Yaohan Plaza?

adam. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 21 October 2004 21:44 (twenty-one years ago)

I FOR ONE AM SKEPTICAL

roxymuzac, Thursday, 21 October 2004 21:44 (twenty-one years ago)

Seriously. THE BEST FUN EVER!

marianna lcl (marianna lcl), Thursday, 21 October 2004 21:46 (twenty-one years ago)

I am convinced! It is M's expression of confused horror that settles it, for me. You can't teach that, yaknow.

Gravel Puzzleworth (Gregory Henry), Thursday, 21 October 2004 21:47 (twenty-one years ago)

If you were at Yaohan Plaza, you were close enough to my (old) manor for me to send the boys after you.

adam. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 21 October 2004 21:53 (twenty-one years ago)

it's not called the Yaohan plaza anymore (now it's the "oriental city".. same difference though)

ken c (ken c), Thursday, 21 October 2004 21:54 (twenty-one years ago)

That's right, Oriental City. but I'm old school Colindale. You wouldn't understand. I'll burn your oak if you edge any closer to my wares.

adam. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 21 October 2004 21:55 (twenty-one years ago)

oh i've been yaohan plazaing for a while though! (since 94??)

ken c (ken c), Thursday, 21 October 2004 21:56 (twenty-one years ago)

I REMEMBER WHEN IT WAS BEING BUILT

adam. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 21 October 2004 21:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Also I used to work just around the corner for a CRAPPY TV production company. I would spend my lunch "breaks" in the arcade.

adam. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 21 October 2004 21:58 (twenty-one years ago)

It will always be Yaohan to me too. Sega City, ooo-wee

beanz (beanz), Thursday, 21 October 2004 22:36 (twenty-one years ago)

Ken C, shouldn't you have posted this on the I Love Edgware board?

beanz (beanz), Thursday, 21 October 2004 22:36 (twenty-one years ago)

A missed opportunity in every respect.

adam. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 21 October 2004 22:38 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm really hoping the sign in the third pic says "Thank You Happy Shopping"!

Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 21 October 2004 22:42 (twenty-one years ago)

happy SHAGGING? SHITTING? SHOOTING?

Rob Bolton (Rob Bolton), Thursday, 21 October 2004 23:10 (twenty-one years ago)

i love edgware is no more, i think :( (it was considered as a veritable pale of festering turds)

ken c (ken c), Thursday, 21 October 2004 23:11 (twenty-one years ago)

Shindig?

Gravel Puzzleworth (Gregory Henry), Thursday, 21 October 2004 23:11 (twenty-one years ago)

shebang

ken c (ken c), Thursday, 21 October 2004 23:14 (twenty-one years ago)

tokyo, eh? suuuuuure. look that's all well and good, but it's no PACIFIC MALL (if you've been to the north end of toronto you know what i'm talking about). did you know that toronto's chinese population alone is over 400,000? it's true! your paltry UK 'asian' malls ('oriental' sounds wrong to me) are PWNED by toronto's. hell, check the census:

Toronto population:
Chinese 435,690
East Indian 345,855
Filipino 140,405
Japanese 20,085
Korean 43,110
Pakistani 43,035
Punjabi 20,480
Sri Lankan 45,240
Tamil 33,145
Vietnamese 45,105
Other Asian* 89,655

TOTAL ASIAN: 1,261,805

Rob Bolton (Rob Bolton), Thursday, 21 October 2004 23:27 (twenty-one years ago)

'oriental' sounds wrong to me, too.

battlin' green eyeshades (Homosexual II), Thursday, 21 October 2004 23:51 (twenty-one years ago)

coolie is better, IMHO

Remy (x Jeremy), Thursday, 21 October 2004 23:52 (twenty-one years ago)

Coolie High Harmony, ever moreso.

I'll burn your oak if you edge any closer to my wares.

who do you think you are, Colin?

Freelance Hiveminder (blueski), Friday, 22 October 2004 08:26 (twenty-one years ago)

It was fun. Marianna took a better picture of me with a bottle of Pocari Sweat water. I have a ton of soy sauce and a pretty MSG tin.

Also, holy crap, they had nice guavas for 30p each (!!!), one of which is sitting on my desk begging to be eaten.

Liz :x (Liz :x), Friday, 22 October 2004 08:29 (twenty-one years ago)

... and chu chu chu is the new chk chk chk (!!!)

marianna lcl (marianna lcl), Friday, 22 October 2004 08:32 (twenty-one years ago)

mmm - pocari sweat. The laksa looks TEH NUMMY

robster (robster), Friday, 22 October 2004 08:33 (twenty-one years ago)

Jarlr'mai (jarlrmai), Friday, 22 October 2004 08:42 (twenty-one years ago)

That place looks JUST LIKE this place in New Jersey that my brother and I used to go to. Scary.

Kissing Time At The Pleasure Unit (kate), Friday, 22 October 2004 08:44 (twenty-one years ago)

OMG, when did Marianna go blonde? (was it a long time ago and I'm very behind the times?) I like your scarf, doll.

Madchen (Madchen), Friday, 22 October 2004 08:58 (twenty-one years ago)

I wish I was in Tokyo.

B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Friday, 22 October 2004 09:12 (twenty-one years ago)

Rob Bolton (Rob Bolton), Friday, 22 October 2004 09:28 (twenty-one years ago)

OMG, when did Marianna go blonde? (was it a long time ago and I'm very behind the times?) I like your scarf, doll.

Laura H. (laurah), Monday, 7 February 2005 15:20 (twenty-one years ago)

You look MISERABLE there, Ken. And your flatmate looks as if hes just told a joke that pleased him.

I suspect the two are related.

roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Monday, 7 February 2005 15:46 (twenty-one years ago)

ken c (ken c), Monday, 7 February 2005 16:13 (twenty-one years ago)

OMG, when did Marianna go blonde?

I too am feeling the wuv for new blonde Marianna, witnessed the other day at Crimes Against Pop.

DV (dirtyvicar), Monday, 7 February 2005 17:16 (twenty-one years ago)

Damn! I forgot to pick up a posse of Harajuku Girls as accessories a la Gwen.

marianna lcl (marianna lcl), Saturday, 26 March 2005 10:02 (twenty years ago)

I forgot to give you props for your NKOTB apparel!

sgs (sgs), Saturday, 26 March 2005 21:57 (twenty years ago)

Yeah. Thursday was like NKOTB day in between the skirt, my workmate's t-shirt and Boybands Forever after I got home from Poptimism.

Deerninja B4rim4, Plus-Tech Whizz Kid (Barima), Sunday, 27 March 2005 17:32 (twenty years ago)

I forgot to ask about the last pic in the first entry: is that oyakudon? I used to like it but I think I ate it too many times. :-((((( It's quite easy to make.
