Kurama; How many times have we uttered this / met there / threw down quick or celebrated long? This place is a gem and still somewhat of a small, best kept secret. Known for sure by foodies, local chefs and most certainly by the Japanese community…this hibachi joint on 15-501 business in Durham on the service road across from Target is a favorite of mine and many others.
I bought a couple of different varieties of sweet earth burritos from Kroger to try it and the Peruvian was my favorite. I paid $3.39 each @ Kroger. But the burritos are to die for. They are filled from edge to edge with tasty whole ingredients that work beautifully together. This was my first time eating seitan and it may be my new favorite meat substitute. I prefer the taste and texture of soy protein or tofu.
Here in Durham we have a few choices for Vietnamese food and I’m glad to say that if you live in West Durham or near Duke or downtown …you don’t have to travel far anymore. At 2816 Erwin Road # 207 on the front side of the building facing Erwin Road is Pho and Poke.
