Tsukiji! One of my very favorite outings in Japan. The best sushi I ever ate in my LIFE was in a tiny shop in Tsukiji, with the wife of the governor of Arkansas. We had two of the six seats in the place. One person was standing up next to us. He said, "Mrs. Huckabee, your husband is standing outside in the rain and there's no more room inside. He looks like he's ready to go." Janet, who was working her way through a plate of sashimi and several pieces of nigiri, looked at the guy calmly and said, "He can wait."

 

He did.
