"I went to this popular tempura restaurant that's notoriously hard to get a reservation at. I had read reviews that described the tempura as having a 'crispy batter,' so I was worried it might be heavy, but it wasn't at all. While the batter was definitely thicker than other places I've been to, it was still surprisingly light and delicious. I espe"
