JU people meeting

[gtlm2000]

I will back to Okinawa in end of December, and I will stay there about
one week.

I'd like to meet people in JU, and I want to have dinner or lunch.
If we could have dinner, Izakaya place is good.
Chatan is best place, and there are many Izakaya style place.
If you have proposal, please tell me. We could make plan in here.

Where will you be staying?

Not everyone here lives in the Chatan area and there are plenty of decent izakaya outside of that area as well.:D

I will stay my parents house in Tomishiro. I could take taxi to go there or
my mom take me to there.

Well, dk told me there are good place in Chatan:D

[dk]

Naha is fine too, but the only people who will probably show up are Muku and Okisteve...

Or, I think Okisteve lives down there, right? Maybe Eelecurb? lol. Everyone else is pretty much up here around the middle of the island or more north...

[gtlm2000]

Well, I'm also OK to have meeting in Naha, but I know most of people is
living in middle part of Okinawa.

[P_chan]

If I wasn't leaving at the end of this month then I would go, no matter where it was at. Sorry!

[gtlm2000]

P chan, I miss you....well I haven't met yet in Okinawa

[DoctorP]

Depending on the time of day, I might make it. I prefer Chatan or up North. I don't get down South that often.

OK, doc. I think it's better to have meeting in chatan or near there.

[Obe1Canole]

I'll be there:thumbup1:

[socalheart]

We'd like to go to a Christmas/New Year meet and greet, gtlm. It'd depend on my husband's schedule though. We're not familiar with anything south of the Naha airport; actually not familiar with much south of the brown building Baptist church intersection. Give us the dates you're available, and hopefully we can all get together. :)

[gtlm2000]

I'll be there:thumbup1:

I meet you there:thumbup:
We should decide place and date. It has time untill then.

Do you know any good place to eat or drink?

I will have New years party with my family on January 1st, and
2nd is my nephew's birthday so I can't get out that's day.
I will back to Okinawa on December 27 and I will leave there on
Janurary 4th. We should have meeting between this period.

[Jazz]

Well, I'll be out of town but a couple of my favorite Izakayas in Chatan are Poco a Poco (great relaxing environment and eye candy), and Kimpa Gimpa (great Ramen). There's also a new one that should be opened pretty soon, the big greyish building that just went up in Mihama on 58, it's supposed to be some famous Izakaya from mainland.

I know Poco a Poco, and I have been there once.:)

[gtlm2000]

Note : There are a lot of people have year end party in December at Izakaya so we need to reservation little early.

I thought Poco a Poco was a female clothing store?

[Carl]

I thought Poco a Poco was a female clothing store?

Maybe that's why it's a relaxing environment with eye candy? :scratchchin:

I'd go, but I'm going to be in the states from Dec 20 to Jan 5.

[The One]

I thought Poco a Poco was a female clothing store?

There is a female clothing store by that name. But there is an Izakaya in the parking lot of a Arcade on 58 with the same name. Maybe same owner...

[gtlm2000]

I thought Poco a Poco was a female clothing store?

Yeah, I know there is female clothing store which call Poco a Poco.
There is also Izakaya that's same name in Chatan.

[Jazz]

Not sure about the owner, probably, there is also a Poco A Poco Izakaya in Mashiki Ginowan, I actually like that one better, the Iazakayas are the same owner.

Oh, you will go to the states.....why don't you take awamori with you?:D

[I Am Luna]

I'm down. I didn't make the last meet because most people were spread out ( some in the smoking area and some inside ) so I got confused. That was like, almost a year ago, lol. Plus, I was on crack so....little bit of nervousness.
I know an Izakaya that has 50 yen beer all night. Hopefully it is still there when I get back. 7 more days baby! WOO!

:w00t::w00t::w00t::w00t::w00t::w00t::w00t:

Hell yeah! I was at the beerfest semi-JU meet.. THAT was fun. Oh and by the way... How are you the head of Absolute car club? If I remember correctly, it was ME who came up with the idea in the first place and also me who came up with the name... Riddle ME that Luna?!:scratchchin:

Dear P chan

Is this place that's you told me before?

