Food Court is not a Food Court




After 19.5 hours, two servings of chicken and rice, and a frozen ham sandwich (thanks American Airlines) we went to eat at the department store near our hotel.  A department store in Shibuya that has an endless food court including a sushi joint so tasty the wait was over 2.5 hours (25 ppl + waiting in line), a food court that had several gourmet grocers tucked away in the basement, and a Cold Stone Creamery.  I voted for Stone Cold, but was flat-out denied.  We ate at Tonkatsu Wako-  I like saying the name- TONKATSU WAKO!  A Katsudan restaurant. All Katsudan... all the time.  One large bottle of Kirin, two servings of Katsudan, with clam miso soup, shredded cabbage, and a bowl of rice apparently delivered from the gods.  The rice had this texture that made me want to order 3 more bowls.

Now I'm off to practice at Hombu Dojo in Shinjuku-ku-  missed the 6:30am Saturday class. Gonna try to find it by 8am.
