Last night, I gave a party for nine people (including my family of four).
Two low tables for six adults. The three children had their seats at the dining table.

This is the only Japanese-style room in my house.

I ordered nine plates of sashimi (lean tuna, adult yellow tail, and sweet shrimp).
刺身を9皿(マグロ赤身、ブリ、甘エビ)注文しました。
