|
| Stupid finger is in the way...
|
| Menu at local Chinese restaurant. This is your typical Japan-ized Chinese food...

| Tonight's dinner of chuutoro, ootoro, hotate, cucumber/fish salad, and saba over rice. Can you belive all that sushi for only Y3000 (around $28)

| Mitsuko (cousin) told me about Starbuck's maccha frappachino, so I hate to try it. Too bad it's not availble in the US.
