Spectacular restaurant in Nishi-Azabu. Sit on the 3F for the view down or on the ground floor for banter with the chefs. Highly recommended, but predictably a little pricey.
Koizumi & Tarantino are fans.

Green Sheep

Originally uploaded by lhuga.

Summer has come. Season of BEER :)

So I went to Green Sheep with my friend.
We drank 4~5 pints (!) and ate fish and chips, which was a special menu . Fish was “wakasagi”(I dont know English name) and Chips was “Burdock”. Not bad.
There is a big screen and a big tv like sports bar. We watched Kameda’s match last night. And that was a bit boring.

  • Mike: The Frenchman. Mike, you guys lost. Sorry.
  • Mr. Noguchi: The Quiet Guy. There is always one.
  • Nancy: Miss Funny & True TV Junkie.
  • Lhuga: Blogging Captain and Professional Reservation Maker.
  • Sachiko: Bearer of Cute Keychain Gifts.

Gyoza 1059: The Aftermath.

40 Gyoza 1059 gyoza are entirely too much for 6 people. That’s 6.6 gyoza per person. Sachiko only managed to consume 3. A poor performance, if you ask me. Nancy met her quota. God only knows how many extra I put away to make up for the slackers! Sachiko! Lhuga! Mike? Mr. Noguchi was a bit quiet over in the corner, so I am not sure how many gyoza he destroyed. All in all, a good night. Next, we are off to the beer factory/brewery in Yokohama. This is good for us, but bad for Lhuga: She gets to make more reservations.

Gyoza 1059: The Rules.

They have rules:

  • You only get to order once.
  • No takeout/takeaway.
  • You cannot bring your own to be cooked. Why they felt this rule is needed is baffling.
  • You can order as much beer as you like. I guess this is more a privilege than a rule.

Oh, and the staff is just a tiny bit rude. Not Soup Nazi rude.

Denta (居酒屋 - Izakaya or pub, bar, tavern)

Well, my little sleepy town has been graced with a new drinking establishment – Rather high-class for these parts, if you ask me. Today I popped my head in as they were getting ready for another day of business. Initially, I just wanted a few pictures of the owner and the outside, but the owner’s wife, Hiromi, invited me in to take more shots of the interior. The flickr photo set is here.
