YOKOSO JAPAN !!!

I never thought that I would be going to Japan so early. It had always been far long in my travel queue lists. But it had jumped to the top of the queue when I my company send me to a business trip doing implementation in Japan and the best thing is I got a chance to stay there for about 3 weeks!! Living a life like Japanese for a short while…I had been nodding my head all the while as that is part of their culture. Sometimes is funny when we don’t understand each other as if chickens & ducks were talking. Most of it works by having body language and numbers. Japanese don’t speak English very well and you will be very happy when you found some which could speak English. Every time we walked around the restaurants, we are excited when we see those food

presented such a way. FOOD !! FOOD !! My favorite tempura is everywhere!! This is good for us where else for those restaurant which has only words, eeewww….we had no idea what it was. So far, the cheapest restaurant I found give me ¥290 ( which equivalent to around RM10). Though it is cheap, but still nice..just a bit plain. It comes with free salad as well on your next visit. All this you have to purchase a ticket through a vending machine first.

Even the cigarettes can be purchased through vending machine. I am so tempted to buy but to bad it comes with age validation whereby it requires your local ID for verification.
Some tasty ice-cream !!

We visited their temple and found… these cute little one..
And back to food, just point…don’t need to speak.
End up we get extra charge for not asking. Some of the restaurant or café have table charge or what they called it ‘person charge’. ¥250 per person and we are bitching all the way back to hotel.

Found some other cheaper stuff without ‘person charge’. This is quite nice, somewhere near to Shinjuku town.
Dunno what happened to the Pooh.

Located at Tsujiki, people are crazy for sashimi. Quite pricey, priced at ¥3000 per set.
There are quite number of adult shops, but I don’t get the chance to take a look. There was one I went in but they do the ultraman ‘X’ sign to me saying ‘Japanese only’. Too bad.
Toy machine…it is like saying “ I am so cute, please grab me..pls pls”
Lots of people trying to get it but it were not easy. ¥100 per try. So damn tempting!
Takashimaya…inside is very nice. Lots of Japanese snacks too !! even some free food to try…haha
