From Vimby.com - Video in My Backyard is Luke from Giant Robot SF. Can you say all this like Luke? This video is a lot of fun, and they should do one in LA and NYC. After the first minute, I wondered what Luke would say, but he nailed it. Good job, Luke in handling that mic.

Ramen. In one moment, anyone would know that this one spot is better than what you can get in America.

The meal starts off with vegetables and more, and with the leftover broth you can choose rice or noodles. We opted for noodles.

We had dinner as part of a year end chill out celebration. It seems like everyone does this. He's getting ready for Komiket which is in a few days where he sells a ton of his new book. We ate at an awesome Chinese place in...
