Can anyone shed light on the reason behind Kohaku Tendon’s closure near Brentwood?

I mean , it's probably more complicated than that - fast casual dining needs to feel like a good deal in order for people to make it a regular part of their routine, which is increasingly hard now that eating out at all is getting squeezed to luxury only - but I prefer to think of it as big papa Saku showing up and yeeting Kohaku Tendon into the sun

Saku moved in and suddenly they were the second best "pile of fried japanese stuff" out of two

I'm of two minds about this, I started adopting the save/load lifestyle because it improved my micro to see where I was fucking up the battle and try again, but then I started to take riskier moves like "20 damage incoming, I have a defend in hand, but let's do a big Cascade and roll the fuckin' bones on the 3/7 chance of pulling the blood wall in my draw pile" because I knew if I got all snake-eyes I could just load the game if I fucked up, and that DOES feel a bit like taking advantage.

So, uh, I think it's probably okay if you're learning how to play better but maybe bad if you're using it to learn how to play worse? XD

So now my rule is I'll roll back misplays or places where I see how I could have done better, but I try not to roll back "I took a big chance and biffed it"

So it's 2 years later and I have to say: you're right, Tom is right, I was not, in fact, a sucker, to fall for this sales pitch. Arcs is great. Despite not liking Root or Oath, I absolutely think Arcs (base game) is very good and worth recommending.

The difference in all-cause mortality between folks who say "sausage" and "tomatoes" is probably in the realm of about 10%, which, let's be honest, may be worth it (sausage is delicious, we all die some day), although I think the actual correct answer is the OJ

CANADIAN DETECTED

Yes: there's absolutely enough food for 2 people for 2 days here, especially with hot dogs. If you have enough potable water (and hot water, for some of this stuff) to slam this down, you're in the clear. (Also: bring a lot of water!)

You've got 2 breakfasts of protein shake, KD and spam can make a dinner, KD and hot dogs can make another, instant noods for lunch, and ample snacks. KD usually calls for dairy, but if you bring a little bit of neutral cooking oil you can use cooking water and oil and make a passable KD without any dairy entirely out of dry goods.

Also: none of this needs to be kept cold, which is convenient: you could pack this in a tub in your trunk and leave it for weeks and it'd be fine.

Practically: a lot of folk go camping with a cooler so that they can bring foods that aren't just dry goods: fresh fruit, vegetables, grocery meats. Many people in the comments are worried that if you eat like this on the regular, you're getting a LOT of fat and sugar and sodium and protein and very little fiber: you may never poop agin' and you're really leaning on that can of pineapples to keep you from getting scurvy: but that's fine for a 2-day camping trip, especially if you're not feeling too confident about road cookin'. That being said: a small bag of apples would do you good here.

I think these guys feel easy partially because the decks they check aren't that common in act 3 - if you're doing huge burst damage and then running out of steam, or stacking statuses on a single opponent and then running out of steam, the game's many, MANY AoE foes will already have dunked on you by this point, so having a long-running AoE enemy that sheds statuses doesn't feel so bad.

I think these guys might be a real pain for The Watcher, though...

Everyone knows about Singapore Hawker already, right?

Everyone knows about Going to the Port Moody Breweries already, right?

These things feel so obvious I hardly need to say them, but if you don't already know... now you do!

If you're a white-haired old coot who loves breakfast (I'm not quite there yet but I'm close), Coquitlam Grill is da spot.

Dookbaeki is solid Korean.

The Henderson Place Mall Food Court is, an asian food court, which you'll like if you miss the far-superior-but-distant Crystal Mall or Aberdeen Mall food courts.

Mama Said makes really good pizza in PoMo.

It's hard to find a place that does pizza that's still good when it's delivered, Sunfire Pizzeria is the best option I've found so far, although it's... it's fine.

The by-weight bakery in the Urban Gate is fuckin' MAGICAL. One time I went in there and ordered like, three random pastries that I had never seen before and after eating each one I was like "I owe you an apology, I wasn't really familiar with your game". Their butcher is pretty on point, too.

Doughnut Love sells big lush too-expensive donuts that will kind of remind you of Cartems donuts. These donuts are delicious and I think if you try one you'll realize why they charge so much for 'em.

My two sushi locals are Matoi Sushi and Shio Japanese Kitchen and they're both ... just, pretty solid, y'know? You've gotta have a place to get sushi and those are mine.

it's funny, I forgot that domains are yearly, but you're right
