So I’m at Kobe with 2 people and 8 other strangers.The chef starts doing his thing, tossing shrimp around, flipping knives, making volcanoes out of onions. Then comes the FIRE EXPLOSION. And without even thinking, I immediately blurt out: “Damn, that was like Hiroshima.” Silence. [Crickets] The chef stops. My friend stop. The strangers stop. I swear even the little onion volcano looked uncomfortable. I’m thinking, “Oh no… I have made a terrible mistake.”
