Gonpachi - Kill Bill - NOT Marty!

For dinner, we saved up as we didn’t have much other than the snack at Tsukiji and a little sandwich in one of the little shops in the train station. Darren is probably sending Wendy messages asking for her to Door Dash some food to him. Maybe she can send me something too!

But I will say, Darren had picked out a pretty neat site for dinner. It was the location that inspired the restaurant scene from Kill Bill with Uma Thurman. Many of you may know it, for mom and dad and probably Kathy - probably okay not googling that scene or watching it. There’s more carnage in that scene than my Graduate Electrical engineering classes midterm at Duke; and that was a 48! (But I will have you know, it was mid point for all the undergraduate ME’s in the course. The graduate EE’s didn’t think it nearly as hard!).

Overall, the atmosphere was top notch, and since we ate at 5:30 pm, something I’m not too familiar with as it takes me about 4 hours to cook any meal - even a grilled cheese - our Ramadan fasting event worked out pretty well. The food was very good, the drinks were quite yummy and a good time was had by all! And since Marty walked out alive - without another concussion from the overhead door beam, or a knife in the back (yes, Denise finally started reading the blog) - I feel like I came out on top!

Thanks Darren!Read more
