Back to the castle
Japan Samurai
    I walked up to a door which looked like a Japanese temple. I opened it to find a room decorated in Japanese decor; I felt like I was in Japan. I walked in not sure what to expect. A Japanese girl in a kimono walked up to me and asked if she could seat me and my friends. It was my birthday, and, as a treat, my friends took my to the Japan Samurai
����������� We sat down at a big grill and the friendly waiter took our orders. My friends and I were talking and having a great time, when a man in a chef's outfit walked up to us with a cart of food. He introduced himself. However, I could not really understand anything he said for his accent was very strong. I am pretty sure he could speak good English, but he told jokes, in sure "Engrish" as my friends would call it, and my friends and I smiled and laughed politely.
����������� He started cooking the food, and he was amazing! His hands were fast as lightning, and the sound of the clanking from his spatula and knife sounded like thunder. He started doing tricks, and explained how to do them. I was in awe of his skill. He was showing me each step because it was my birthday; and as my present he let my friends and I try some of the tricks. I walked behind the grill, and the chief told to spin an egg, slipped the spatula under it, and tossed it in the air, then all I needed to do was catch the egg on the side of spatula keeping the egg on it, but letting the insides slip out on the grill. I spun the egg and tossed it up; as it was falling my friends were watching in anticipation as the egg was coming back down. I felt as if the world around me had slowed down. I placed the spatula right where I knew the egg would hit and I waited; however, my guess would be that a strong gust of wind came, because somehow the egg was nowhere near my well- placed spatula. My friend tried the same trick, and accidentally ended up hurling his egg into a full sauce bowl getting it all over me and everything around me. After this the chef stopped letting us try the tricks.
����������� The food he made was amazing. I couldn't get enough of the tender and well seasoned shrimp. There was also mouth watering chicken, a lot of fried rice, sushi, and some vegetable. He made a lot of food, and I ate till I couldn't eat anymore, yet there was still had a nice amount left. I can't tell you how much it cost my friends to treat me, but I think the most entr�e's cost about $10-$15. I have to say if you want a show and a good meal, Japan Samurai would be the place to go. Other people than I like to eat at the Japan Samurai restaurant. "Japan Samurai is a great place to take friends and family for special occasions. Few restaurants offer such good food and free entertainment at the same time." (Van Mullekom) �If you haven't been there yet you should at least try it once.
