We all piled in and headed to Toritsu-daigaku\u2026<br \/>\nWe got there pretty quick, but against expectations it was closed\u2026 unbelievable!<br \/>\nShoppena suggested we try the &#8220;meat ankake fried rice&#8221; he recommends, so we headed to Ryozanpaku \u2605<br \/>\nOut in Sekimachi-minami, Nerima Ward.<br \/>\nWe were running down a side road past the old Toritsu-daigaku site, and the moment we passed Komazawa-dori, MJ goes &#8220;Whoa\u2014hey, something&#8217;s happening!&#8221;<br \/>\nWhat? What is it?<br \/>\nApparently only the person in the right seat could see it\u2026<br \/>\n&#8220;Oh man, an accident\u2026 something was lying on its side!&#8221;<br \/>\nWhat?! I told Ichizo to turn around, and it took 15 minutes to get back to the scene and into the detour lane with the road closed.<br \/>\nWe lined up and gawked.<br \/>\nAt first we thought it was a motorcycle accident, but it wasn&#8217;t. An old lady had been hit and wasn&#8217;t moving\u2014yeah, that was rough.<br \/>\nThe police were casually directing traffic and taking scene photos\u2026<br \/>\nIs this what the world is like?<br \/>\nAnyway, we finally made it to Ryozanpaku. Sketchy-looking place.<br \/>\nI looked at the menu and then up front, and there&#8217;s this blonde woman taking orders \u2605<br \/>\nShe&#8217;s got quite the intimidating glare \u2605<br \/>\nWe ordered &#8220;meat ankake fried rice \u00d7 4, dumplings \u00d7 3, century egg \u00d7 1&#8221; and the blonde was<br \/>\nrepeating the order back when I said &#8220;Hey, ashtray&#8221; and she stopped repeating<br \/>\nand went &#8220;clang&#8221; as she slammed down the ashtray and walked away\u2026<br \/>\nWhat kind of place is this?<br \/>\nMJ was glaring back saying &#8220;I&#8217;m not backing down~&#8221; Huh?<br \/>\nResult\u2026 the food was delicious, so \u25ce<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s go back by car again!<br \/>\nHuh?
