Sushi House, Banff - Sushi Train Conveyor Belt
This little restaurant has a similar concept to the Sakae Sushi restaurants in Singapore - sushi on a conveyor belt! The only difference is that this restaurant actually uses a real model train to bring the sushi round the conveyor belt for you hahaha. When you see something you like or would want to try, just lift the plate off the belt and tuck in!
My favourite Edamame beans :)
There's the train for ya!
There's also a sushi chef behind the bar for you to watch if you're interested lol
At the end, they will count the number of plates you've had - if i'm not wrong, different coloured plates have different costs...

Yamapi and Ryou leave NEWS
Well, it's official... news (pun intended) spreads fast nowadays, what with facebook and twitter. I woke up this morning (Canada time) and my fellow Johnnys (Arashi) fan posted on my facebook wall that NEWS has been reduced to 4 members?!
So i went to check my twitter feed, and most of the JE or NEWS pages that I follow all say the same thing, that it was announced through their agency... please see the link of their profile here: http://www.johnnys-net.jp/j/artists/news/prof/prof.html (if it still shows 6 members, please refresh your page) ... the truth just hits you in the face *WHAM BAM SLAM* Please keep all your singles/albums/videos/magazines/music etc of the 6 members, as you won't get them anymore, treasure them!!
So people, and fellow grieving-but-saw-something-like-this-coming NEWS fans, it is official - Yamashita Tomohisa and Nishikido Ryo have left NEWS, and the remaining 4 members TegoMass and KoyaShige will continue on as a group. Hmmmm, maybe now each of them can take one cardinal each - North East West South hahaha
I agree with a fan article that i read, that even though the 2 most popular members have left, the remaining 4 can hold their own too (so i'm not worried about that). But another thing that the fan mentioned is that for this to be announced now, when TegoMass activities have only just started ... bad timing. so my sis and i were thinking maybe KoyaShige will appear at one of the TegoMass concerts near the end to announce their next NEW NEWS single...
So it looks like we're poised to see the NEW NEWS at the start of the new year 2012. At least now we can have magazine photoshoots of the 4 of them without the use of photoshop. I must admit that I am sad that we would never see the 6 members together again, but we must always learn to think positive!! This means that there would be more time for NEWS activities, more singles, more concerts etc etc. Even though there would still be TegoMass activities, but as a TegoMass fan, i know that their activities only lasts for a maximum of 4 months. Which means EIGHT solid months of new NEWS (compared to no NEWS at all this whole year) yeahhhhhhh!! And because these 4 members are so close, i mean they spend time together in private (what with crashing Shige's place) - so the camaraderie backstage, the MC time, and all their interactions would be funny and interesting!!
I am looking forward to the new NEWS, i will still support them, and i wish them all the best!! I wish Ryou all the best too as he continues with Kanjani8, and please continue acting awesome dramas! As for Pi, all the best at his solo act too. But my full support will be for the 4 members of the new NEWS!!! I'm sure that the NEWS fandom will be shaken up as the RyoPi fans leave, but TegoMassKoyaShige ganbatte!!! CLAW YOUR WAY UP!! BE SUPER POPULAR!!! WHETHER IN JAPAN OR INTERNATIONALLY!! SHOCK EVERYONE!! YOU CAN DO IT!!
I SUPPORT YOU!!
我会永远支持你!!!
ずっと応援してます！

TegoMass new album!!
Again, food trail has been shoved aside hahaha
As you all know, TegoMass would be releasing their new album テゴマスのまほう (the magic of tegomass perhaps??) - which i so totally agree, because the voices and harmonies of TegoMass = magic!!!
I'm really looking forward to their album! i'm sure there would be energetic sounding tracks and also awesome ballads (their specialty). And i wonder what the PV for 魔法のメロディ (the magic of melody perhaps?) would be like!!! can't wait!!
These are the tracks for the upcoming album (taken from http://tower.jp/article/news/81989)
1. 魔法のメロディ
2. 花火
3. 夕焼けと恋と自転車
4. 雪だるま
5. わすれもの
6. 七夕祭り
7. Over Drive
8. タイトル未定
9. 猟奇的ハニー
10. ユメタビビト
11. 青いベンチ
12. ら・ら・桜 ※Normal edition
13. ただいま、おかえり ※Normal edition
14. アイノナカデ ※Normal Edition
【】※Limited edition
・“魔法のメロディ” Music Clip & Making
・Special Interview
Well basically its the usual Johnny's, two versions - one with the section of the PV and interview, and the other with extra bonus tracks. Personally, i would prefer the extra bonus tracks for their lovely voices. YEAH!!
The album will be released on October 19th, so please go get it everyone!! support them!!
Of course, with the release of a TegoMass album and their 3rd live concert tour - it means that there would be no NEWS activities for the rest of the year ... which translates into no NEWS activities at all for the year of 2011!!!
There have been many "we want NEWS" / "bring back NEWS" etc etc activities going on around the world, and after Massu's comment in the latest magazine interview - we know that our voices are being heard. But i think the most impressive activity would be the mass purchase of 星をめざして from September 13th - 16th (i believe this was created by the Japanese fans). An absolutely AWESOME idea i must say. I heard that 星をめざして is now the number #1 single on CD Japan, all thats left is the Oricon charts!! gosh this is so exciting!!
i'm sure that this news would definitely catch the attention of NEWS and hopefully the important decision-making people in Johnny's Entertainment. Please let there be more NEWS activities!!
i mean look to the right - poor NEWS has been silent for too long!!
