JAPAN TRIP November 2011

[shutoko]

Hitachino Nest wasn't widely available until recently, fortunately it is one of the jibiru that are starting to show up in convenience stores along with Yona Yona (better on tap but passable in a can), Coedo, Ginga Kogen and Otaru Beer up north.

And if you're really in a bind Toris Highball in a can is pretty good.

I suppose absence and perspective play a part too, I know plenty of friends from over seas who love Carling (UK beer), personally I wouldn't wash a dog in it.

@Giles:

Waiting outside the restaurant for seats.  Often a problem when there is a large group of you and there is a general inability to plan…....

And I chose this, it was a like a Lasagne but utilising noodles instead of pasta sand the ground beef was in the form of 3 meatballs.  And it was delicious...

Was that in Shibuya? The meat company that owns that chain also has a kobe beef burger joint – http://www.kuroge-wagyu.com/bc/

Edit: Doh my wife just told me they're not owned by the same company… Still worth checking out the burger place though.
