The Good News and Bad News About Ribs

On my way to work today I looked up the website of Tony Roma’s to give Kuniko the restaurant location where we’ll meet up tonight after work. Alongside a link to the map was a link to the menu, so I couldn’t resist clicking on it and checking out what I wanted to eat that night.

Good news – they have baby back ribs. I love to eat baby back ribs, and probably they are the hardest to find here in Japan. I couldn’t wait to order a rack.

But the bad news was that baby back ribs are the only kind of ribs they sell. No beef ribs, no big pork spareribs… bummer. I guess as far as Tony Roma is concerned in Japan, a rib is a rib is a rib.

I was a little disappointed about it, but hey – life goes on. I guess life is going pretty well for me if the biggest disappointment of my week was having to eat only one kind of BBQ ribs on Friday night.

Anyway, looking forward to dinner tonight.

This weekend we both have two days off, so we’ll probably do a lot of stuff around the house. We have plenty of chores to take care of before Golden Week starts next Thursday.

Can’t wait to relax and spend some slow time with Kuniko. If the weather holds up we may even get to do some hiking to burn off some of the calories we are going to put on tonight…
