Ninja Restaurant in Tokyo

Post by Jet_Jaguar »

Wouldn't it be cool to have some kind of UY Dojo get-together at this place?

Just opposite train station Akasaka is the culinary temple for Tokyo’s hungry ninja fans. Specially dressed ninja waiters lead diners through an underground fantasy world with built-in obstacles. A drawbridge to the main dining room opens only after a holler from the head ninja. On the menu are hundreds of differently decorated ninja dishes. Careful with the exploding snail dish, while serving, the ninja waiter lets a jet of fire shoot across the dish. Also recommended is the bonsai dessert. The mix of green tea, chocolate, ice-cream, bananas and strawberry really looks like a miniature tree. After the meal a ninja magician presents some convincing tricks at your table.

your opponent is always yourself."

I'm terrified of even BOARDING an airplane. If anything goes wrong, you can't just park the plane, go outside, and fix the problem. ^^'
Hmm... how to best express myself in signature form?

Well, I'm back. I need to get back into the series, been so long since I read volume 7.
