My sister-in-law said that they were pretty cheap at Marukai... About $2.00 for a bag of 100 or so. :victory:

Wow. That is really cheap! I might swing by because I need a few to poke some people in the eye later on this week.

They'd probably be pretty good darts, I'd think. :mrgreen:

I'll get all Robin Hood on someone's a$$ and use them as wooden arrows. Straight from Sherwood Forest, California.

He bought the hibachi and charcoal at the Marukai store in Gardena... :)

Turns out that the only thing he used the hibachi for was for the kurobuta belly yakitori... The chicken and kalbi beef were cooked on his outdoor gas grill.

Thanks for the info! Must have been delicious!!! :D

Yeah! I posted these pics with you in mind because I remember you said you wanted to eat at the location over in your neck of the woods. Last time I had a sandwich & sweet potato fries; obviously the salad is a bit lighter and probably healthier over all. It tasted good. I would go back again to try some of the numerous other items on their menu.

Thanks! I have a friend who is a vegetarian (Buddhist). Maybe she'll enjoy this place, too. We occasionally go to a Chinese vegetarian place which serves Chinese dishes with the "fake" beef, fish and chicken. It's pretty good.

You're welcome. :)

Speaking of Buddhist vegetarians...there is a Japanese vegetarian restaurant in the Little Tokyo Galleria (3rd & Alameda) called Shojin. I went once...it was pretty good.

If you by any chance noticed the title of this thread, this is the Food thread not the drink thread. :P

Uh, aren't we taking things a little too far with the bacon?

Yup. Bacon doesn't hold up well to road wear unlike in a turkey sandwich. :beaten:
