I am sooo keen to try the K queens I hear so much about, but I have this idea in my head to work up to them to not set the standard too high too soon.
She also told me in the chitchat phase that she's half-Japanese and is flying back to Japan soon. So maybe she's just warming up to go full nihongo when she's back.
I'm sure the guys know their business really well, and I wouldn't be surprised if the vast majority of visitors are one-timers only. So given that they don't know me at all, there's probably more incentive to help the girls out then to help me out. Probably should've just stuck to my personal research; getting recommendations probably only works well once your a recognised regular like Jack-Jack.
