And Kimidai was my favorite.
Joyce WriceGUEST
And so when I went to Japan to be with my family, and I have an uncle in Tokyo, Mitaka, they took me to like Omakase, really top spot.
Joyce WriceGUEST
So when they asked, asked me what I wanted and I said, all these things, they were like, how the fuck do you know that? Yeah.
Eddie HuangHOST
Yeah.
Paul DenhoedGUEST
I am...
Paul DenhoedGUEST
I'm in Tokyo, in, uh, Mitaka, uh, City, which is on the west side of Tokyo, and, uh, I've been, uh, living here, um...
Paul DenhoedGUEST
Well, I've been living in Japan for, uh, about 25 years now and, uh, came here originally to, uh, research Japanese paper making in, if I'm not mistaken, I think it was 2001, and that was a two-year scholarship, uh, given by the Japanese, uh, Ministry of Education.
Paul DenhoedGUEST
And I, uh, I fully expected that, but when I was done with my two years, that I would pack up and head back and figure out what I was gonna do next.
Tyler CahillHOST
Still not the best pass that I've ever had.
Tyler CahillHOST
Another thing I did for me, which was fucking sick, was you go to a suburb called Mitaka and they have the Studio Ghibli Museum.
Tyler CahillHOST
And I don't know if you know what Studio Ghibli is, but it's like Japan's Disney Pixar.
Tyler CahillHOST
They do the movies, Howl's Moving Castle, Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke.
