American squid?

Sep 19, 2008 19:27

So, tonight we went to Funky Tonky again. softlykarou ordered the shrimp spaghetti again, and I, after looking at the food display, I ordered the アメリカンハンブガ ("American hamburger"). It looked like it had onion rings, but I figured I'd either find out I liked them, since my tastes have been changing and I don't hate onions anymore, or I'd give them to softlykarou. Imagine my surprise when I found out that they were squid rings. I felt a lot better, since I love squid--I was just a bit surprised, since squid rings aren't exactly American. :-p

When I went up to the counter, the woman there (either owner or co-owner) asked me if it was okay, and when I said it was delicious, she said how worried she was that I wouldn't like it, since I'd probably be expecting onion rings. I told her it was fine and that I loved squid. I didn't get every word she said, but I got the context and was able to tell her it was fine. :)

Also, I just downloaded 5 megs in less than a second. Whatever else I have to say about Japan, I can't complain about network speed, even in the countryside. ^_^
