I can't believe you've gone to M eight times and you're not bankrupt! I want your job:) I only went once, and am writing about it now, and am having such a hard time translating its greatness into words. I love your write up. And like the fact that there weren't repeats -truly impressive. Do you know if you have to order omakase to sit in front of the kitchen? I want to sit there next time I go..
