showamaru

Saturday night, we met up with Greg who is visiting with his mom.

Dinner was at a small izakaya, Showamaru.

The fish comes fresh from Wakayama.

There was sashimi.

Tako (octopus)

And a fisherman's bowl (shoyuzuke (fish soaked in some shoyu, mirin)) on top of rice with katsuoboshi (shaved bonito) and chirimen (whitebait).

After dinner, his mom went back to hotel and we went to karaoke for a bit.

It had been ages since I've been. At least no one in our party smokes...Satoshi and Greg had fun taking turns singing.

It was nice meeting up, hope he and his mom enjoy the rest of their trip.
