last year, Nao-san brought to Hawaii some of the best almonds i’ve ever eaten. so this year, she told me where to get some and i went to get some. a little health store in Ebisu called Sunshine Juice.
these raw tamari almonds are the best! i keep it in my car and when i get hungry, just a few will fill me up and get me through another 3 hour session.
been eating the most amazing food in Japan. this yakitori place in Azabu Juban was amazing! starting off with this.
OMG, the chicken sashimi was the best.
the heart and liver was my favorite. i love it!
then the yakitori just kept on coming and coming.
more chicken guts. so tasty.
then ended it off with a raw egg over rice. want to thank my best of best friends for joining me for a wonderful private dinner.
everybody is wondering why John John Florence is suddenly losing in contests so much? analysts have their own conspiracy theories, but i know for a fact why he’s losing. it’s because of the foil! foiling throws off everything. using different muscles than surfing, using different weight distribution for front and back legs, timing is different, and most of all, you lose the hunger for surfing because foiling is way more exciting. and unless you foil, you won’t know what i’m talking about. i was almost going to call John John’s coach Ross Williams and say “hey Ross, get that kid off the foil! don’t let him ever use it until he wins the other 10 championships he’s capable of winning. than when it’s over, he can foil for the rest of his life.”
