Hiyayakko on the way...

December 29th, 2013, 6pm

I’m always a bit tentative when using the word ironic; especially after that song1.

This time last year for my birthday we devoured an Indian feast in Tokyo with Godfather beer and red wine.

This year, a simple Japanese meal, with imported sake, on the Fitzroy/Collingwood border round the corner from where we lived for many years.

Hmmm. On second thought, maybe it isn’t…

Either way they were both great nights.


  1. The song’s usage of the word ‘ironic’ attracted media attention for an improper application of the term, because according to Jon Pareles of The New York Times, the song gives a distinct ‘unironic’ sense in its implications.”
