Our friend, an amazing cook in town to teach some classes, made us a delicious gluten-free pasta with lobster tonight. It was incredible! Even Anko wanted a taste of the lobster. 😺

Lately, I’ve been enjoying going for walks in the neighborhood while listening to audiobooks. It’s so relaxing and fun. Highly recommend! And I also can recommend Shokz headphones. They are really comfy and safe for running/walking since they don’t block your ear canal, so you can hear traffic and other potential hazards.
I was at the car dealership getting maintenance and inspection done on Mariko’s car and I had a few minutes to check out the new cars. Wow, the wheels on this beauty were impressive! And look at that brake disc. It’s massive! So different than my Subaru.
Last night, we tried a new all-you-can-eat hot pot restaurant, Happy Lamb. They offer two tiers of meat. The regular level looked good, but the higher level was only $5 more per person and included premium cuts like wagyu beef and ribeye, so we upgraded. The selection of vegetables and seafood was also impressive, and both broths we chose were delicious, though I especially enjoyed the spicy one.
I’d definitely recommend Happy Lamb. It’s delicious, and the all-you-can-eat dinner is reasonably priced at $29/$34 per person.
