The real sharks

September 2, 2008

I read today that sharks have killed 81 people in the last 30 years. I also happen to know that people kill an estimated 100 million sharks a year. And then they say that sharks are dangerous.

Al Ain – Kannai
Looking on the Net for info about My Lebanon (see review on DOiT), I also found another Lebanese restaurant in Kannai, within the Yokohama metropolitan area, possibly an alternative to My Lebanon prices and Sindbad’s mediocrities (for info about Sindbad, see my main site).

German restaurants: Kabinett

January 7, 2006

Some time ago I ate at Kabinett, a German restaurant hidden in a small Akihabara alley.
The idea of eating anything in Akihabara sounds to me like eating computer keyboards in a sandwich, but the place in the end was quite good.
It really is a place specializing in white wine, but the food is also fine. The eisbein (boiled pork knuckle: better than it sounds) was enjoyable and so were the other traditional German dishes we had.
Kabinett has a site.
