Gaijin Gourmet: 「モンスターMOGULLA！東京の地下からこんにちは」

2015年9月10日 / 4 Comments

(English version of this article is here: All of Japan is Under Invasion! This is War! modernmarketingjapan.blogspot.jp/2015/09/all-of-japan-is-under-invasion-this-is.html)

「SOS! SOS! SOS! 緊急事態発生！東京が何者かによって攻撃にされています！」。ノイズだらけのラジオから聞こえてくる悲痛な叫び。東京は、いまだかつてないほどに危機的状況にさらされている。国家非常事態発生。日本の大都市東京が「やつら」に襲われています。「やつら」は、あたなのすぐそばに、あなたが立っている道路の下に、そしてあなたの家にも「やつら」がいるかもしれません。

そう！東京は今「MOGULLA（モグラ）の攻撃にさらされているのです！」

モグラはこの美しい東京の地下のいたるところにいます。それは、地下のパイプが老朽化していて穴やひびができているからです。国はそれを治そうとはしません。なぜなら全てを修復するお金がありませんからね。そう！国家でさえ、モグラの暴走を止める事ができないのです！

我々の成すすべはないのです。

ただ、僕には秘密兵器があります！美しい女性達よ！もしあなた達の家や庭でモグラ問題に直面しているのであれば、この記事はあなた方にとってお金の節約になるかもしれませんよ。なぜかって？もぐら退治に業者を呼ぶととてもお金がかかります。そして、あなたの家や庭に毒を打ち込むなんであまりいいアイデアとは思えないしね。特にお子さんやペットが暮らしている場合は。

僕が今から教えるモグラ退治の方法はとてもばかげていて、子どもじみてるけどとても簡単で安上がりなんです！

早く知りたいって？それじゃあ説明を始めよう。

ある日、僕の家から出ると道路が水浸しになっていたんだけど、よく見たら道路に穴が空いているんだよね。僕の家の向こう側だったから、その時は特に気にもとめなかった。

また別の日、家を出たら僕の家のまん前に穴が空いているんだよね！

その穴は毎日毎日大きくなって、僕の家の前の家の穴が一番でかくなってきて、これは危ない！誰か落ちちゃう！区役所に電話しないと。。。市役所の人を呼んだら、この怠惰な職員はこう言ったんだよね「ここは私道だから僕らは何もできないな。」

しかたなく、僕は水道会社、ガス会社、電気会社、そしてもちろんドミノピザに電話して、彼らを呼んだら、彼らはこう言うんだよね「これは、区役所の仕事だな。」

これを堂々巡りって言うんだよね！

そうこうするうちに、僕の家の前はまるでクレーターができたようになってきて、これはまずいと近所の人が集まって臨時集会をやる事になったんだ！こういう時は、僕は奥さんに全てを任せるよにしているんだよね。なぜかって？僕はイケメン外人（R）だから僕が何を言おうが考えようがそんな事誰も気にしてはくれないからね。

僕の奥さんも僕の話なんて聞いてくれないしね。

とにかく、近所のみんなでお金を出し合って業者に穴をふさいでもらった。とにかくこれで一安心だと思ったよ。一週間はね。一週間後、またそこらじゅうに穴が。。。

僕らは専門家を呼んで調査をしてもらう事にしたんだよね。彼は僕を見て意地悪そうな目をしながら一言こう言った「“MOGULLA! 間違えないモグラ！」

MOGULLA（もぐら）！下水道を走り回り、夜になると住民の生活を脅かす卑劣で薄汚いない害獣を止める手段はないのか？このままでは近所住民も恐怖で家の外に出れなくなってしまう。。。

まさにモンスターモグラ（R）の恐怖！

僕達は最終手段として駆除業者のエキスパートを呼んだ。エキスパートは「この辺のモグラは退治できるけど、下水管にひびが入っていたら、他の場所から来ちゃうよ。」と言った。東京の地下には、何千何万ものモグラが潜んでいるそうだ。

