Chefs generally don't seem to understand this very basic thing about sushi: the seaweed should be crispy when the dish is served, and the rice at body temperature from the chef moulding it in their hands.

Cold rice and soggy seaweed are instant fails.

Fish was decent, but obviously cheap…yet this restaurant was so fully booked I had only 1 time slot available.

Maybe I've just been to Osaka too many times.

I think today will be the last day of not cooking. My massive order of supplies should arrive tonight, just after dinner.

Needed that chilli burger though. Haven't had anything actually spicy in weeks.

Sushi tonight. Let's see what the quality is like here. No excuse for bad fish, at least…

Considering I'm going through a VPN and using the box in router mode with the Asus connected to that, I guess this [beta.speedtest.net] is pretty acceptable.

Upload aside.

Funnily enough, kicking the box into router mode makes it work just fine. Let's see if I can set up the Asus on that.

Anything's better than nothing, I guess.
