Sushi Samba!

So I've been feeling some peer pressure recently to update this, so here you go. I don't have much to report, so I'll share my experience this past weekend in NYC.

I met up with some of my friends from high school in the city, including one girl who flew in from London. It was good times catching up, and getting updates on our other fellow classmates. Seems like everyone is getting engaged and married. Shows how old we are getting...

Anyway, we went out for dinner to this restaurant where they served a fusion of Japanese, Brazilian, and Peruvian cuisines. We had crazy sushi rolls such as "Neo Tokyo", "Rainbow Dragon", and "El Topo", none of which you'll be able to order in a typical sushi restaurant in Tokyo.

At first I thought the concept of Japanese/Brazilian fusion was weird, but then I realized that there is a huge Japanese community in Brazil, and vice versa. So it's all good, and the place has a really cool ambiance.


Ironically, when people ask me once I'm back in Tokyo what I miss the most in the states, I might just say Sushi.

Dude I'm italian, like Joey. Actually no fine I'll be Chandler.

Damnit. We should start treating Danny more like the little youngster he is. I didn't know he was youngest. Let's spend half our time disdaining him and the other half protecting him from people he's scared of.

Yeah. you're definitely Ross. I'd say Mia is Rachel and Nat is Monica, except Mia's pretty obsessive compulsive, so maybe not.

Venkat thinks you are like Charlotte and Nat is like Miranda. I don't know who that left me being. I guess Carrie...and Pang can be Samantha.

Danny, didn't you buy Nat a bottle of Gewurztraminer for her birthday? And didn't we drink it at her house?
