Domino Pizza in Japan

Sooooooooo Cute! "Let's go! Let's play."
 
These are Domino Pizza's local specialty pizzas for Autumn: the Hokkaido (north) special is salmon pizza; the Fukuoka (south) special is chicken with yuzu kosho pizza; the Nagoya special is miso-flavored chicken; and the Kobe special is green onions and Gyu-suji (beef tendon). Having seen such pizzas, I decided I won't complain about any creative sushi rolls. :-). By the way, which one would you try and which one would you not want to try at all? Since I know what each of those Japanese toppings taste like, I think salmon would be good but miso would be too strongly flavored to be a good pizza topping.
 
Time Out London has this article: "Time Out's 50 greatest animated films." No.1 is Totoro, No.2 is Snow White. My favorite, Ghost in the Shell, is No.34! Lupin the 3rd - Castle of Cagliostro did not rank in. :-(
 
The Visual Kei band festival V-rock will be held next week. Not only will they have well-known Japanese bands like Versailles, but some foreign bands, like Marilyn Manson from the US, will join this event as well. Next week, the area around Makuhari station will smell like a cosmetics shopping area. It might be fun to see a huge number of visual fans too.
 
There is an old café called "Kitayama coffee shop" in Ueno. In that cafe, you’re not allowed to read a book, have a meeting or job discussion, you can only drink coffee. The cheapest coffee there costs around $8, some coffee beverages cost over $30! Usually, you can't take pictures inside the shop but this time Nifty portal Z got an interview! They said that the taste of the coffee is sooooooooo different: clear, smooth, and strong, etc. Usually I hate restaurants or shops that don't give top priority to customer service (We have such ramen shops sometimes!), but I want to taste their coffee.

I loved the type ad commenting system very clean and very efficient.

The purpose of any Top 50 or Top 100 is more to stimulate debate and raise awareness than to establish some canon.

I liked Cagliostro a lot. I would have put Howl's Moving Castle and Laputa The Flying Island on the list too.

We have Indian chicken curry pizza toppings here in the UK, they are very popular too. I'd like to try the Nagoya special.

Thanks for always writing this blog. I always enjoy your entries. I think you enjoy some of the same things as I do, so it's like reading a letter from a friend when I read your blog! :) I want to go to that coffee shop in Ueno next time I visit Tokyo.
