as you take each bite.

My first time trying these bars and personally like them. I heard they have a few different flavors, but this is the only flavor I've had so far.
