Chou Izakaya

Chou Izakaya takes its name from Izakaya, the traditional bars frequented by members of Japan's workforce who enjoy shared snacks and drinks after work. In the kitchen of a subdued, stylish lounge with canary-yellow walls and finely finished wooden picnic-style tables, chefs carry on the tradition by preparing between 40 and 50 small plates each day. Among their specialties are tempura-fried avocado with citrus sauce, smelts grilled over embers of Japanese white-oak charcoal, and fresh sushi that they slice and roll themselves rather than searching for already-assembled rolls in the ocean. Bartenders complement the food by pouring sake and mixing cocktails with ingredients such as aloe and yuzu juice.

The Groupon Guide to: Diary Greetings

Fewer and fewer people are keeping diaries now that it's possible to quickly broadcast your feelings on social-media sites such as Facebook, TalkHole, and Spewr. If you're holding on to the past, at least keep your diary entries fresh by starting them with one of these "Dear Diary" substitutes:

  • Hello, book
  • Good to see you, paper thing
  • Diary, you're the only one that listens to me. Here I go!
  • Hey journal, you ready for some illegible scribbles?
  • Good morning, and thank you for letting me do this to you again.
  • OK, time to cover your body in my feelings.
  • Greetings, may our time together be fruitful (kiss the diary).
  • Vrrrrooom! Here comes the choo-choo pen down the diary tracks!
  • I've done terrible things and these are a few.

Spewr lets you share your feelings with friends—on the Internet!
