My Chopsticks

 

Cool bit of greenery that you see more and more these days, this time up at my mate Yoshi’s bar, Gyubaton 牛馬豚 in Asagaya. Instead of going through tons of disposable wooden chopsticks (hashi) every year, a lot of bars and restaurants are now offering a discount for anyone who’ll buy their own chopsticks up front and keep them at the bar.

If you become a “My Hashi Supporter”, you pay 800yen up front for your sticks, but get a free drink worth 600yen every time you go back. 

Good to see it catching on….
