Why this post is late
Last night after work I went to Shinagawa which is close to Tokyo station. There I met Ayako and we then met 3 of her coworkers. Her boss Tomiyama-san was present and wanted to meet me.
So we all went out to eat dinner and drink. We drank a lot and ate some very tasty Japanese food. In Japan you cannot do one without the other.
I tried a certain paste that was green color like wasabi, and it packed a punch like wasabi, but it wasn’t. I dont recall what it was, but will research and get back to you. It had an interesting sour taste at first, and was quite good on some of the dumplings we ate.
There was a lot of talk in both Japanese and English. Quite enjoyable.

I have discovered about a half mile from the apartment, a lovely multicultural grocery store. It has mexican, spanish, portugese, japanese and korean foodstuffs. I eagerly await the time i can again explore it. This only mildly relates to you, but meh. I wanted to share.

sounds like a cool store. Atlanta has quite a few international stores. There is a big farmers market in downtown area with lots of goodies.
thanks for sharing =)
