You'll tire of that after a week and want to desperately live in a dystopian metropolis. Somewhere like LA in 2019.

Okay, back to the topic.
My plan is the following:
- Shimonoseki (the ferry from Korea)
- Hiroshima
- Miyajima
- Kyoto + Nara + (maybe) Osaka ... although there isn't much to see in Osaka apparently
- Tokyo

+ maybe the Himeji medieval castle too, if I have enough time.

Anyting good that I'm missing out in my plan?

Bullshit. I'll run you some names to prove UK cuisine is the best in the world. Gordon Ramsay, Jamie Oliver, Delia Smith, Nigella Lawson, Keith Floyd. And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

The difference between UK chefs and Aussie chefs is, the UK chefs can cook.

That you can't name any of the latter?

I think this conversation shows more of your ignorance of food culture than mine.

ink. 04.19.2010 07:45 AM

sorry wait, have you ever eaten in my country?

why the hell would anyone want to go to Japan? The food is absolutely terrible, the fashion is absurd, and the entire fucking place is like some bad parody of Blade Runner or even worse, a Back the Future part II vision of the future..

blah blah woof woof I say

I've never seen any such thing in years of living here.

Also, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and what not, but an American dissing another country's cuisine is like... is like.... an American dissing another country's cuisine. :confused:

I've never been to Australia or ever had any desire to. From what I hear though, their food is pretty excellent. Pacific rim, or whatever they called it on Come Dine With Me.

Rob Instigator 04.20.2010 12:27 PM

what they do have in japan is beer vending machines on the street. In case ya need a cold one!
this one sells panties, but I doub tthey are used.
 


this one sells porn, for when you gotta catch a jack on the go!
 


This one is for games and film! They play UNO in japan!
