Specialty Item: Fried Rice

Wow, this is really cool. We've started a sort of weekly tradition at JMAC dojo where every Thursday, we do our Iaido and Jujutsu workout. We get done about 9pm and by then, we're pretty hungry so we head to Cherry Blossom Japanese restaurant after class. It's barely a block away from the dojo, so it's really convenient.
It started a few weeks ago when Tony, Don and I went there for ramen noodles and beer. The boys like Sapporo beer and they serve the large cans. Don got a hankering for fried rice and talked Tony into asking the waitress for some. But they don't serve it there. Tony, being the cheeky guy he is, kept prodding her to see if she'd give in, but she told us they couldn't do it unless we had more people. So we decided to get a bunch more people to come back the next week.
We came back and managed to talk the owner into getting the chefs to cook fried rice for us. And it was GOOD! Each week we come back, the mound of fried rice keeps getting bigger and bigger. And they're always happy to see us. We usually order a couple appetizers like California rolls, some salmon sushi, edamame on top of our usual two big plates of fried rice and about 6 or 7 large Sapporos.
They love seeing us so much they even assigned a button on their cash register that says "specialty item: fried rice $12." Can you believe that?! That REWLZ!!!

*stomach grumbles* Mmmmmmmm...now I want fried rice....Think I might make that for dinner tonight! YUM!!! I'll have to send you the recipe for how I make it. Simple, yet yummy!
LoL!!! That's funny how they assigned that button on the cash register. That's sorta how the waiters are at this one Mexican restaurant my friend and I go to all the time. This one waiter just has to look at us and knows exactly what we want. He doesn't even bother with giving us menues anymore, unless we have an unfimilar face with use. XD Hahahaha!!!
How've you been??
