Dinner at Bennihana's was a blast! The "japanese" food was prepared right at our table teppanyaki style with dazzling effects by chefs who slide, dice and cook your order - while juggling knives and flipping food in the air. Was introduced to Sake bombers - you drop little "shots" of warm sake (japanese rice wine) into half a glass of Japanese beer - and then tip the glass over into your mouth! It doesn't take many to lose count…

Also tried Afrikando, a tiny Senegalese restaurant in the downtown area. Food was interesting - lots of cabbage, cassava and spices, but a little different than what we've been used to. I guess it's an acquired taste :)
