I've heard of Cherry Blossoms before, but never "Kiku" flowers. I'm actually quite curious. Maybe I'll go and drag my girlfriend along (... although, I'm sure I won't need to twist her arm too much).
Can I go with you and your girlfriend?
Aw, why not? It'll be fun.
No, I think this is something that should be shared between the two of us and not with some guy called, Weird Al. Sorry!
I heard that Japanese eat Kiku.
Is it true?
does any of the restaurant in NY serve Kiku in a dish or is it like a japanese local culture thing like eating crickets? weird, or should i say peculiar...
