Pull this tab labeled 1.
Then 2 and 3?
Right. It's as easy as ABC.
Oh, this is a perfect snack. I'm starvbing.
Don't get your hopes up.
Why? What's inside it?
Picled plum.
Okay. Here goes.
How is it?
Hmm... interesting. I like natto-maki better.
You like natto-maki?
Why natto (not).
Is it hard to make puns, Katie?
Natto = Not at all.
It is natto (not).
I just wanted you to say, "It's as easy as ABC."

Oh, this is a cozy little restaurant.
Yes. It's just hole in the wall, but they've got the best noodles in town.
Mmm! This tempura udon is the best! How're your curry noodles?
Scrumptious.
Oh!
You know, it's a Japanese custom to slurp your noodles.
Really?
Yes. Try it, it's fun.
Hmm... Oh! Yum. It tastes better if you slurp.
Yes. Oh, good show!
Oh, well done.
Could you keep it down, please?
Oh, sorry.
I can't hear myself slurp, you know.
Oh, so sorry.
That's better.
Good show, Ken.
Yes, jolly good. (jolly good. = とても良い)
I think that was a little ... little too laoud myself?
No, no, no.
No?
It was perfect.
Besides it's a Japanese custom to slurp your noodles.
And it’s fun.
Who taught you that?
You did.
Radio Eikaiwa.
Okay.
Oh!
Yeah. It's a Japanese custom to slurp your noodles exactly.

This is one of the oldest Zen temples in Japan.
Oh, it's a huge complex!
Oh, yeah. See that bell with the thatched belfry over there?
Oh! That's a beauty!
It's designated as a national treasure.
Wow! I wiish we could ring it.
You'd have to join the monestery to do that.
What's that? You said?
I said you’d have to join the monestery do that.
Mybe in my ....
What?
Maybe in my next life!
Hot but good.
Ken, can I ask you something?
Sure!
Is Kenchin-jiru, is that also designated as a national treasure?
I wish it was. It's, it's uh... wonderful. I think it should be
designated as a national favorite.
Oh, it's that good.
