Wow ... It was a fusion of Japanese and French meal. It is a Cauchy restaurant in Ikebukuro, Tokyo. All the seats were full of people including the counter. The only thing is there were only three male customers including I and my friend.
I am traveling to Tokyo tomorrow until the 15th. I will do the reporting from Japan. By the way, I will be flying ANA from Seattle to Tokyo tomorrow. I have never flown ANA out of Seattle before.
When you visit Japan, you can use your VISA, MASTER CARD and AMEX like you do back home with exception of ... people may ask you following question.
"Do you want to pay it at once?"
「いっかつでよろしいですか？」
What is that mean? Why do they ask that question?
Well, unlike credit cards in the US, Japanese credit cards require you to pay 100% every month except you ask your merchant to charge it over period of months. いっかつ means, you pay full amount at the end of the month.
Since you are from other countries, this does not apply to any of you. But this is something you should know about it.

One of my staff came back from Japan today. She brought me back the coaster that sucks moisture and keep itself dry. It is very cool. She told me it is a hit product in Japan.
I am going to Japan next Monday. Do you have anything that you want me to report on?
