This place is cool!
They have this huge video wall with a plexiglass 3D sculpture covering the surface, which causes all sorts of interesting angular distortion. It's really tough to describe, but cool.
I'm reminded of one time in Korea when I went to eat sushi and something bad happened. I should have put this in my 25 Things from yesterday! Anyway... I went back to this special sushi place because I remembered the unagi (eel) at the buffet. They had none when I went back, so I asked the manager what happened. He was very apologetic and said he would have some specially made for me.
He asked how many eel I wanted, and I didn't know what quantity to say, since I never really knew what percentage of an unagi a typical serving of sushi was.
So I told him 3. It turns out that 3 eels is a lot of food. (is there an s on the end of eel for a multitude of eel(s)?)
He brought me a heaping serving plate full of sushi. I felt so bad for making them do so much work, that I ate as much as I could. I consumed waaaay too much and passed out later that night in my bathroom, cutting my face open on the sink and waking up the next day in a small pool of sticky blood.
But I still love eating eel.

Sushi is so good that sometimes we think we could eat mountains of it. I enjoy getting my fill, before I run out.
