The hotel restaurant is a Japanese place and it is obvious that it will become the stopping point for dinner for many of us over the next 3 weeks. It is a short walk down the hall and the food is excellent. I have not eaten a lot of Japanese food but am becoming a big fan! Umenoya serves good food.
A few of us gather for dinner and ask if we can get one of the back rooms. You have to take your shoes off and sit sort of on the floor but with lots of leg room. It's more of a communal style and it's a neat experience.
"Sure!" ......"3000 Peso limit to book the room" (that is approximately equivalent $70). "No problem!" There will be 5 of us and we want to have a taste of the sake; we can make it happen! Nick and Becky are obviously aficionados of the food so James, Carina and I are more then happy to let them order for us. One less thing for me to do since my attention will be spent trying to make my chop sticks work. The darn things just never seem to cooperate..... it might be me though!

A great meal and good company makes for a fun night! We manage to easily clear the 3000 Peso limit (we pole vaulted over the high jump bar)so everyone is happy!
