Ate out in the city tonight at the much hyped and overly praised Japanese restaurant "Wagaya".

Wished I didn't.

I just wanted to see what the hype was about and after missing out on trying it out with Ellie and Hellen on Friday night, I thought I would treat myself to some truly authentic and original Japanese dishes today with my boyfriend.

After the novelty of the segregated and private dining "rooms" of Wagaya and the interactive touchscreen menu (not so cool- i mean there's a restaurant with the SAME style of menu inside Haymarket with better food) wore off, I have got to say that Wagaya is the WORST Japanese restaurant I have EVER, EVER, EVEEERR been too. The place wasn't even airconditioned which required me and him to fan ourselves with the menu while placing our order and waiting for our food to arrive.

My boyfriend always said to me
"What is the point of going to a prestigious restaurant which serves exotic fine food but in thumbnail portions when all I want to do after the $300 meal is run over to the nearest maccas and gorge myself silly on 2 sets of Big Mac meals?"

I abso-fucking-lutely agree...Wagaya may not be classified as "fine dining" but the food was slightly overpriced for what it is. Another imitation Japanese restaurant run by Chinese/Korean and probably owned by Chinese/Korean boss too...

Three microscopic lamb cutlets for 11.50. A glass of coke filled to the brim with ice 3.50. Large salad full of iceberg lettuce (cheapshit lettuce can buy from supermarket for 99c) 7.50. Wagayu beef skewers about 5cm long- 11.50. Onigiri- 7.50.

Sooo it's not a $300 meal, maybe I'm miserly but I didn't think it was a good square meal- no not that i didn't think. It really wasn't. For a fraction of the price, I might not have the ambience but (who the fuck buys ambience anyway?) I would have had an awesome meal from another japanese restaurant and walked away full, satisifed and happy...

Oh and I would have tipped.

Wagaya was dogshit, pigshit, pigeonshit, bullshit, catshit, elephantshit, whatevershit...but point being is that WAGAYA WAS, IS AND STILL IS SHIT.

SHITEOUS...beyond shit. fucking shit.

Which is why I didn't leave any coinage behind and on top of that one of the waitress's tried to CHARGE us AGAIN before we left!...FUCK OFF...I'm NEVER, EVER going there again.

I'm not giving tips just because the restaurant looked nice. The owner can suck my imaginary dick....

Just before we left, my boyfriend joked that he was going to say he was a food reviewer for Choice magazine and that he wasn't satisfied with the calibre of food present at this restaurant therefore bad ratings...which reminded me of a certain somebody who thinks they are just that.

A food reviewer for choice magazine. lol..which is far from what they are.

Soo...after that we left to go to Y2K cuz I was still starving after only snacking on one and a half onigiri and a mouthful of disgusting iceberg lettuce.

I ordered an "asian delight parfait" which consists of durian/jackfruit icecream topped with whipcream and two chocolate swirls. Wayne ordered a boring yet safe vanilla caramel parfait.

Before he tucked into his I decided to let him have a taste of my durian icecream.

After all the smell of the Durian fruit is a running joke between westerners and asians. Asians declare that at first it might smell bad but as you get used to it the aroma of the durian is in actual fact quite sweet.

I bet Wayne begged to differ.

One taste and he was gagging...with tear filled eyes he managed to choke out "what the fuck is that?"

I shrugged and said casually "It's the durian- remember I told you about it"

"get that thing the fuck away from me," he yelled, still gagging and scoffing in mouthfuls of his own dessert while looking at me in disgust.

"First time?" I laughed while savouring the sweet taste of the durian in my mouth. "You know it's an asian delicacy. Very expensive."

"Yeah and so is dog, snake and monkey brains..." Wayne muttered under his breathe.

I laughed and continued eating my dessert while he tried in vain to get the taste out of his mouth which was all in vain as everyone knows how potent the actual SMELL of the fruit is. And it wasn't even the fruit but just the icecream and he couldn't stand it already.