ぞっとする話でしょ？

この話を聞いてご近所の女性達が恐怖で震えている。僕は彼女達を落ち着かせようと、とても落ち着いた様子で彼女達にこう言ったんだ「何も心配する事はないよレディース、僕はこの解決方法を知っているよ。リーサルウエポン（最終兵器）「デリシャスリベンジ」があるからね。」

僕は彼女達に親指を立てて、ウインクを送りその場を立ち去った。まるでハリウッドスターみたいにね。その場にいた全員が「あらまあ〜！素敵なイケメン外人(R)ねえ！」と思ったのは疑いの余地はないだろう。

ここで、僕の最終兵器「デリシャスリベンジ」について説明しよう。

僕が幼い頃、僕は農場に住んでいた。農場にはモグラも沢山いたから、僕はやつらがオレンジの香りが好きなのを知っていた。オレンジ味のガムが好きな事も。。。そう、モグラはオレンジ味のガムが好きなんだ！でも、やつらはガムを消化できないから、ガムを沢山食べるとガムがお腹にたまってそのうちに死んでしまう。

そう、「デリシャスリベンジ」は道路の穴の近くにオレンジ味のガムを置いてモグラにガムを食べさせ退治するという方法。その時、必ず手袋をしてガムを素手で触れないようにしてね。モグラは人間の匂いがするものは食べないからね。次の日、ガムが置いた場所にあるかどうかを確認します。もし、ガムが無くなっていたら新しいガムを置きます。その繰り返しをしていると、そのうちモグラは戻ってこなくなります。

家の前で道路を工事している人達の片隅で、僕はまるで狂った科学者のように高笑いをしながら、「マルカワマーブルガム」のオレンジ味を置いた。そして、僕はクリントイーストウッドのような低い声でこう言う。「最後の晩餐を楽しみなモグラ」。

道路の穴が塞がれていく。モグラは今夜、僕の最終兵器「デリシャスサプライズ」を味わう事になるだろう。

この時、僕は勝利を確信した。

「マルカワマーブルガム」オレンジ味よ！この世界にこのガムがある事を神に感謝します。このガムを僕は子どもの時からずっと好きだった。モグラを退治できるからだけじゃない。このすばらしい味と、自慢になってしまうけど僕はこのガムで風船を作れる。それだけじゃない、僕の心を落ち着けてくれる！

僕はオレンジ味よりグレープ味の方が好きだけどね。

Gaijin Gourmet! New Delicious Yakitori (Chicken BBQ on Sticks) In Futakotamagawa!

2015年8月26日 / No Comments

Finally! There’s a delicious Yakitori (BBQ chicken on sticks) in Futakotamagawa. I am a regular there and went there again last night to participate in the venue’s fare and was, as usual, quite pleased.

http://youtu.be/htPvQMqEo8c

（The above video was made by Ken Nishikawa and me! If you are interested in an inexpensive video advertising solution for your business, contact Robot55! contact@robot55.jp)

The shop’s name is “Flat.” It is a 5 minute walk from Futakotamagawa station on the Den-en-Toshi Line. (Two stops by express train – six by local train – from Shibuya). It is on the side of the station a few minutes walk from Takashimaya so it’s a great place to go if the ladies want to go shopping too!

Downstairs seats 12. Upstairs “Zasshiki” (japanese floor tatami style) Seats about 10.

Room for about 12 to seat on the first floor and a standing bar for four people or so. On the second floor, there is a tatami room that seats ten.

Friendly, polite staff

Friendly staff and a spic and span cleanliness (always a must for the Gaijin Gourmet!)

Spotless kitchen

The kitchen is kept spotless and anyone can easily view the food preparation. The standing bar is directly opposite the barbecue rack (to the left of this picture) so anyone can see how clean and spotless the facilities are.

