We didn't go to the Iwa Zushi restaurant, but a general 和食 place because my daughter likes udon a lot. It was close to the Starbucks, but toward the back and left. I can't recall the name. Yeah, I don't drink at all, but I do enjoy plenty of Boss Coffee before I go back to the US. That's probably my 'vice'. ;) Hi Johnl,

I don't *think* I have ever seen a celeb at Narita. But I do like to have a bite to eat there, especially since airline food seems to have gone downhill (or maybe it's because I always fly on the cheapest airline). Anyway, I usually go to Sushi Iwa (or is it Iwa Zushi? Anyway, it has 岩 in the name. The flagship restaurant is in the Tsukiji market area, and it is wonderful. The Narita shop is in the Terminal One mall, I think. I tend to splurge a bit there, before going to a country so far away from the sushi resources of Tsukiji. A sip of sake is nice too (don't overdo it before getting on the plane!) Oh, that's right, you don't drink!!?? Well, as the Japanese say, 気持ちだけ or 'I will just enjoy the feeling/concept (rather than the actual sake).' Yes, I remember Okamura-kun, even though I have been away from TV for a few years.
