Those are some darn good noodles! Have you ever tried Shikoku udon? It’s famous because it’s beyond delicious! Today we’re going to a small but popular udon shop in Shikoku. A famous J-Pop star also pops in for a bite to eat.
We’ll learn how to make the past tense of -i adjectives. We’ll also look at the useful Japanese phrase ninki ga aru and also the important Japanese word zenzen. You’ll learn Japanese you can use everyday!

They were talking about Gal Sone. 
I saw her on one of my favorite Japanese TV show and she sure eats a lot. She can eat 120 sushis in one go. 
Anyway, good lessen here. Thank you very much Japanesepod!

I love small restaurants. The best sushi restaurant I know seats barely 15 people.
The main complain I have with japanese restaurants (I’m talking about udon/soba/donburi restaurants, not sushi) in Paris is that the really good ones are so crowded that they tend to give you the bill and have you leave the very instant you’re finished… No lingering !

Fingers crossed that next episode Fabrizio has visa problems and is deported back to Italy, never to be heard of again.
