Example of Arashii Restaurant

Kaidan Restaurant is a Japanese children's storybook series. The books take the form of horror anthologies, edited by Miyoko Matsutani and illustrated by Yoshikazu Takai and Kumiko Katō. As of 2007, there were 50 volumes published by Doshinsha. Over 8 million copies of the books have published so far.

The books were adapted into a TV anime series by Toei Animation, which began airing in 2009. It derives its name from "kaidan", which, here, loosely translates as "thriller" (from "kai", meaning strange, mysterious, rare or bewitching apparition, and "dan", meaning talk or recited narrative; a more direct translation would be a ghost or horror story). Rather than forming a linear plot, the anime follows the anthology format of the book and tells a collection of ghost stories similar to what would be traditionally told around a campfire. The anime is frequently among the 10 highest rated anime shows of the week in Japan.

So, the family was in the mood to try a new place and we decided on Japanese. Checked Yelp out & found Arashi Sushi. I hadn't even realized that this place had opened, so we were excited, especially after seeing the pictures on here & seeing the four star rating.

When we first drove up at around 8pm on a Saturday night, we saw through the windows that the restaurant was empty & there were like 5 employees all standing around doing nothing by the entrance. My 16 year old daughter opined that we should go somewhere else because  it was a very bad sign that no one was there on a Saturday night. I overruled her (should have listened to her!) based on the Yelp reviews.

We walked in & were warmly greeted. The restaurant itself was absolutely charming. Great decor. We were lead to our table & the only other customers were two people at the sushi bar.

Our waitress was sweet but somewhat inept & seemed to know nothing about the menu.

My daughter ordered a sushi based on the ingredients listed on the menu & we had to send it back when it came with avocado, which she hates.
