...reassured Kitcho that we weren't strangers to kaiseki. We've eaten at many exclusive kaiseki restaurants, including the renowned Hyotei and Kikunoi. I speak passable Japanese, and my epicurean husband happily devours everything from poison-blowfish sperm to stewed snapping turtle. Kitcho doesn't take credit cards, so we were prepared to pay $400 to $600 per person in cash. But in Japan--and certainly at Kitcho--protocol and relationships are sacred.

I braved the fugu sashimi, cut in silicon-thin slices. It did not, as I expected, taste like death; it tasted more like record corporate earnings...
...asks, overtaken with curiosity. “College of Charleston?” Simon answers as meekly as possible. The light is about to change and the car inches forward towards the onramp. “Get in,” the driver says, her voice cracking. A plastic blowfish bath toy swings from the rearview mirror. The car smells like saccharin, like a new synthetic interior mixed with a kid come straight off the playground.
