[Quiet Man Cometh]

Only problem with koi apparently is that they eat pretty much indiscriminately, or so I've heard. We have a koi in the Japanese garden at my old university and there doesn't appear to be much else in there, besides the ducks and the lotus pool.

At Tivoli in Copenhagan the pond in the middle has koi in it and tourists through bred that gets eaten by both the ducks and the koi. I was watching them at one point and I guess this koi was annoyed with this duck in it's way and started mouthing at the side of it.

Sushi! My favourites would be the Mango roll from a this new take-out place we found, which has mango and crab; the dragon roll from this other take out place we found, which is BBQ's eel, crab, and avacado; BC roll (the variety made with BBQ'd salmon skin in an inside-out roll) and sometimes the Oshinko roll, which is pickled daikon. I usually get some manner of sunomono or gomae, too. Apart from those, good old stand-by is the California roll.

There are several sushi restaurants around where I live, and depending on which one we order from or go to, I get something different. Of course, it's not unusual for regular restaurants to have some manner of sushi. You can't escape it!

It's pretty cheap here too, which is probably due to the number of restaurants and being on the coast. The sushi I got up in the interior of the province was three times as much.
