At least sardines have some wiggle room.



This ought to be a sign that they need more trains or a change of schedule for more runs

I got talked into doing this by a friend five years ago. "Oh, it'll be fun," he said, "it's part of the local culture." I literally thought I was going to suffocate. I knew it was bad, but I didn't expect it to be like that. We bailed as soon as possible, but since traffic was so congested, it was useless to get a cab, so we walked all the way back to the Hyatt on Nishi Shinjuku (yes, the one on Lost in Translation--luckily before the movie was released as I've heard a bunch of tourists come to take pictures and cram the lobby now). It really sucked (the train & walk, not the hotel).

I know, it was totally stupid. He's also the guy who will eat any street food anywhere! I've got a pretty strong stomach, but I'm not falling for that!

Yep, my wife has one of those... hmmmm... How should I put it? expanded taste buds?

Oh, I like food from all over the world, just in a decent restaurant, usually. I'm not up for eating the deep-fried mystery meat on a stick some guy's selling from a cart that's getting blasted by car exhaust in Ho Chi Minh City or Mbabane or wherever. This guy will!
