Unhelpful straw


I recently went to a Tai restaurant where I got a tiny straw with my lychee juice. The straw was just barely longer than the glass was deep, which made it very difficult and impractical to drink through. It was also very thin, so you had to suck really really hard to get anything at all to go through the straw. At least it forced you to pace yourself, since you could not drink very quickly through this straw.

Really weird, but fitting, chairs. And matcha.


I spent Sunday sitting on a chair with very uneven legs. This was good, though, since the floor was also uneven. The floor was strongly bowed, and all chairs were cut to fit that. So you cannot move a chair to a different table.


I was there with a friend who was in Sapporo for the weekend. I suggested this cafe since I wanted to have matcha (bitter green tea) and this place serves almost only matcha. It turned out that my friend had brought omiyage (presents when travelling). Which were matcha cakes.
