Another movie day for me! Movie number 17 in this year.



Wonder Woman - from DC Comic.
Unlike Avengers movie, the story was quite flat and simple. Well, I still like a little sophisticated story...
Wonder Woman - simply beautiful and strong. Not bad, though.



While being hungry in watching the movie, ramen noodle crossed my mind more than several times.
I then rushed into a ramen shop immediately after the movie. No hesitation.
With today's watch - Audemars Piguet



Stopping by Cartier boutique shop for picking up my watch from overhaul. They call it as "Complete Service." Whatever.
Unfortunately, the service provided was unsatisfactory.
Didn't pick up then. I had to wait. Oh boy, this is a mess.

For supper, MoonFlower and I went out to Kanda area.
Went in to the Bistro Brook Kitchen. It is our 1st time to dine in.



Very fancy place with full of guests tonight.



Chose sparkling wine and several fish dishes.



No more wine afterwards. Picked Mojito for my 2nd and last drink. Not bad at all.



This place's speciality - dry-aged beef. Pretty expensive… and we expected good quality… but not so much, unfortunately.
Different place we went before - back on July 9th - "Beef Beef Beef" day… we went to restaurant called "LE VIN ET LA VIANDE."
That place is much much better off for aged beef / steak. I should go back to that restaurant one more time.

Very rare… but my favorite.
Today turns to be a good movie day for me. Actually, saw two of them within one day!
One is the Spider-man and the other is the Mummy by Tom Cruise.


This is movie number 13 in this year.

Fun? This movie seemed a bit cheap. Hope that next one of the series comes along with expectation.
Spiderman in my understanding is a little bit serious but clumsy…
In this story, "new" spider-man is quite easy going… in order to match the rest of Avengers, I believe.


This becomes movie number 14 in 2017.

Actually, wanted to see the Transformers. Well, I had to wait until MoonFlower can go together since she wanted to see as well.

I wouldn't have watched this movie if Tom was not in the movie. Story was quite adventurous but not the way I like.
Mummy seems a little bit ugly… hahaha.

Tomorrow, I will see the Transformers with MoonFlower. Very tensed time for me to go movies! Yeah!

Awesome movie!!!



Original title is, as you know, The Fate of the Furious and "FF8 (Fast and Furious Series #8)."
While, easy local name for this movie in Japanse as:
WILD SPEED. Subtitle is "ICE BREAK."

So when you talk about this movie to any Japanese friends, make sure that you call "Wild Speed."
Am sure that most of the cases, your Japanese friends do understand what movie you talk about.

Cannot wait FF9 and even 10… how far this "Family" can go? Hehehe.

Hahaha… joke became true!
Finished today's work around 5pm and had some time off.



Quick supper at hotel. Cup noodles.
Then, went to movie theater.



Still wearing suits. Hahaha.



Watched "Kong Skull Island."
Not bad… story with good visual. But still unreal. Hahaha.
Cannot wait "Godzilla vs. Kong" which is next after this.

After the closing of a big project, I am quite relaxed and slept in. This is sure thing for all of you folks as well, right? I am sure that it is.
Crossed my mind about what to eat and I ended up a new place not too far from home.
It is called "Wheet and Olive."

What an interesting name for Ramen shop. It is really and it is FAMOUS. Original shop is in Ginza.
Now it opens new place in Nihonbashi. I think that it is from 22nd of February. So still quite new.



Not "Ramen" it called. Rather, "Soba."
Soba applies more Japanese noodle with buckwheat flour. Rather, Ramen is made out of ordinary (?) wheet flour.
Hahaha. Cannot explain the real difference in English… but they are different.

In Japanese, Soba-ko vs. Komugi-ko. They are different.

Well, first time for me to go into this famous noodle place. It was very different from ones I usually eat. Pretty simple but very taste.
I may try other on the menu soon!



From 2:20pm, I went in a movie theater to check this out:



Vin Diesel's TRIPLE X - Return of Xander Cage.
Very easy story to follow and fun to watch because he never gets shot at all no matter how many bullets shot aiming at him.
Is this American James Bond? Or reality of America's Avengers?



This is finally bought and here at home. Now still missing new suitcase. Be here soon??? Will see.

Didn't plan to but turned out that it was movie night tonight.

Had a long day for work until 8pm or so. Worked with client, with peers and with young consultants.
Last job done for today was that I participated in the workshop organized for such new and young fellows.
It was interesting "academic-like" atmosphere.

Supper was at ramen noodle shop.



This was my supper and found out that MoonFlower was at much better place to eat:



It was FUGU cuisine. Fugu is blowfish… this is a large Fugu sashimi plate.
Believe me that this is VERY expensive. Very tasty, though.
How come she gets such a better treat? I come to very cheap food like ramen? Oh boy, this is such an unfair world between us.

So I had to make something happen to compete with her. I checked and decided to go to movie after ramen.



Watched Japanese movie called "Survival Family."
One family's story about surviving during the long period out of electricity.
Amazing enough to know how much we rely on such power.

Without power, things are not going to be the same at all… not only material wise but also mental wise.

Finished watching movie at quarter after 11pm. Just hit my sack straight then. Hahaha.

This is 5th movie in this year, already. Way to go!

All right… Friday is over. Now going into a weekend!



Today's attire and pen for work.
Brioni tie is always cool and I love it. Very fancy and perfect match to Cartier Santos100XL.
Pen is also gold today. Pelikan Souveran M450 Vermeil / Tortoise. This is no longer produced.

Pretty good match and coordination, don't you think? Too vivid?



Finally came to see this movie before too late. I took advantage of free movie ticket today.
Somehow, "The Accountant" is changed to "The Consultant" in Japan. Probably, it is much easier for all to imagine.
Well, the movie was so-so. I thought that it would be much better and fun. It was mediocre one.



Last shot for the day… over the supper in the pizza place. MoonFlower and I found very good place!
Yammy pizza it was.
Okay, let's enjoy the weekend!

Next project is coming up in a while… thus, it means that I still can spare some time…
So after work, went to a movie… since Monday's price is off.
In fact, every Monday the movie ticket becomes cheaper with coupon.

Usual price is 1,800 yen -> 1,100 yen with coupon.



Picked "Doctor Strange." Yeah, Marvel's movie.
Story was rather simple; however, the motion picture was quite decent.
Cannot wait for next Avengers' movie for sure!



Lunch - 600 yen.



Supper with MoonFlower. Quick supper with limited alcohol tonight. Didn't plan to drink… much.

Okay, Monday is now finished. Next?

As per MoonFlower's request - we went for lunch at Indian restaurant with good reviews within "Tabelog" site.
Man, that site never lies!
The choice was right and we came to foods as we just needed.



Great and spicy curry!!! She liked the foods and we definitely will come back soon!

I was released from family duty in the afternoon and finally went to see this "never-miss" movie. It is " Start Wars - Rogue One."



Very sad story before the Jedi come to the life…
Wars never bring human to anywhere for sure.
