Eels

Hello. Yesterday we went to a lovely eel restaurant with a pair of teachers from a neighbouring school-and very lovely they were too. We had the speciality which is rice with panfried eel in a kind of soy sauce (amusingly soy sauce is called show-you in Japanese). It came with pickles and clear soup and a little dish of eel calimari with pepper and lemon. It was all very tasty and we drank green tea with it. The eel itself is chopped up so looks like little fish fillets and has teh same kind of texture and flavour as a white fish. I liked it-it was pretty easy food really for Japan.
Afterwards we came back here and had a brilliant chocolate mousse cake from the bakery next to or school. Most cake seems to involve mousse here and I like it better than icing.
Off to play my new guitar now!