It says, (ふらっと　炭火焼）”Flat Sumibiyaki” (sumibiyaki means “cooked over charcoal”)

All the cooked chicken items I had were very delicious.

I don’t like dethawed frozen meats and the menu at Flat had fresh chicken. Delicious. It is about ¥160 per piece, which is a tad bit pricy, but like I said, it is not frozen meats so the taste is superb… Good Yakitori never needs sauce and only salt. I don’t even use salt so I can really taste good meat. This place has good quality chicken! Fresh!

The owner and head chef is Shimodai san. If you go there, tell him “Mike sent you!”

The Teen Titans, Guitar Wolf, Puffy Amiyumi and Me – A True Story

2015年8月22日 / No Comments

Wow! Today is another true story! I’m going to brag about the rock stars I hobnob with! (Snore!)

Everyone has seen the animation “Teen Titans,” right? The theme song for that animation was sang by Japan’s Puffy Amiyumi, and, on that song, the mighty Guitar Wolf’s lead vocal and guitarist, Seiji, played guitar solo.

My now 11-year-old son really liked Teen Titans (we don’t have a TV so we sometimes let him watch DVDs – a few times). So he really liked that theme song. The animation? He didn’t like that so much.

But, yesterday I came home from a TV show recording and then I showed him the photo of Seiji and me (at the top of this post) and asked him if he remembered that “guy who played guitar in the Teen Titans theme song”?

His eyes grew wide and he said, “Yeah! Dad! I remember!”

“That’s him!” I said. My son was mightily impressed!

Then we both watched the theme song video on Youtube once again together!

Check it. It is awesomely cool!

Puffy Ami Yumi – Teen Titans https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhhOMceBJv8

OK. That’s the Teen Titans…. I’ve also known (not well because they are big stars) Puffy for a long time too… Kind of…

Well, anyway, one half of Puffy Amiyumi, Yumi, was on a TV show on WOWOW TV a little while back that I worked on. I didn’t do anything, I just worked on the show. When I saw her, I said, “Hi Yumi! Do you remember me?” Of course she said, “Yes!” but I could tell by the look in her eyes, she didn’t.

That’s OK, she probably thought my face was familiar but all foreigners look alike! (Bwa! Ha! Ha!)

Puffy were also the main hosts of a TV show that George Williams was on (I’m George’s manager) and that must have been 15~20 years ago too.

A few months ago, at Wowow, I took my photo with Yumi… But I can’t find it now (of course). And, of course, I can’t find any of the really old photos…. But I will post them here if and when I do.

Anyway, Puffy Amiyumi are cool and this video for “Teen Titans” was seen around the world!… Also, did you notice something “funny” right after Seiji’s “guital” solo?

Seiji of Guitar Wolf stars in the guitar solo for the theme song of Teen Titans… They spelled it “Guitalist”????

Yeah. That’s right. They misspelled “Guitarist.”

OK. Very funny guys. You know they intentionally misspelled it (?)… Pretty humorous if you ask me.

Anyway, onto Guitar Wolf. I’ve known Seiji from Guitar Wolf for a very long time too, over 20 years. Seiji has been a guest on many TV and radio shows I’ve worked on or produced for a very long time. Seiji appears on my shows because we are some of the few programs radical enough to play them. The photo at the very top of this article is Seiji and me from yesterday. He was a guest on a TV program that I produce.

Yesterday was the first time I have seen Seiji in nearly 10 years! When I saw him, I said, “Hi Seiji! Do you remember me?” Of course he said, “Yes!” but I could tell by the look in his eyes, he didn’t. That’s OK, Seiji is just like me and we both drink too much. I can’t remember what happened this morning!

Seiji probably thought my face was familiar but all foreigners look alike! (Bwa! Ha! Ha!)

Seiji is cool. I do have an old photo of me and Seiji and Guitar Wolf from a very long time ago. This might have been around 1991 or so. That’s me on the far left in the blue Hawaiian shirt.

