Believe it or not, Iron Chef is one of the things that initially sparked my interest in Japan. Since it all began, I have taken three trips to visit Japan, the most recent being in September of this year. (If anyone is interested in seeing my pictures, let me know and I’ll throw up some links.) I now spend as much time (or more) listening to/watching Japanese music/TV/movies/etc. as I do with American entertainment on a typical day. And I have Iron Chef to thank (to blame? to thank!) for that.
Even though there is not much traffic here any more, I just couldn’t let the lights go out on our little slice of Kitchen Stadium. The site will celebrate its 10th anniversary this year. (The site went live Feb 1, 2008) And while I’m not willing to promise anything past this, the hosting bill has been paid for the next 12 months, through Nov 2018. (If you want to throw a few bucks toward covering the hosting/domain renewal bill, you are more than welcome to do so, but don’t feel bad if you don’t.)
I’m proud to have given this classic a home on the internet for the last 10 years and to be able to share it with fans from all over the world. I hope you still enjoy it.
