A new news article has been posted!
The official Pokémon movie blog has updated. We have added a Scouting Report page and will update it with the translations as they are posted on the official blog. Translations of the new entry follows:
We finished our trip to the museum just in time for lunch.
Since we had just been looking at a historic townscape, we decided to get some traditional UAE cuisine, "Emirati food".
As we entered the restaurant, we were shown to the ventilated second floor and into a room where a carpet was spread out across the floor.
A man dressed in a white outfit called a "kandura" and a woman dressed in a black outfit called an "abaya" were acting as our waiters.
First of all, we were given arabic coffee decocted with saffron, served in small cups resembling sake cups.
We also got dried dates to go with it.
Serving coffee in these small cups sends the message of "drink as much as you want".
When we had drunk the coffee in the cup, we could hold it out, and the male waiter would refill it for us as many times as we wanted.
This is a traditional expression of welcoming shown to travelers who had come through the desert.
The main dishes we were served were curry, spiced chicken and fish cooked with rice, etc.
For dessert, we had pastries cooked in oil that resembled holeless donuts.
Hoopa would've probably enjoyed these!
UAE cuisine consists of rice, curry and such mixed together, and the authentic Arabian way is to eat it with your hands.
Of course, the scouting team were up for that challenge!
I see, this did indeed give the meal a intimate feel, and it tasted absoutely delicious!
...
After the meal, we sat down to tak for a bit.
When we told our female waiter we were there to scout for the Pokémon movie, she told us that she used to watch the Pokémon anime as a kid!
This sure was an unexpected surprise in a faraway country like this!
Excited, one of the team members decided to give her some roasted green tea they had brought along.
A glass of cold water was produced and the tea was added to it and served to her with the words "This is Japanese tea".
Apparently ice tea isn't very common to drink in Arabia, so this moment held an unexpected surprise to both us and her!
Once she tried the tea, she thought it tasted delicious!