Guitar Wolf visits “Channel G” (circa 1991)

When Guitar Wolf came to the radio station in the photo above, we really got drunk! It was a great time!

And we, er, uh…. We uh…. uh….

Let me see… What was I talking about? Getting drunk? Guitar Wolf? Ummm…. I forgot….

Oh yeah, now I remember! Seiji also is the guest vocalist on the Mutants new single, “Dead Beat Generation”! We’ve been playing it on the radio and it was on the Top 3 Video Countdown at the end of July! Check it out!

The Mutants “Dead Beat Generation” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ePusZGB68I

Anyway, what’s the point? I don’t know. Does there need to be a point? Probably not when we’re talking about the awesome Guitar Wolf!

Thanks Guitar Wolf! Thanks Puffy Amiyumi! Thanks to you all for at least one good memory from a childhood! (and a chance for dad to brag years later!)

Gaijin Gourmet – Beware! The Worst Noodle Restaurant in Tokyo?

2015年8月10日 / 1 Comment

Welcome to another installment of the Gaijin Gourmet. Today we are definitely scrapping the bottom of the barrel for, er, “restaurants” and cheap places to eat. Today I was asked to write a review of “Donbei.”

Donbei is a, er, “restaurant” on Shibuya Japan Railways (JR) Yamanote Line Platform. I use the term, “restaurant” loosely because Donbei only serves instant noodles! Get it? They only pour hot water into plastic bowls of instant noodles!

Do you call that a “restaurant”? Are you kidding me?

As most of you could probably guess by the high quality prose available in the Gaijin Gourmet ®, I get paid a thousand dollars per word ® for each of these articles I write! But I was chewing off my fingernails wondering if I should accept or decline this, er, “restaurant” review. But, for the good of humanity, I decided to persevere and move forward.

I’ve eaten school lunches; I’ve eaten convenience store bento; I’ve even eaten my first girlfriend’s souffle she made for me as a bizarre dating experiement! Urgh!

But this? What had hell wroth?

A “restaurant” review of an establishment that pours hot water into instant noodles??? What? The same kind of instant noodles that the convenience store sells for ¥120 yen?

I wrote a one word review: “No!”

Then my editor said they wouldn’t pay me for just one word. Cheapskates!

I then wrote a two word review that said, “Absolutely not!”

Still, even at more than twice the letterage, that wasn’t enough for the slave drivers that run Robot55!

I explained that if I wrote more than two words, I could do nothing but devolve into lines of invective and how much I hate instant noodles and hate myself for actually even considering for a moment in accepting this assignment.

The Gaijin Gourmet® might be a cheapskate, that I often have a beer* at home before going out to drink just to save money, but even he has to draw the line somewhere! (*= Actually a cheap beer substitute like Happoshu.)

I have my pride!!!!

Close up of the front panel of Donbei

Now, normally, the Gaijin Gourmet’s job is to show you, dear reader, how you can get a great meal, in an expensive city like Tokyo, for under $5 (USD). That’s my mission and I’m sticking with it. There’s a bunch of links below that point you, dear reader, into the right direction for some delicious, healthy and inexpensive food for you and the whole family (I have four kids too!)

But, today? Today is different! Today worse than a can of tuna that’s twenty years past expiration date! Today’s post is similar to my warning about asking Japanese girls on a date (please refer to: Gaijin Gourmet Advice for Foreign Gentlemen Living in Japan!); today is a warning to STAY AWAY from noodle restaurant’s that are on train platform’s or inside of the train or subway stations.

Generally, speaking, they can be cheap, but if a noodle shop is inside the train or subway station, then it’s a good bet that they are all mostly TERRIBLE!

Front of Donbei at Shibuya Station

And, of all the terrible “restaurants” that exist in Tokyo, today I have the displeasure of warning you to STAY AWAY from Donbei at Shibuya JR Station (it’s on the platform heading towards Shinjuku). This place might be the worst noodle shop in all of Japan!

