Nice old school action with the rickshaw, huh? I'm sure it has a certain romance to it, especially for the recently married couple in the photo.

I'm sure you have a ton of photos so I understand it must be a hassle to upload them.

Yes, they shoot the yakitori skewers as arrows into your car with a bow...as you drive by...it's all very fast and convenient. :beaten:

Inspired by yabusame archery of course...you know how the Japanese love tradition.

This example of "latte art" won first prize for Asuka Yoshimoto [below] at a competition arranged by Blenz Coffee to decide who should represent Japan in the company's International Latte Art Competition which will take place in Canada later this year. Judges, including North American latte art champion Layla Osberg, gave the design a score of 9.75 out of a maximum 10. Yoshimoto, who works at the Shibuya branch of Double Tall Cafe also picked up a cash prize of 100,000 yen along with the invitation to Canada.

Yup...Best Jeanist comes to mind ;) But it does require some skill to doodle on the surface of a Latte....looks like he drew a Canadian Maple leaf, but that's just my guess.

I'm waiting for someone to sketch the Mona Lisa on a latte... That'll legitimize the sport. :beaten:
