Farewell Drink

I'm going back to Erlangen tomorrow, so I thought I'll do a last night walk in the vicinity of Picadilly Circus. I also took some pictures around the area.

After some time I met up with Wil, then Ronnie joined us, for dinner in Kulu Kulu Sushi, a Japanese restaurant in Brewer Street. It's one of those conveyor belt places where coded plates of sushi continuously go around in a conveyor belt and you just grab whichever pleases you. I wonder why they haven't done this with dim sum? Not being able to converse in Cantonese, I am always reduced to chasing after those dim-sum-trolley-pushing-women to see what sort of goodies they have to offer. Maybe a transparent steaming basket need to be invented, because they need to be kept in such baskets to keep them warm, while they also need to be seen so diners know what they're grabbing. Am sure eventually someone will actually do it.

After dinner, we decided to go for a drink in Village Bar, in Old Compton Street in SOHO. It might as well have been anywhere though, as the place isn't even half as crowded as it usually is, and we were just talking so much, like old friends do, about just about anything.