There were actually three customers there at lunch time! You kidding me????

“The worst in Japan? How that be?” you say? Well, it looks like a nice restaurant from outside, but all they serve are instant noodles! Really. No kidding. You buy a ticket from the ticket meal machine and then hand it to the kitchen staff and they rip open an instant noodle pack and pour in hot water!

And people actually go there? WTF?! Are you kidding me???? I thought people only eat this kind of instant noodles when they are at home late at night; or when there’s a typhoon and they are stuck at the office! You mean, people actually go outside and eat this stuff? Voluntarily?!

This is either a sick joke or some genius idea! I’m not sure!

Well, I can say the kitchen is spotless… Should be when the only thing they do is boil water.

You know, I don’t eat this sort of instant ramen at home anyway. I used to. But this stuff isn’t all that healthy for you, you know? It’s all just chemicals reconstituted and reformed to look and taste like food. It isn’t real food. Stay away from all these sorts of places!

Ah, the second time I looked inside it was about 2 pm… It was empty. Any surprises there?

The above photo was the second time I actually looked inside this fine dining establishment. It was the last….

You know, it takes hard work becoming the best at anything, be it a restaurant, a band, a company, anything… It also takes an incredible amount of effort to be the worst…. If you think you’ve eaten at some terrible places, then I suggest that you go out an try Donbei so that you can actually realize just how lucky you’ve been so far!

I figure Donbei must be some sort of promotional gimmick… Because there’s no way they are making any money doing this since the place is always empty… And, here I am, promoting this place with today’s post. Sheesh! For all I know, because of this article, Donbei will become a famous must-see tourist attraction in Shibuya for foreigners before the Tokyo Olympics.

Move over Hachiko (the dog statue)! Donbei has arrived – and you don’t even have to leave the station!

Gaijin Gourmet! The Best, Most Delicious Soba Restaurant in Shibuya and Shinjuku? Shinshu Soba!

2015年8月5日 / 14 Comments

It’s time once again for the original and world famous Gaijin Gourmet!

The votes are in folks, there is a winner for the best and cheapest while being extremely delicious soba restaurant in Shibuya and Shinjuku and that winner is Shinshu Soba.

Now, I know I announced the best Soba Chain in Tokyo as being Yude Taro. Please refer to: Gaijin Gourmet – Best Soba Chain in Tokyo？Yude Taro and ¥220 Draft Beer?! and I stand by that recommendation. But, if you are within 1 minute of Shibuya station or within 3 minutes of Shinjuku station then I must make an exception and recommend Shinshu Soba as the best, and most delicious for the price.

Shinshu Soba’s shortcoming? Even though it is a chain-restaurant, there are only two restaurants in the entire chain! Yude Taro is almost everywhere inside of the Yamanote Train Line loop around Tokyo!

Today, let’s look at what is undoubtedly my, and my close friend’s, very favorite soba shop in Shibuya; Shinshu Soba!

Front entrance of Shinshuu Soba at Shibuya

Incredibly, the best soba in Shibuya is also the closest to the station (how did that happen?) Shinshu Soba is about 1 minute walk from Shibuya. It’s 10 seconds from the Mark City Building… Walking directly from JR Shibuya station, when you see the escalator to go up into Mark City, keep walking straight (The pachinko places are to your right). turn right at the second small street. There is Shinshu soba on your left. Can’t miss it.

Menu outside the door of Shinshuu Soba

Shinshu Soba caught my eye because the first time I went there, the place was packed with women. Why is this important in Japan? Because if an establishment (especially a basically stand-up eating place that caters to businessmen, is packed with women, that can only mean one thing: The food is great and the prices fantastic and the place is clean!)

The kitchen at Shinshuu Soba

Fast service, delicious food, great prices and a spotlessly clean kitchen. What more could you want? Oh, and the Shibuya restaurant does have seating for about 10 people… But if you want to sit down, do not go there during the lunch or dinner rush. There’s a line of people to get in at those times. Another sign of a great place to eat at excellent prices.

