Cr*p restaurants!

[Gorn Captain]

A while back, we went to this Japanese restaurant, with the chef standing in the middle, surrounded by hot plates, and the customers around that, getting served. This guy obviously enjoyed putting on a show, but he didn't have the talent. He chopped up food, everybody had to open their mouth, and he would then pitch it in. Ahum...
This guy wasn't Daredevil's archenemy Bullseye, I can tell you. He missed ten times out of ten. My wife gets cranky when she's hungry, so in the end she picked up her food off the ground and chucked it back at him, scoring a direct hit.
That's Belgium 1-Japan 0. We still haven't forgiven them for WWII....

Even more back, we went to this restaurant called Pyro.
You might think that this is where the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants' favorite firestarter ended up, but his powers were...unpredictable, to say the least.
He first went round to take orders, racked all the meat on a large grill, and started "cooking".
After a while, all meat was totally ablaze, we're talking Towering Inferno here. I was expecting OJ Simpson to come in, but no, Mr. Pyro calmly grabbed a bucket of water and put everything out. He then calmly scooped the scorched treats on plates and everybody got served in no time.
No wonder the X-Men always win those fights.....

That would never happen to me because I don't like Japanese food.
Chinese and Thai, OH YES !!!!!!!!!!!!
But not Japanese

BTW, he chucks the food in your mouths ?
For sanitary reasons I don't think the US health department would allow anyone to do that here.

I don't think you and I will ever agree on anything...lol.

Japanese is not only about sushi and sashimi (although I do love that stuff anyway).

Ever tried Kobe beef? Tempura shrimp? Teriyaki chicken?

Yeah...that's what I thought...

There are "Benihana-type" places where that is done across the US.

However, given the litigious nature of our society, it is ill-advised.

Sometimes I think you always disagree with me just for the sake of doing so

If I said Earth was the best planet ever, you'd say no the best planet is Mars

BTW...many people say some of the best Italian food is in Japan...they have mastered Italian food there.

Coming from a land locked, meat and potatoes locale, the food in Japan was one of the most exciting discoveries I made in my three years there. I was a little worried I wasn't going to like it, but that fear went straight out the window the first day I was there.

Besides traditional Japanese Dishes, I loved their spin on Western Food. One of the best hamburgers I've ever eaten was from a Japanese fast food place called Mos Burger.
