    I will never get tired of photos of guys in bars looking at you.

      Thanks! It was all set up perfectly. Lovely when that happens. Got lucky with the other’s fella’s expression too, as I was only really focused on the man nearest.

    So the proprietor actually uses charcoal to cook the food for the customers?

      Yeah. Well, certainly the yakitori, anyway. Some places use gas grills to cook it, but the more traditional places very often still use charcoal.

    I love your bar pics. I wish I had the daring to take similar photos but so far, not yet!

      Thank you. Have to admit I’m not daring. Not in the slightest. Quite shy in my own way as well. But if I don’t put myself in such situations, I won’t get the photo, so that forces me to do it. And, the more you force yourself, the easier it becomes. It’s just a case of getting over that first hurdle.
