ramen attempt fail.

So as I've mentioned I found the perfect ramen resturaunt just a few minute bike ride from my apartment, that I have been making plans with Jessica to go and eat there for lunch sometime.  Being a teacher of 31 3 year olds takes more time than I thought it would and it seems I am never going to get out for lunch on time again.  We had originally planned to go out of Wednesday, but I didn't get out till 12:15 and that isn't enough time to ride there, order, eat and get back for her not to be late...so we decided to go the next day instead. Previous day scenario repeated, Friday?  Again fail. 

Yakiniku!
So why then do I have pictures of Yakiniku is this is about a ramen trip failure? 

Well today after work I decided to go grocery shopping at the little market that didn't involve me going over the bridge to Fuji Grand...it't annoying and with a bike full of groceries is a lot of work.  On the way back,  I was getting hungry and I (litterally) ran right into Jessica...bumping bikes with her was on purpose! After askeing if she'd eaten dinner yet and getting a negative, we decided to go out and grab something together...at which point I suggest the ramen resturant we'd been attempting to go to the week before.  It sounded delicious and she is always looking for new places to eat, so we turned our bikes towards our new destination and set off.  It was only a little ways down the street from where we were and reached it in no time. 

When we pulled up to it it was closed...turns out Wednesday is the shop holiday...I should have guessed that, but the place next door was open, so we were like "ehh what the heck, we're already here"  and went over.  Turns out it was a Yakiniku place.  Which are usually out of the way places that you need to drive to.  We were VERY pleasantly supprised to find one so close to our apartment.  I've already told the other English teachers about our discovery and they are excited about it too!!  The food was great, and the prices were awesome...I'll be going back there soon too!
