Uncle Roger's Notebooks of Daily Life

Friday, May 26, 2006

If you're anywhere near Daly City, California, and have a hankerin' for some damn fine Japanese food, I highly recommend Tani's Kitchen in the Westlake shopping center.

It's small and there's almost always a wait, but it's worth it. The restaurant seats about 9-10 with another four or five at the counter. They serve sushi (suh-shi as Jared calls it) as well as donburis and such. My favorite is the Japanese curry with tonkatsu (although, one of these days I'm going to have to try their tonkatsu by itself.) Rachel always gets a chicken teriyaki donburi and a cucumber roll. I'm not a big fan of sushi, so I can't really comment on that, but others have told me they're good.

The folks that run it are really nice and it's great fun to watch the cook work his magic. It's inexpensive, but damn good. Give it a try and tell 'em Jared's dad sent you.

Journal Description

My life is, to me, ripe with frequent challenges, occasional successes, spontaneous laughter, adequate tears, and enough *life* to last me a lifetime. To you, however, it surely seems most pedestrian. And therefore, I recycle the name I used previously and call this my Notebooks of Daily Life. Daily, because it's everyday in nature, ordinary. These conglomeration of events that are my life are of interest to me because I live it, perhaps mildly so to those who are touched by it, and could only be of perverse, morbid curiosity to anyone else. Yet, I offer them here nonetheless. Make of them what you will, and perhaps you can learn from my mistakes.
