Pccht! Rules. Well yeah, there are. If you ate at my dad's restaurant, you'd need to do it by the Japanese social rules, but I was never a guy to dwell too much on it, you know?

[He's still going to explain them, just that if Qui-Gon doesn't want to do it, he doesn't really care.]

Basic rule; eat it with the fish side to your tongue. I'd also start with the lighter tasting fish, which uh, I've been told are these...[He points to a few.] then, finish with the other. There's also some gari if you want to clean your palate after each bite along with water. It's pickled ginger, but I'm not sure if it tastes exactly like home...hard to make everything like home when they don't have the same stuff.

[Eikichi earns Qui-Gon's rapt attention as he listens to the list of cultural etiquette, always one to absorb whatever he can about the galaxy outside of what he's familiar with. Even someone who's visited hundreds of other worlds still has a lot to learn. It's a fact that keeps his heart humble and his mind open.]

[So he places down the sushi he'd originally picked and goes for a piece gestured to by Eikichi, popping it into his mouth as instructed. His eyebrows raise, impressed.]

It's quite delicate. I like it.

Heh heh...yeah that's the type of verb pops would use to describe the food too.

[He nods to himself before eating part of the his own food.]

Did anyone show you chopsticks? We use 'em all over in Japan to eat just about anything. Which is why a lot of the food is either long like noodles or all chopped up by the chef before bein' eaten.

[sithkabobed]

No, I can't say anybody has. At least not yet.

[He quirks his brows and dips his head in Eikichi's direction, as if inviting him to give a lesson. He's all about cultural exchange, after all.]

Is that the majority of the kind of food you cook?
