Well in all honesty, I didn't know you could get there by public transportation.<BR/>Mitsuwa is totally awesome! That plastic food is an art. I either read something on a blog or saw it on TV but the lengths to which they go to get that food perfect is mind boggling. Where I would take shortcuts, they do not... the example that comes to mind (the part that I actually saw) was a guy making shrimp tempura. He made the shrimp, then striated it with paint by hand (adding the pink stripes), then coated it in the tempura flakes - we're not even going to see the pink stripes of the shrimp, but he did it anyway! WTF awesome. It's like this whole industry that booms...Yvo Sinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16079404679872479801noreply@blogger.com
