Wel- come to Dohatsuten, where they may not know your name, but you’ll get a greeting, a thank you and any explanation you need. Another thing not to worry about: Dohatsuten’s menu is not carved into arcane specialties. It’s all about finding something you like. If you don’t like cold seared white tuna you might like fried chicken or a soul-warming noodle soup. Your favorite dish could very well be yakimeshi: rice cooked in an iron pot so that it acquires a fabulous crust, sort of an in- ner bowl that you break up and stir into the rest of the sticky rice and whatever toppings you’ve selected, from pickled mustard leaf to grilled eel. At Dohatsuten they give you two metal spoons Dohatsuten’s signature ramen features spicy garlic pork, shredded with which to scrape the sides — chili, kurobata chasu pork, stewed taro pork, cabbage, carrots, which you will want to do. green onions, chives, bean sprouts, nori and egg.

Two squads won consolation champion- ships in local tournaments while the Eastside Prep girls wound up fourth in the 16-team Coaches vs. Cancer Classic that finished up Tuesday night in East Palo Alto. The host Panthers (8-4) dropped a tough 42- 37 decision to state-ranked Mitty in the third-place game, despite playing with only five players. Chacitty Cunningham had a season-high 14 points for Eastside Prep with 6-foot-3 Destiny Graham adding 10. The Panthers led after one quarter, 12-9, trailed at the half (24-22) and got within three points before missing on a three-point attempt with under 20 seconds to play. The Men- lo-Atherton and Menlo School girls, meanwhile, continued their prepa- rations for the upcoming league basketball seasons by capturing consolation titles in tournaments that concluded on Monday. Menlo- Atherton rallied to defeat Evergreen Valley, 58-55, in the consolation fi- Ê/``ÉÃ« ÌÃ°V nals of the Newark Memorial tournament in Fremont and Menlo posted a 53-45 win over Luther Burbank of Sacramento in the consolation finals of the Steve Geramoni Invitational at Notre Dame-Belmont.
