The Eye of Patrick

I was planning to update my journal two day ago, but i never got about it.

On thursday I went to Oshou with my friend Kevin, this a resturant that serves Chinese food. It is a fairly popular chain in Japan. They have Ramen, gyoza (chinese dumplings) and other stuff. It is a great place to go and eat becuase it is so cheap. I think i have gone there atleast 10-20 times since coming to Japan. But because i have gone there so much with my friend the owner has started to recognize who we are and so a couple months ago we got a Gyoza card. This card is a reward card and I have forgotten it a few times on my trip there. So when we went Thursday I only had 5 stamps.

But i ordered two gyoza as i love that stuff and a bowl of rice. So me and kevin joked about whether i could eat two whole things. But i started and near the end i ate them all. I was amazed hehe…. but then becuase they are so amazingly good I was able to do that.

So we were checking out and paying our bills and I gave him my card and he said “chotto matte” or wait a second, so i was like sure. I thought may be i was just getting a discount as usually when i go there i pay the bill and some young worker does it and then the owner comes over and saids no no, and changes it and we end up with a lower bill. So i thought may be that was it, but nope, he was stamping my book. At first i thought i would only get two stamps as i had only ordered two orders of gyoza. But after he got to the second stamp and i thought he would quit. He kept on going and going and going, until i had the whole book filled! That was 15 stamps he gave me, so i was happy. That he went and got me the gyoza premimum club card hehe…. this means that whenever i go there i will get a discounthehe…. now that means I must keep going hehe…..
