Oh what a night

Soy sauce ice cream is surprisingly delicious. That's one of the many things I learned today. Another is that Lady Ray and Higuchi San sure know how to treat someone to dinner. I was pleasantly surprised at the process that soy sauce it made, it seemed very simple yer efficient. Our tour guide for Kikkoman was very passionate about what he was teaching us and it was easy to tell that he was proud of the company he works for and the product they sell. The highlight of the day, or I guess night, was going to the trendy restaurant the Mirror to be served a private dinner compliments of Higuchi San. The place was small yet elegant and paired nicely with our attire. Upon arrival we were seated at group tables with drinks and appetizers to get the night started. The meal was served one specific dish at a time, which allowed us to thoroughly enjoy it as opposed to getting flavors mixed together. In my opinion the highlight of the meal was the fresh tuna sashimi served with avocado. Never in my life have I had fish that quality and so delicious. I'm begging to get a little jealous that quality fish isn't always part of a typical diet in America. The night progressively got more and more amazing as everyone started to relax and enjoy each others company. Higuchi San emphasized the importance of doing business globally, experiencing and respecting every culture we encounter. I could not agree with this more. It was one of those nights that play out so nicely that you wake up the next morning smiling and immedialty reminiscing on the good times. I'm very grateful for the experience.
