Chocolate Buddha

Buddha is such an easy-going deity. Would a cafe called Sweet Jesus or Vanilla Vishnu work? Maybe, if it did food as well as this Fed Square long-player. Stake some space at a communal table and work through a menu stacked with Japanese staples (sushi, tempura, donburi), and eating tips. Avoid bloated noodles by scoffing your ramen first, then slurping the chuka miso broth, made from dashi, fresh fish and veg. Or do things your way: dip your sushi in the sweet-vinegared sunomomo salad, or shake the sesame seeds from your yakitori skewers over the hot mustard mayo around your sizzling steak (yaki hireniku). Sacrilicious.
