Ok, I've only gotten to your posts about Teppan Edo, but thought I'd better reply now before I forget what I want to say!
We love that restaurant! So good - esp. the steak. We haven't gone in awhile because I think it's definitely more fun if you're there with a bigger group.
Green Tea martini - never tried that. I'll put it on the list. I've gotten their Sake Martini - sake and gin and I don't think anything else. YIKES!!! That drink will grow hair on your chest!
Had to laugh at your chef Tom. We have a chinese restaurant by us that we go to all the time. It's so good and we often get the same waiter. He's such a nice guy, speaks broken english. I finally asked his name - he tells me Tommy! Not what I was expecting!
if you're at teppan edo then you're caught up! we loved teppan edo, too! i don't think that green tea martini had much but alcohol in it, either! it was really strong. but gin and saki? holy cow!
Great update! That Luke is just too cute.
thanks! yep, he's a cutie.
Aww you all look like you had a blast at Teppan Edo. My DH would love to go there..we have not yet. He would love the sake flight.
it's a really great place - maybe you can try it next time!
Well, I wasn't exactly at 'the bachelor party' but it went on into the next morning and lets just say I saw what was left of him, semi passed out and mumbling nonsense that he was soo sorry....

I think he slept until the next day.

At least it was the weekend before our wedding.

In hindsight, I should have seen it as a sign our marriage was doomed.
I've never touched the stuff because of that day.
gotcha! are you guys still together? not to be nosey - just curious. since you said your marriage was doomed and you're laughing about it, i figured it wasn't a sore subject!

i totally understand about not touching the stuff. i've gotten sick twice from drinking - once on boone's farm strawberry hill and once from a thing called, "call a cab" from wet willie's in savannah. the call a cab was a red, fruity frozen drink made with pure grain alcohol. that stuff will sneak up on you - i only had 2 and i was sick! anyway, i won't go near either one of those now! just brings back the bad memroies and nausea.
Absolutely, it was a monorail! We thought exactly the same thing when we ate there!
i agree!
Hi Dawn!
I am all caught up now, great report! I think it is great that you spend the trip with your friends and their son. Luke is such a cute little boy and I love all the pics!
thanks! and thanks so much for reading. happy to have you here.
great update and pics.
we ate at Tokyo Dining but walked by there and it looked fun.
it was a blast! i think if you go back with biff's family you should go there - it's more fun with lots of people.
i also say a monorial, we really want to go there on our next trip in 2010, just have to talk teh parents into it, they dont like to spend alot of time eating at restraunts when we are in the park.
but i will try and see i can convince them to do it...they have never eaten at a place like that, i have and loved it.
oh, the food at disney is half the fun for me! but i love to eat. i'm sure they'd like it - it's not all that exotic or anything.
Hi. I just started your report. I am on the beginning of page 5 where you have donned your Disney ponchos and are heading out into the rain to Epcot.
We just returned from our third Disney Christmas and this was the first we didn't stop at the Boardwalk. Darn! The Donald and Daisy gingerbread display is too cute. Your pictures of the Beach club display are much better than mine.
Looking forward to reading the rest of your report. Thanks for taking us along with you.
Becky
hi! thanks for reading! yeah, the donald and daisy gingerbread thing was really cute!
Hi punkin413, i just found your trip report today. Love what I've read so far, and I loved the 2008 year in review! Waiting for more. Love all the pictures too!
thanks for joining in! and thanks for your sweet compliments.
All I'm gonna say about your last update...there's 99.99999999% nice and polite Japanese.....and then there's me....
The food looks good....I haven't eaten today yet.....
it was like afternoon when you wrote that.....why hadn't you eaten? you silly boy - you need your nutrition! ray's the same way - he won't eat for hours and i don't get it. i have to have like 4 meals a day or i get grumpy!
anyway, yes, all those peeps were very nice and polite. and then there's you. but we love you anyway!
You look so thrilled in that picture where you're holding the green tea martini

I love green tea but I find that in green tea flavored "things" the green tea flavor seems to disappear....like green tea ice cream tastes like frozen milk

I also once made muffins from a green tea muffin mix and they were vile!
Right now I would do just about anything to have a dish of Tom's freshly prepared delights in front of me! Everything looks so good. Much more delicious than the miso soup in a box that I had for lunch today.
At least I only have...2 MONTHS til I go back!
PS: That monorail plate - I WANT. You didn't happen to accidentally drop it in your purse after he was done eating did you?

OK, I would never do that - but I would want to!
i agree about green tea flavored things. i got the green tea plum wine slushie in china once and all i tasted the plum wine - yuck! sounds like your BF needs to take you to eat hibachi sometime soon.

nope, not ganking the monorail plate here. although anna's purse is so big we probably could've. actually, i don't think we had any purses there - only our backpacks which were filled to the brim!
I'm finally here Dawn! I will catch up soon
yay!!!! i'm glad you're here! i was wondering the other day where you were!
I'm going to have to go for forks. After seeing Ray's pictures, I'm not sure I'll ever look at chopsticks the same way again!
seriously! he's such a silly boy sometimes. but he doesn't act like that often so when he does i get a kick out of it.
Subbing and trying to catch upam on Page 5!!!
thanks for coming over! i'm glad to have you here.
