before you launch into a tirade, the answer is NO,I did not have any. but for those of you who are curious, this is whatwhalemeat sashimi looks like. the really dark meat is regular meat,then there is bacon,skin and tongue. one good thing is that none of the animal goes to waste but still, I cannot bring myself to eat it.

Sake competition
This was very cool. Line a bunch of sake up,six to a table and do a blind tasting. the object is to match them to the labeled ones on the other side of the room.

I was in a rush to have lunch in Azabu Juban earlier this week - I happened upon a brilliant little "pasta bar" restaurant - it's counter seating only, and you come in & choose from 15 different types of spaghetti. Fantastic. I got the 和風 Japanese seafood pasta. Shrimp, squid, bits of fish, etc. and nori sprinkled on top. A little dashi and olive oil to mix up the flavors. It was perfect!
