Ninja Restaurant

Just oppo­site train sta­tion Akasaka is the culi­nary tem­ple for Tokyo’s hun­gry ninja fans. Spe­cially dressed ninja wait­ers lead din­ers through an under­ground fan­tasy world with built-in obsta­cles. A draw­bridge to the main din­ing room opens only after a holler from the head ninja. On the menu are hun­dreds of dif­fer­ently dec­o­rated ninja dishes. Care­ful with the explod­ing snail dish, while serv­ing, the ninja waiter lets a jet of fire shoot across the dish. Also rec­om­mended is the bon­sai dessert. The mix of green tea, choco­late, ice-cream, bananas and straw­berry really looks like a minia­ture tree. After the meal a ninja magi­cian presents some con­vinc­ing tricks at your table.

Raining Tadpoles in Japan

tadpoles raining japan

As rainy sea­son approaches, Japan’s Ishikawa pre­fec­ture has been receiv­ing some unusual pre­cip­i­ta­tion — it’s been rain­ing tad­poles. Accord­ing to pre­fec­ture offi­cials, tad­poles have report­edly fallen from the sky in two sep­a­rate towns this month. Although it is not unheard of for water­spouts and strong wind to to pull small fish and ani­mals from water and drop them on land, no foul weather has been observed in the area, leav­ing res­i­dents scratch­ing their heads in won­der.
The first reported case of anom­alous tad­pole rain occurred at about 4:30 PM on June 4 in the town of Nanao. After hear­ing a strange sound out­side the Naka­jima Civic Cen­ter, wit­nesses dis­cov­ered approx­i­mately 100 dead tad­poles in a 300 square meter area in and around the park­ing lot. The tad­poles mea­sured 2 to 3 cen­time­ters long.
