Tonight I met up with Amy and hit up Osaka to try one of these pineapple fried rice dishes. Not exactly a dish, they bring the meal to you in a halved pineapple! Not bad but it was a bit bland to my taste. The curry on their Thai menu is very good though. The novelty of the halved pineapple sucked me in! The place was really busy and our table seemed like it was in the center of the room. The hustle and bustle really got me anxiety ridden. Most of the time I have no problem with a room full of people, other times like tonight when seated in the center of a busy room it feels like the walls are closing in on me. Perhaps it's that it has been a trying week but I'm also not fond of large, noisy crowds of people. Well, unless it's a concert, which is a bit dualistic.. I guess the experience really has to be worth it to deal with discomfort. We finished our meals and headed out to grab a coffee and look for something to shoot, it was getting late. We hit up a couple locations then I admit, this photo was taken at ten after midnight, but I liked it.. Just some light trails, nothing big, it was cold as heck. Later we chatted it up and two hours got behind us, iced coffees are good ;)
