Chapter 51: 'Tenchi In Tokyo'
"Did you enjoy your meal sir?" The stunning brunette behind the lunch counter asked. "Not really," Tenchi thought, smiling politely, wondering if he should just come right out and say... "I'm accustom to larger portions and the sauce you use for your teriyaki eel is substandard at best!" Instead he simply nodded and smiled. After all Washu's seafood supply plus Sasami's cooking no doubt had him spoiled rotten!
"And here's your change!" She intoned, pleasantly if mechanically, "Please come again!"
Sighing Tenchi began making his way out almost running into a pair of gentlemen on their way in.
"So my friend?" One of them was saying as he half-led his obviously foreign born companion. "This is your first experience with true Japanese cuisine?"
"Heck no!" his companion answered with a strange accent even for someone speaking the kings English. "They just open this place called the 'Hanoi Grill' last month in Columbia."
"Uh." Tenchi muttered, still having no luck what so ever with the mans point of origin. 'American' of that much he was sure. In spite of having been off planet on a few occasions, it still didn't make Tenchi 'well traveled' enough in the terrestrial sense to lock in the man dialect. Clearly he wasn't the only one who's knowledge of other lands could use a bit of broadening, considering that 'Hanoi' was in Korea!
"Well then!" The Japanese man who had first spoken continued, with a conspicuously strained smile. "This will be quite an experience for you I'm sure!"
