The Dance of the Requiem

Legato and I went within Sakura House to pay our rent today, when on our way to Shibuya. There we were meeting up with Skip, Louise, Staffan, Nobu and four other friends of Skip, to go to some turkish themed restaurant and watch belly dancing. Unfortunately the restaurant had cancelled the entertainment, so we decided to go to some other place instead.

That other place was a german styled restaurant bar in Yoyogi, with alot of german beer and a supposedly german menu. I have gotten it confirmed from a quite reliable source, however, that they don't usually tend to eat alot of deep fried oysters and sea bass sashimi in Germany. It was good though, as were the considerably more german sausages that showed up towards the end. I can't vouch for the beer, but my Moscow Mule was surprisingly good given that they only had two cocktail drinks on the menu.

The dinner at the german place was followed by a short run at an izakaya near Yoyogi station, where I had a very good Mixed Berry Sour, as it was so eloquently called. Then we all returned north in time for those returning to Matsudo not having to worry about catching their last train. While walking home from Ikebukuro, Legato and I had quite an interesting conversation about vampires, blood drinking, and what kinds of blood would be the most exquisite.
