I remember going to a Japanese restaurant with some of my peeps many moons ago and one of my buddies ordered some Maguro Natto...and I simply replied, "What a waste of fish."

Actually, I eat natto for breakfast 3 times a week. The funny thing is, one time I was at checkout at Mitsuwa and the guy in line behind me saw my natto. He said the trick to eating natto is to eat it with kimchi.

To me, that's like saying if you drop a bowling ball on your foot you won't notice your headache so much. :crazy:

I've never heard of eating natto with kimchi. :bleh: And I come from a family where there are some inveterate natto and kimchi consumers.

So how do you eat it? With shoyu, karashi, or both?

A few days ago I went to what is for me by now an oldie, but a goodie - Ramen Mottainai.

Gyoza & Sapporo style Miso Ramen

Neither. I mix it with some soy sauce and mustard.


I am a gaijin, ne. :P

:rofl: HAHAHA. Good one, man.

For you to eat natto on a reguar basis that is decidedly Nihonjin rashi, though. ;)

Yeah, I hadn't been there in a while myself... A buddy in Berkeley was in town, so we did some catching up there. :)

Awesome. That place is a cool spot for that. It's so casual and the environment is gregarious so you just let loose without having to be formal during dinner.

I remember a few years back when my friend in London came to visit L.A. I also took him there as well.
