The craziest and most guilty thing I did in 2007 was visiting Japan too many times, so here is another belated back-from-Tokyo post.

All Star Don @ 若狭屋 Wakasa-ya
I first learned about this seafood-don chain restaurant from some random TV show uploaded to YouTube. I could not Google for the address because I didn’t know how to say the Kanji name. I was lucky enough to find one when I went to Ueno.
You can order a la carte, or if you are like me and don’t speak Japanese, you can go for the “All Star Don”.

All Star Don @ Wakasa-ya

Wakasa-ya is nationwide, despite the fact that they don’t have a website. Here is the one I went to:

Satou Steak House
I went there for menchi-katsu last time, so I knew they got some good beef there.

Satou Lunch

Magical Pudding @ Ko-men

Magical Pudding

They used to call this "The Best Pudding in History", but they changed the name to "Magical Pudding" recently. This pudding is the signature dish of this chain ramen restaurant. It really is the best pudding I have had and I go there every time I visit Japan.

Assorted video footage. Enjoy!

The trip was sponsored by Larry’s generous accommodation. More photos here. I also made a day trip to Hakone (photos).

Though not authentic, spicy chopped scallop roll is still my all-time favourite.

Went to Blue Water Cafe with Steve and Jon for our last dine out of the year. It was even better than CRU and I am glad we did not cancel our reservation.

The chocolate sorbet looks like a Taiwanese soya sauce egg.

Mental note: Watch out for tripod-related jokes from these guys.
