    Ginza is closing possibly as soon as this Saturday, but they'll still be in good stock on Thursday. I'm going for the toro and the best chicken katsu in the city, personally.

    Join me just after they open at 11:30 AM this Thursday, October 24. I could start slightly later (11:45 or 12) if there is more of a quorum then, or we can drop in and out as we like.

    Boy, I love to do this, but I won't know until Thursday morning. I hope I can, it all depends on the permit guys at City Hall.

    wow, that was the best chicken katsu I've ever had. Great taste & cooked perfectly.

    Great idea to suggest getting this dine in before the likely shutdown.

    Thanks Steve, I spent 8 hours dealing with the permitting process, and managed a diet coke from a machine for lunch. I was thinking of all of you with great envy.
