Well, that's not the only place I went to eat. There's this little sushi bar just a short walking distance from their house where I ate raw frozen thin-sliced whale meat. (Tastes like a blend of beef and tuna. Unexpectedly salty. My son didn't like it. I ate the nine pieces in front of me.

Oh, also went to the shabushabu place in the Fukuoka train station mall on the 10th floor. Awesome. Best shabushabu in my life (not too pricy). Great view from the roof.

Yeah, and Miso soup and rice and other stuff for breakfast.

On the flip side, Denny's in Japan is freaking amazing.

Also, if you know of a Joyfull in the Bay area let me know.

Back around 96 I went to Nagoya and ate at Denny's. My hosts wanted some Western food that day, I guess.

I eat at Tsui Wah late at night when I go to Hong Kong, which is pretty much a HK denny's.