Yes, that is jon jon's.

I think it's good place. I like buffet style too, and cost is also nice.

[Bones]

Well if it's going to be held over there, I might show up. Jon Jon's I mean. Just the right atmosphere of young/old people. Throw a date at me. It's pretty cheap too.:rolleyes:

OK, Jon Jon's is one of candidacy.

[Muku]

You may want to reconsider that one seeing as how poorly people from here were treated there during the lockdown meet.

There was quite a bit of justified anger at the management for there asinine way it treated folks, at least according to the after action report.

True, but gt will be in town and would like to meet people. I don't know about you, but I would go if it was a place everyone else wanted to go to. Even if I didn't like the place in question.

[Bones]

I probably may not be able to make it it anyhow. So what's the point? But if enough people show up in a place that he feels comfortable in, why not make the effort?

[gtlm2000]

Well, I just want to meet people in JU, and having fun.

Oh, OK. where is your favorite place?

[hankypanky]

Oh, OK. where is your favorite place?

u don't want to go to sex's favorite place. at least leave the wife and kids at home if you do:D

[socalheart]

The only other place I can think of is Kitakaisen. We can reserve the side room there to avoid the cigarette smoke and din of the main restaurant. They also have a variety of food and alcohol for different appetites.

Important thing is they have a lot of food and drink.

I'm looking for some place which is izakaya in Chatan. I will put some infomation about Izakaya when I find some of good place.

[I Am Luna]

Are you in Okinawa yet gtlm2000?
What is the name of that little town in between Yonabaru and Onna? It has a few nice looking izakayas.
If you want, I can go scout it out.

That's with in "walking" distance of my house. It would be a long walk though. Sucks having a wife that's deployed and a 7 year old that lost his license due to DUI.

Cripes Luna little town between Yonabaru and Onna....that's almost half the damn island....Nishihara, Nakagusuku, Kitanakagusuku, Okinawa City, Uruma City....cut across the island and you have Urasoe City, Ginowan City, Chatan, Kadena, and Yomitan.

Where per chance were you referring to?

[Muku]

If you head to Nishihara, Haebaru, Yonabaru, or anywhere close by I would gladly be your guide!

It actually really isn't a city, its more of a strip along 58. It is right before Tiger Beach.

Then my next question is do you know where Yonabaru is?

What is the name of that little town in between Yonabaru and Onna?


Then it makes what you wrote here a bit more understandable:scratchchin: Also FYI Onna is a village and the area around it is a part of the same village, the district you might be looking for is called Yamada maybe?

http://www.karate.tcdlife.ie/img/map.gif

Look towards the bottom right and you will find Yonabaru.

[DoctorP]

It's in Onna village Muku.

[gtlm2000]

Onna-son is so far from my parents house where is Tomishiro.

[Muku]

Onna-son is so far from my parents house where is Tomishiro.

Tomigusuku.......:D

Dont know if you knew this, I just heard this story recently myself, but the name Tomigusuku has been used ever since the now city was a village.

People started using the name Tomishiro after Tomishiro HS went to Koshien nearly 30 years or so ago. Plus any of the public buildings, namely Tomishiro Minami HS, Tomishiro HS and Tomishiro ES were built and named by the prefecture. Locally or city built schools and public buildings were given the Tomigusuku name, which happens to be the actual name of the City.

For those that dont know, Tomishiro is the "mainland" way of reading the kanji and Tomigusuku is the Okinawan way of reading the same kanji.

豊見城　plus on any Word Processing programs the automatic or default change for the hiragana to kanji is now Tomigusuku and not Tomishiro.

[Muku]

Edited to add here.....
I am just curious now, it really isnt a big deal and I know the area that Luna is referring to....:thumbup1:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------


It's in Onna village Muku.

There is a Yonabaru area in Onna Village?

I checked and there is no location of that name in Onna Village that I can find. 　I thought I knew that area fairly well and can not recall ever seeing any signs or markers saying Yonabaru. :scratchchin:　　The closest I can recall is Kisenbaru

You have peaked my curiosity and I would like to know where specifically in Onna Village where the Yonabaru Area is. 　Thank you!:D

This is a link (http://www.vill.onna.okinawa.jp/tabid/242/Default.aspx) to the listed areas/districts in Onna.

referring to the area he was talking about with the izakayas...I was not referring to Yonabaru. I was pretty sure you already knew where that was.

