  Coci | Ebisu | Cafe Restaurant 

  

  Visited this cool piece from CP Organizing for dinner last Saturday for a small nomikai.

  The atmosphere: Elegant for an intimate date but casual enough for a nomikai with friends. The first floor has a bar and several counter-high tables with an cozy sofa and table beneath the stairs in the back. The second floor has more tables. I need to have a party here one day…

  
  The eats: If you’re looking for real Thai food, I wouldn’t recommend it, but they’re concept is not Thai, it’s Thai-Euro. What that translates into is great Thai-inspired food along with main entrees like the Grilled Beef Filet (1900 yen, 仔牛フィレ肉のグリル　カシスソース　じゃがいものパンナコッタ添え) I had the first I came.

  The staff: They’re busy on Saturday nights and my first impression was that they were a bit formal…at first. They become friendlier as the night goes on.

  Ura (Cafe, Ebisu) and Suna (Moroccan, Omotesando) are two more great places also by CP Organizing.

  quote of the day 

  “As soon as it meant something, it was less dangerous.”

  Roland Barthes. “Adamov and Language,” The Eiffel Tower and Other Mythologies. P55.

  How do you say that in Japanese? 日本語だとなんというだろう？

  「意味を持った途端、危険性が下がった。」

  Merry Christmas! 

  皆さん、メリークリスマス！！

  信じても、信じなくても、今日は社会を変えようとした人物の誕生日を祝う日で、今日一つのgood deed（親切な行為）をしてgood Samaritan（親切なSamar人。人情家。それもまたいい聖書の話）になりましょうね。小さなことでもいいです。僕は募集金の箱に千円を入れる。

  Merry Christmas everyone!

  Whether you believe or not, let’s not forget that today is a day when we celebrate the birth of a man who dedicated his life to changing society. So, if only for today, let’s make sure to be the good Samaritan and do a good deed. Even the smallest thing counts. I’m going to put 1000 yen into a donation box.
