| − | *:Across the street from Parco, on the street with a Lawsons on the corner is a really cool (read: good for dates) place called Garuba (or maybe Garuva). It is a little hard to find, but the Lawsons on the corner is on the main drag, and the front door is an imposing big studded thing, very cool. Food is sort of pan-asian, if that really means anything. Whatever, the good food, decent prices, and really cool laid back atmosphere (all the tables are on the floor in these crazy Arabian Nights-esque tent pavilions) make it worth a visit. The only thing is, the food and the atmosphere clash a bit, because it's strange eating pasta or omuraisu in a candle-lit tent, but it's worth it for the experience. The experience/adventure part is this. First you have to find it (even with a GPS it might be a challenge but follow the directions above). Once you get there, you face a medieval-looking door. Inside, minus a few candles, it's pitch-black. You get to eat under a chiffon white tent, sitting on the floor, with lots of cushions, and your own candle lantern. It's very private, and can be a very intimate and exciting experience. They also have belly dance shows but you have to check their website ([[http://garuva.info/]] in Japanese) or call. It might be safe to make a reservation before you go. | + | *:Across the street from Parco, on the street with a Lawsons on the corner is a really cool (read: good for dates) place called Garuba (or maybe Garuva).
