Boiled okura and little tomatoes marinated in soysauce based soup.

"First Star" was a refreshing concoction based on carbonated limeade.

Black stuff settled down.

Kind of strange texture.

Our next table was actually a cocktail cabinet game called "Micom Break"

Gasen Bank "Block Kuzushi" (a penny bank with Breakout).

This one is by Eri Takenashi, author of the original manga. The manga serialized in Comic Rex went on a brief hiatus after Takenashi fell ill in November, 2008. Now that she's out of hospital and recovering at home, maybe we can see the series pick up where it left, sometime soon.