Just out of curiosity here I, seeing as how you are Okinawan how do you feel about the differences in names?

[gtlm2000]

Some people still say "Tomishiro" now.
I don't feel anything about differences in names.
I use Tomigisuku when I tell adress for someone.

Opps. I meant Yomiton, not Yonabaru.
lol, cocaine is a hell of a drug. :)

Have you all been izakaya which is "Himitukichi"?

[zeldan]

Depending on the time of day, I might make it. I prefer Chatan or up North. I don't get down South that often.

Sorry to hear that =/

[OkinawaStud]

Sorry to hear that =/

Oh I LOVE going down south. But the road better be nice and bare. Don't like all the "traffic."

A dirt road that's been nicely cleaned. Maybe had the old once over from a razor.

[Muku]

Sorry to hear that =/

Did you have fun at Naha Festival?

[zeldan]

I had a great time =)

[gtlm2000]

Have anybody gone izakaya which is Kitadaichi in Chatan?
It's also in Naha, but I haven't been there.

[Muku]

There are a few in the Naha area and I have been to those. Kitadaichi is a franchise type of izakaya, their main claim in television CM's is to be a "kaisen" izakaya and for the most part they lived up to that claim imo. Oh sorry, never been to the one in Chatan.

However I thought they were a bit overpriced for the quality and quantity of food.

They aren't bad, but in my opinion, they are nothing to write home to Mom about.

[Jazz]

Worst Izakaya (if you can call it that) I've been to is called Kitakaisen (I think), in the Chatan sports center. Is that the same place? It feels like a church potluck (at least the room it's in reminds me of church get-togethers I've been to), except w/ horrible food and alcohol.

Do you all think Jan Jan is OK?

I will be here at end of December now.

So in Asia and Alabama, it's okay to take a baby to a bar. :thumbup1: I tried to tell my husband that when Sex Wax and them were going to be at Fujis on Thanksgiving, but he's from Texas. I guess they don't do that there. heh. :p

It's really the cigarette smoke that concerns me. I don't want her in a room filled with it, if I can help it. I don't know of many Japanese restaurants that are non-smoking though, except in hotels or upscale places. Then again, we don't eat out much.

The smoke is good for her - it will build her immune system when she's young ???????

I'm ok with Kitakaisen. Jons-Jons is a maybe unless you want to see me fall-down drunk and sick. Then it's a definite... j/k

Nope, in Texas they don't take their kids to bars...they fence in a field and bring everyone over! :thumbup1:

[thistle]

Thought the idea was to go somewhere more central since gtml is going to be based down in the South.

[socalheart]

Other than BIG DIP or Arin Krin (which is way small with crappy parking), I don't know too many places Urasoe way. Please suggest someplace ON the beaten path, near Hwy 58 preferably, that is similar to the places suggested.

[gtlm2000]

It's OK for Urasoe or Makiminato area.

[gtlm2000]

How is December 30th? Do you all have idea?

[gtlm2000]

Oh, about place. Is Kitakaisen or Jons-Jons OK for you all?
I'm still looking for other place.

Poco a Poco in Mashiki, Ginowan.

Depends on how many people? 5? 10? 20?

It is a busy season and places will be booked up soon.

Somebody...start a poll!

[hankypanky]

How about December 30th at night?

I guess i can deal with nite, days are cool also. but i will be working from the 22nd though 4 jan till 10 pm each nite. ginowan is cool for me. much cheaper for daiko than chatan or oki city. Don't know if the 31st has been declared a holiday yet though. some people might have to work on the 31st.

[gtlm2000]

I'm interested in Jons-Jons.
I like buffet style restaurant.

[hankypanky]

if the 31st is off for americans, that place will be swamped:w00t:

[socalheart]

I think that piglet and I can go. :thumbup: Just say when.