The traditional soba dishes and a much larger selection of tastes that even women and children like!

The prices at Shinshuu Soba and Yude Taro are comparable. But! Shinshu Soba does beat out Yude Taro for the Mori Soba (pictured on the right above). That’s a plate of delicious healthy cold soba noodles for $2.00 (USD) and, of course, in Japan, no tipping! Can’t beat it anywhere!

Katsudon (fried pork cutlet on bed of rice) and plate of cold soba for ¥600 (about $4.80 USD)

If you want to eat healthy soba noodles and you are near Shibuya or Shinjuku station, the you can’t beat Shinshuu Soba. Anywhere else in Tokyo? Yude Taro is hard to beat.

Shinshu Soba Shibuya: Shibuya Ku, Dogenzaka 2-6-4

Open weekdays from 7:30～23:15 Sunday and holidays 9:00～22:00 Open 365 days a year!

Shinshu Soba Shinjuku: Shinjuku Ku, Shinjuku 3-35-5

Open weekdays from 7:30～23:30 Sunday and holidays 7:30～23:00

Tell them the Gaijin Gourmet sent you!

Gaijin Gourmet Advice for Foreign Gentlemen Living in Japan!

2015年7月28日 / 7 Comments

Hello, dear friends. Today is a special edition of Gaijin Gourmet especially designed for you foreign gentlemen living in Japan!

This article isn’t so much about where to eat, but about how to ask your potential date to go out to eat with you!

For many of us foreigners, when speaking Japanese, we have a bit of consternation with hearing and speaking vowels in Japanese.

For examples, “Let’s go out to eat?” and “Let’s go on a trip?” These are, respectively, “Tabe ni ikimashou ka?” (“Let’s go out to eat?” or more properly, “Do you want to go out to eat with me?”) and “Tabi ni ikimashou ka?” (Do you want to go on a trip with me?”)

Get it? “Do you want to go out to eat with me?” is “Tabe ni ikimashou ka?” but, “Do you want to go on a trip with me?” sounds almost exactly the same to the foreign ear; “Tabi ni ikimashou ka?”

“Tabe” is “eat.” “Tabi” is “trip.”

So, foreign guys living in Japan, we must be very careful with our pronunciation with this phrases.

If we are not careful to enuciate correctly, it sounds like we might be saying (to a girl or guy, your choice) “Let’s go on a trip” instead of “Let’s go out to eat.”

Seriously, long ago, I would call some girl and say to her, “Tabe ni iku?” (Thinking, “Let’s go drink beer and eat Yakitori.”)… But my pronunciation was bad, so it sounded like I said, “Tabi ni iku?” (“Let’s go on a trip!”)

She’d say, “OK. I’ll be over in an hour or so after I take a shower and get ready.”

I’d think, “What the hell??? We’re just going to eat Yakitori!….Why do you have to take a shower and get ready?”

Then, an hour and a half later (with me starving and dying for a drink) she’d show up at my door with a small suitcase and a bag and, looking confused, I’d say,

“Hey, why do you have a suitcase? You going somewhere?”

Sometimes, it seemed like those girls were mad at me or in a bad mood after that. I could never figure out why.

That’s a true story and I think it happened 3 or 4 times like that until one of my good friends (a guy) said I had to be careful with “Tabe” (eat) and “Tabi” (trip)….. (I was wondering why he showed up at my door with a suitcase! Yikes!)

Here, all this time I was asking these girls to go eat chicken on sticks and drink booze with me, but they were thinking we were going to some ritzy hotel for candle light dinner and, who knows, a marriage proposal?

I guess you might call this a, “PROBLEM IN COMMUNICATION.”

Anyway, if you ask a girl to go eat a bite and drink with you and she shows up at the door with a small suitcase, you’ll know either:

a) Your pronunciation needs serious work. or;

b) You have a new girlfriend.