While driving back home, he started complaining and saying that he could still smell the durian on me although I had eaten it almost half an hour before hand. He said, "When you get home, you are going to brush your teeth immediately then burn the clothes you are wearing" to which I replied. "Tommorrow I am going to buy a whole durian. I love it!"

He winced "Well don't open that shit inside the house then." he declared while rattling off what he thought the durian smelt like to him.

READER BE WARNED!- images below may cause vomitting

"Drinking off-milk for a week then shitting that off-milk out and blending that shit with another batch of off-milk"

"Really off-watermelon which has started to turn alcoholic in the fridge after being in there for about a year"

"A fresh pile of Rotor's shit.(Rotor is our dog- she doesn't epic shits) "

"A week old sandwich which has fur on it and has started to produce slime"

"Rotting meat with maggots in it."

I then turned to him after he had stopped rambling and said.."Would you rather eat Rotor's shit (Rotor is our dog) than eat Durian then?"

He looked perplexed..."How big?"

I made out the size of my palm and he gagged from reflex, after thinking about it for a while he decided it was safer to eat dog shit than eat durian again.

How about chicken feet? (which he hates)

He said he would rather eat a bowl of chicken feet than durian.

He would rather eat sheep eyes than durian.

He would eat ANYTHING but...durian.

So Tomorrow I am going to buy a BIG BIG durian and eat it throughout the week...

<3<3

You Bastards!

Just kidding...Excuse my absence but I have been an extremely lazy shit and trying desperately to think of excuses as to why I haven't been blogging and thought I would try and worm my way out of it by pretending I got hacked.

I'm sure there are some people out there whos hearts would have skipped a beat with joy after reading the title of this post but ----HAHA sucked in...I didn't get hacked so no need to get your hopes up...losers.

I assure you that everything is fine. I haven't died from swine flu, dropped off the face off the earth, been eaten alive by rats or gorged myself on fat steaks to death. No....I have just been horrendously lazy and un-motivated. However, spare it. I am back!

So what exceedingly boring things have plagued me since I last blogged? Haha...my life is not all it's cracked up to be. I went to see a psychic and apparently I will be working in the games industry. Like NO shit, I already am. But apparently I step it up and am meant to move to the US for a good 10 years when I'm 24-25.

HAHA! Finally I get to see Grand Theft Auto "Liberty City" as it is. I bet I can make my way around just by playing the game. Woohooo! But I'm not going to blog about the shit he said which I didn't like because that bit of the predictions was all bullshit.

Went for a "coffee" with Helen to catch up after her trip to China, then took her home and cooked spag bol for her. Then drove her back to her house She lives on one side of Sydney and me, the other but it was fun catching up. Felt like the old times at the Hornsby library, except didn't have the despicable doom and gloom looming above our head called the HSC. 2007, didn't seem so long ago but so much has happened since then.

Anyway in a week and a bit I'm off to Mebourne for 4 days. How Excite-me....not really.

Found out about these things that asian girls are obsessing over called Circle lenses, along with it found out what the term "Ulzzang" or someshit means. "Best face" in korean, apparently ugly fucks with slit eyes wear these contact lenses and voila, they look like the living dead (Grudge girl). Apparently it is meant to make your eyes look doll eyed and me and Helen were googling pictures of it..hahah...wtf make your eyes look all dead and scary. "Like a Demon" quote Helen. lmfao....the things asian girls would do to make chihuahua eyes...haha. (bet that somebody I don't like with the man eyes will start wearing these- lol)

aiiyah........soo unnatural and creepy. Uncanny resemblence to Grudge girl....*shivers*

Then me and Helen had a luvo competition to see who could open their eyes bigger and she won. Then we had a competition to see who could open their mouth bigger and she won. Longer tongue, she won. Bigger cheesy grin-she won. Bigger smile- she won. WTFTOMATO!?! The only thing I won was bigger trout pout because I can make my top lip touch my nose. lmfao...
