I remembered last year's Christmas, it was a quiet one. I miscalculated that Ueno Park or Senso-ji Temple would be open for Christmas, but I was wrong. It was a peaceful but somewhat melancholic experience.
I kinda assumed that the same would happen this year. Perhaps I would just head off to one of the cinemas and watch AVATAR alone, but something else came up, and all of a sudden, I found myself at a Yakiniku restaurant called Buchi, in Shibuya.
... with An-chan (KINGYO production assistant, 3PM supporting actress), and Kong (who was celebrating the completion of his new short film that starred KINGYO main actress Luchino Fujisaki, and shot by KINGYO cinematographer Josha as well).
And Liu Jing (assistant producer of THE WHITE FLOWER).
Yakiniku, for the uninitiated, means 'grilled meat' in Japanese.
We order raw stuff for grilling.
Although I've been to numerous Korean BBQ restaurants in Japan since I've moved to Tokyo, I think this might actually be the first time I was in a Yakiniku restaurant!
I like it most when things burst into flames.
MOOOOOEEEEERUUUUU!

Occasionally we have to put some ice cubes to cool things down.
Then there were more inferno.

We were stuffed.
25th of December, 2009. I was in a Yakiniku restaurant, with three of my friends.
I don't celebrate Christmas. But it was a great meal.
There was dessert.
Yes. Merry Christmas.