That’s me, the Gaijin Gourmet, Mike Rogers, signing off!

Gaijin Gourmet features a photo of a roast pig that doesn’t particularly have anything to do with this article. Enjoy!

This article inspired by my dear friend, Enrico Ciccu… Who asks girls to go on vacations with him all the time.

Gaijin Gourmet: The Best Steak Deal in All of Tokyo? Aussie Beef Steak for ¥790 at Big Boy Restaurants

2015年7月3日 / No Comments

I have found the best steak deal in Japan. It’s at Big Boy Restaurants (Where they also have the most inexpensive salad bar in town – See: The Gaijin Gourmet: The Best Salad Bar Deal in Tokyo at Big Boy – My Favorite Rock N Roll Diner!! robot55.jp/blog/the-gaijin-gourmet-the-best-salad-bar-deal-in-tokyo-at-big-boy-my-favorite-rock-n-roll-diner/).

The steak is a 120 gram Aussie beef steak that comes with potatoes, corn and string beans. You also have your choice of 4 different sauces. My son always goes for the butter and garlic. The entire set goes for only ¥790! At ¥120 yen to the US Dollar, ¥790 works out to be about $6.58 for a delicious steak!… And, in Japan, there’s no tipping either! Wow!

(¥790 for one 120 gram steak. ¥1390 for two of them. The prices in the red box are for the steaks with the salad and soup and drink bar. Incredibly inexpensive!)

I think that’s much cheaper than even in the USA.

How do they do this great food at such a low price?

Delivered sizzling hot to your table

My son just loves this steak!

High quality cuts too. Not fatty. No gristle.

Can’t find a better steak deal in Japan!

My son loves that steak deal (Mom and dad will love the price!) Unbelievable deal! The rest of the menu is also filled with incredible deals; especially at lunch time… Oh, and the parking is free!!!

When folks from the west come to Japan, and if they are watching their budget, then Big Boy cannot be beat. 5 out of 5 stars for quality, cleanliness and price.

Check it out at Big Boy!

Kabuki star Kankurou and Happy Client Sends Us Gourmet Cherries! 六代目中村勘九郎写真集と高級チェリー!

2015年6月24日 / No Comments

Hey! Thanks! I received a box of delicious super-expensive cherries called “Sato Nishiki.” I’m not exactly sure but I think these are the kinds of cherries that you do not see in grocery stores as they are extremely expensive and reserved for the very rich, wealthy and famous…

Oh, and the Rogers’ house also got one box this year.

Sato Nishiki Cherries

They don’t sell these on the internet… But I know that these gourmet cherries sell for, are you sitting down? About ¥1000 for one cherry! Get that? ¥That’s about $9 (USD) each for one single cherry. Really.

One thousand yen a cherry? About $9 (USD) for one cherry?! The box we received had 50 cherries in it. It’s like one of those things you’d see on CNN talking about how watermelons sell for $250 each in Tokyo…. “And this box of cherries goes for about $500! Can you believe it?!”

We did a small amount of work for Kobunsha Publishers for their project for the famous Kabuki star, Nakamura Kankurou photo collection book that is pictured above. (Here’s the Amazon link: 六代目中村勘九郎写真集 http://amzn.to/1K9fQQl). The photo book is a very high-brow, high quality work of art. Kankuro comes from a family of Kabuki greats that embody what Kabuki is to Japan. It’s a fantastic book and a great gift for anyone who is interested in the enigma of Japan and all things Japanese.

The folks at Kobunsha also always send us the ladies gossip magazine Josei Jishin every week! Josei Jishin is one of the oldest and most popular weekly magazines in Japan having been around over 50 years! They have access to everyone and anyone in Japan. They even have access to the imperial household.

It’s wonderful working with nice people like the folks at Kobunsha. It’s nice working with people who are kind and have manners and Esprit Du Corps.

Thanks Kobunsha. You are the best! I am honored to work with you always!
