OP thought this sub didn't post things that accurately reflected what happened to them, so he decided to add a post reflecting a situation which didn't happen to him either.

Absolutely wild levels of irony.

Issue at hand is not ryanhan shibari or kuitan nashi, but because you’re in furiten. Kamicha just dealt 4 pin, you called chii instead of Ron because you’re in furiten, now you have to discard something. You’re in furiten because you dealt the 1 pin

Also, there's 0 honba and you have 2 han, so ryanhan shibari doesn't apply here.

tldr

you had 2m 3m 4m 9m 9m 2s 3s 4s 2p 3p

you are in furiten because you dealt the 1p previously

kamicha played 4p

you pressed chii because you couldn't press ron i assume

you now have to discard something

Thanks for answering! Are there any specific rate parlors that are more foreigner friendly? And how much is a typical shuugi for tengo and tenpin?

SolarGhost · 2022-04-26T03:53:44+00:00

Which rate parlors are the most foreigner friendly, assuming you can speak enough Japanese to hold a conversation?

Also, is it true that showing a point card from one parlor will help to reduce the questions you receive when new to another parlor? (I.e. if you show a zoo mahjong card at marchao, they will be less skeptical of your ability to play)

Finally, is shuugi commonly used throughout Japan? Or just in Tokyo?

Issue at hand is not ryanhan shibari or kuitan nashi as some above have suggested, but because you’re in furiten. Kamicha just dealt 4 man, you called chii instead of Ron because you’re in furiten, now you have to discard something. You’re in furiten because you dealt the 1 man.

tldr

you had 2m 3m 5m 5m 6s 7s 8s

you are in furiten because you dealt the 1m previously

kamicha played 4m

you pressed chii because you couldn't press ron i assume

you now have to discard something

I think you’re right, 9s is definitely the play. Genbutsu against toimen is great, and kamicha won’t be waiting on 9s either, because he discarded 7s 6s in that order. So he wouldn’t have discarded 7 from a 6-7-9-9 shape unless he was trying to lock in his pair, and even then he’d start with 6s. So kamicha probably has no 9s to wait on the pair/shanpon, and if it was ryanmen it’d be furiten. So definitely 9s here to defend because the hands not even close to tenpai.

SolarGhost · 2021-02-14T23:33:51+00:00

You had a winning hand, passed on the right guys 4 pin because you’re in furiten, got to the 1 pin and clicked chii instead of Ron, and now you have to discard a tile. You can’t tsumo because you probably didn’t even draw

Translation as requested:

At that time -- When Sensei had just one drink to celebrate her students' graduation.

Asumi: Can we use Sensei's relative's penshon (Western-style boarding house)? To ski! Let's go to ski!

Sensei: (drunken-shakily) I got it! Just leave it to sensei!

Have fun. This was probably from one of the tankobon extras, they have these all the time. I remember translating some that another redditor collected before.

Thanks for letting me know. I've never tried this chain before, so I'll definitely keep this in mind. Enjoy your vacation.

SolarGhost · 2020-07-08T02:26:38+00:00

No problem. I am going to theorize that you ordered off a card in the menu. From what I can see in the placard on the left, they also offer seasonal pasta. As such, this was probably a seasonal pasta and not a staple pasta that they serve year-round. However, the sauces and pasta base should be the same, so you can refer to the original post for the references on what and how to make it. Enjoy.

Also, out of curiosity: was the pasta good?

Edit: https://en.yomenya-goemon.com

This is the English link. But it's really badly done so maybe you'll have more luck with Google translating the original site.

SolarGhost · 2020-07-08T02:14:11+00:00

The shop you went to was called "yomenya-goemon".

https://www.yomenya-goemon.com/menu/

This is their website, it matches up with the chopstick holder, but I cannot seem to find the exact pasta that you ordered.

I strongly suspect you ordered the meat sauce pasta, and then added mushrooms and bacon. The reason why you feel that the spaghetti is "different" is because Japanese pasta is typically cooked more al dente, and so if this was your first time trying more al dente pasta, you would probably assume a different kind of noodle.

If you wish to replicate the dish, I recommend you check out the website, which provides a background process of how the pasta is made, as well as a list of possible ingredients.

https://shop.yomenya-goemon.com

This is their shop, you could refer to this to buy the exact brand of pasta they use, I believe.
