People in Japan are nuts! They make golf reservations to play way way way in advance. Months in advance at times. So when it comes to the day of playing, they are all excited about going. Doesn't matter what the weather is.... Geeez.... So when your playing with customers that are crazy about going, you can't cancel, even if its frickin 9 degrees and raining....So frickin cold. For an ex-Californian its almost unthinkable to play in such weather.

Poker
We have a regular Poker game on Sundays at the Tokyo American Club (best hamburgers in Tokyo, you don't know how difficult it is to find a good burger in Japan). Its a game amongst friends and we play basically to shoot the shit and chill. http://www.tokyoamericanclub.org/

Grubbin
I went to eat at this restaurant called Morimoto. Its a short walk from Roppongi Hills I've never been there so it was nice to check out a new restaurant. The Toro tartar was awesome! They also had an item called Hibachi-Cauda. I often make Bauna Cauda at home which is a Anchove/Garlic dip for veggies and bread. So I was curious to see what the Hibachi (firepot) was for. Turn out its to keep the dip warm without letting it boil. Great technique, cuz normally you use candles or a fondue pot which over boils the dip to the point where the olive-oil rises to the top.
