End of Cherry Blossom Season Haiku

I'm trying to do laundry and hang my clothes outside, but seeing as I am on a Cherry Blossom tree lined street, there are petals falling all over the balcony. These are some haiku I just made.


Blowing pink petals
Swirl as they fall to the ground
Short lived Sakura

Blossoms fall like snow
Outside my window I see
Men sweeping the streets

Fatness First-BBQ Chicken Cafe

Grape Drink-check.
Selection of Sauces-check.
Fried Chicken Wrapped in FOIL-CHECK!

Somebody must have lived in the hood for this one. I have never seen fried chicken sold wrapped in plastic and wax paper, with crispy fried outside, served with potato wedges, and grape drink outside of the corner spots or the Amish stands at the market. It is called "BBQ" Chicken & Cafe but it should just be called Fried Chicken & Sauces. I didn't even bother to see any BBQ sauce options. It served 2 piece combos or additional chicken pieces (over priced) with the option of hot sauce (sort of a Texas Pete flavor or thai sweet chili sauce). Japanese have got this one right. It is all fried in olive oil too. They also offer a large selection of fried chicken sandwiches and chicken fingers.

It was delicious and did cause the itus immediately, which I tried to fight off but I ended up sleeping on my grandmothers shoulder on our bus ride back to Shibuya. Thanks to Mike for treating us to this one!
