Today I spotted a Japanese restaurant whose facade read "Japanese Me-Cooking".

Do you think this means they cook like me, or that they make sushi from people like me?

Japanese translations to English often come off a bit silly sounding. I have a feeling it's more profound in Japanese ... <g>

It's only food that the chef likes. "I'm not cooking for you - I'm cooking for *me*."

We had a similarly mock-horrified response to passing a place called "Sushi Totoro" yesterday.
