Cool urinal


At first I thought this Japanese restaurant was just getting rid of their old ice, but then I noticed all the urinals there were full of ice cubes. Now why...? Probably better not to ask.

Sassy mushroom


Continuing my fascination with Asian food packaging logos, I present this mushroom. How you can make a mushroom look sassy, I have no idea, but it was done artfully here.

Great advertising


Cutaway of the wall to see the pipes. Elephant brand pipes. Because who wouldn't want an elephant in the walls of their house?

Brilliant advertising. I still remember these blue elephant pipes whenever I see PVC tubes around town.

What's that?




It's a... baby gecko!

Japanese food - Wasabi-An







Went to a Japanese restaurant we hadn't tried before the other night. It was fabulous! They only spoke Japanese and Thai, and the menu was only in Japanese and Thai. But we found our way to some great seaweed salad, some of the best sashimi we've ever had, some of the best deep fried squid we've ever had, and some RAW BEEF.

(the raw beef was devine. I know it breaks all the rules to eat it, but it was really wonderful. If we get some crazy parasites as a result, it was still totally worth it)