Is Liberal opened at night? It's a buffet in Ginowan. Otherwise if it doesn't have to be a buffet Thistle's got the right idea - Poco a Poco in Mashiki is great!

I won't be there, or even on island then, just bored and offering suggestions.

[gtlm2000]

OK, We should decide place.

Jon-Jon's : Night buffet will be 3,000 yen.

They have "Nomihoudai" plan. It will be 3,000 yen.

[socalheart]

Since gtlm seems to like the buffet thing, and this is his idea, and I like their little weenies, I'm voting for Jyan-Jyan's. We can all make it after all, so look forward to meeting gtlm and whomever shows. Since gtlm is a car guy, expect to see many car guys. :)

Every meet you guys have had is at JOn-JOn's.

[My Monster]

We've met at Hard Reef probably a dozen times since the last time we went to Jon Jon's. Last time we went to Jon Jon's was what, February???

[Sex Wax]

[Muku]

3000 yen is a great price for what jon jons offers...........

Hope you all have a great time!

[gtlm2000]

OK, I need to know how many people will join the meeting.
Please tell me again if you want to join the meeting.

[socalheart]

[I Am Luna]

I'll stop by and take pictures. I don't think I have to get up early on the 31st, but I'll check.

[Obe1Canole]

I'm going. Gotta remind myself to set aside enough money or else ill spend it the weekend before. How much would a daiko be from Jon jons to Kinser? I've never taken one...

[P_chan]

You guys better post pictures!

[gtlm2000]

[hankypanky]

probably about 2000 - 2500 yen. i live in nakagusuku behind futenma way and its about 1200 yen for me.

If u live on base, you can call the daiko service posted in the club and they can give u a quote before hand so u are ready. This is the only daiko service allowed on base.

[gtlm2000]

I think around 10 poeple will join the meeting.

[Trail]

Not sure if we will have the 6,000Y for dinner. Mr.Trail might even be working so we are a MAYBE 3

To recap: the holiday JU meet is on DEC 30th at 7:00 p.m. at JYAN-JYAN'S Mihama. Right? Do we have a reservation? Do we just meet up outside the restaurant up stairs or what?

Yes, it will be December 30th at 7PM at Jyan-Jyan's Mihama.
We could meet outside the restaurant up stairs.

About reservation, I don't know how many people will be there yet.
When I know, I will call to Jyan-Jyan's.

You should probably call and reserve for 10-15 people. I doubt you would have more than that based on past history. At least you would have a reservation.

*I won't be able to attend...I have another party I have to be at that night.*

[socalheart]

Jyan-Jyan's telephone number: 098-926-3051

Someone who speaks Japanese should make a reservation for a table, maybe 6-10 people is a safer bet. We can always add a table. Make the reservation under the name JAPAN UPDATE, so we can all find it if we arrive after 7 p.m.

[gtlm2000]

Thank you Socal and Doc. OK, I will make reservation today.

[gtlm2000]

I made reservation for 10 people. Oh!! I made reservation with my name, :(
I can call them again, and change the name.

gt...don't post your family name here. Just call and change the reservation name to JapanUpdate.

[gtlm2000]

OK, I changed reservation name for JU meeting.

[Muku]

Speaking from experience huh:rolleyes:

He was talking to Bones. A better comment would have been something about Muku's one show-up after finding rok-sen yen in a brown paper bag with which he used for taxi fare! :)

well...he quoted me...so meh!

Another good comment would be how he "lost" a member after a meet!:thumbdown:

Very funny AH....:w00t: I was actually at the first two neither of which DocP "managed" to go to and the third one was during the lockdown which I had a previous engagement to attend.

He has not attended any of the meets that were held at JonJon's yet he talks about them like he knows went on. Whether he "showed" up at Hanks or not doesnt matter seeing as how not everyone went there either. :rolleyes:

Oh and my comment about taxi fare was 10,000 yen not 6,000 at least try to get the number right please.:scratchchin:

I haven't made any of the Jyan Jyan meets either. :)

For 10K yen, I'd make the wife/cousin/mother drive for 5K. But that's just me.

[gtlm2000]

I hope It will be fun meeting :)
Just have fun!!!
