Mom and I did more window shopping in Sakae. We went into Mikimoto which is a very fancy pearl shop and drooled over all the beautiful pieces.
Some things I noticed while out today is that if you are not careful you WILL get run over by a bike! I have yet to see an older car or a car with body damage on it. Japan is a lot like Europe in the fact that they like to take their time and enjoy, the cleanliness is amazing and the service you get any where is top notch.
We rode the train in to Fushimi and ate dinner at a small Korean BBQ. Similar to fondue you cook your meat and veggies on a very hot BBQ that is placed in the middle of the table. The meat in Japan is different than any other meat I have seen, perfectly marbled and always displayed beautifully. After ordering 3 rounds of meat and veggies we were still hungry. We decided to order a garlic rice dish that a table next to us had ordered. The chef takes cloves of garlic, and rice and puts it in a heated stoneware bowl and places a raw egg in the middle. The waitress brings it to your table and stirs the sizzling rice and egg together to cook the egg. DELICIOUS!
