OK, Here we go..... I think it only fair to start with this photo as this trip to Tokyo, and the inspiration of these two guys with me in the photo, really kicked off my interest in exploring food, photographing said eats, and sharing/explaining my impressions of my experiences. So, to you David Chang and Anthony Bourdain, Cheers, and thanks. As I begin I think it only fair to explain a bit of what my purpose with this blog is. As you know, I do not participate in Facebook, and I wont go into why here, but I NEEDED a vehicle to communicate and connect with those in my life, both near and far. As the name implies, this will primarily be a blog about pizza. However, as this is mine, I will feel free to do and say as I damn well please, as it pleases me. So I hope to not offend or tiptoe too far over the line of appropriateness, but if I do, that's just too fucken bad. Enjoy. Pizza, food, life experiences, thoughts, feelings, rants, and more food. This is what you will find here. Please feel free to share and pass along to anyone you think might have an interest, as I hope you will as well. Sincerely yours, DVA

Unagi (Eel), Yoga (it's the name of a city), Japan (it's an amazing country)

Just a short half block or so from the Solar (CAT) office in Yoga Japan (outskirts of Tokyo) sits a fantastic little restaurant that serves only Unagi.  It used to be, and still might be, a mom-and-pop shop, with sons helping out, but this time there were 3 dudes pumping out the meals.

This is lunch

We start with tea


And we clean up, of course.  It's a standard


Salad.  Yes it was as bland as it looks



Bom bom bom BOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, one photo and I almost forgot that one!
I was so hungry that I just couldn't wait.  This one was a double, meaning that there is a layer of rice then eel then a second layer of rice topped with more eel.


Soup, obviously, or maybe not obviously..... sorry  :-)


 SOUP!

Super light and yummy.  Very veg tasting.  Perfect for washing down this heavy-ish meal.

Eat more Unagi!

Go to yoga!
DO more yoga!

Live a great life

DVA
