So, in episode 4 of the live action adaptation of Hana Yori Dango, Tsukasa and Tsukushi have an extended argument in the rain in front of a big mansion-looking restaurant in Tokyo. For those of you unfamiliar with the basic plot of HYD, Tsukasa one of four rich high school kids and Makino is a poor common girl at their private high school.
The background area in the shots seemed very familiar. I realized that I actually ATE at this French restaurant when I visited in 2003. It was DIRTY EXPENSIVE. I don't remember a whole lot about the food, but I do remember that there were lots of greasy old men with stunningly attractive female dates my age. Golddigger central.
I had a picture taken from nearly the same spot they plopped their cameras down. Welp, that's my weird observation of the day.
