the mario drive-by is epic
Wow, that is really cool that you got to try this yakitori restaurant. I remember seeing the Bourdain episode so that is awesome to find the HQ. And what a nice gesture that they were able to take you to the Toriki HQ to have the full experience. And having that Mario kart drive-by is totally EPIC and worthy of a PuristS trip LOL.

re: Toriki
Incredible you found the place you were looking for! When we where in Tokyo, it was so hard to find, even given the address the taxi cab drivers didn't know exactly where to go. You are brave for trying chicken sashimi, that's a bit extreme for me so than...

Absolutely....
The only thing missing from the experience was the old Purists crew, would have increased the enjoyment two fold for sure! :-) S
Super post
That Mario guy is fantastic. How I covet one of those karts. Would make city driving a breeze, especially were it to come with unlimited red turtle shell functionality. Really enjoyed both of your recent contributions, so thank you.
My Pleasure Dear Sir...
More is on the way with your kind permission :-) and I second you on the kart, imagine if we all used karts instead of cars, how much fun would that be :-) S
