Nakamise dori avenue in Sensoji temple. The avenue is well decorated for the new years eve.

The iconic symbol of Tokyo, Sensoji is now fully prepared for the new year's prayer. It looks very beautiful and it is waiting for several hundred people for visiting the Temple in the new years eve.

Five storied pagoda fully prepared for new years prayer. This is from Sensoji temple, the famous iconic symbol of Tokyo.

Went to a soba restaurant in Akabane called "Zenmi Kotobuki" (禅味寿). I got the "天せいろ" (Ten Seiro "Tempura Soba Served on a Bamboo Wicker Tray" If I had to translate it literally I guess lol). Cost 1350 yen and it was 大盛サービス (free extra serving of noodles). And who am I to turn down free noodles? The choice was obvious and so I got the extra helping! I really liked the atmosphere of the place too. The waitresses were wearing Japanese-style clothing as well, which made it a really nice experience. I always enjoy visiting small shops like this where the owners have it decorated in their own style and you can see all of the bottles of sake or whatever else is used to create the atmosphere of the restaurant. Anyways, as for the food, the tempura was cooked really well and the soba was the perfect texture. At the end of the meal they brought some hot soba water so I could drink the remaining tsuyu (soba sauce) as a sort of warm drink. Was a great experience that I haven't had in a while!

Christmas day special Tokyo Tower illumination.

Like I mentioned yesterday, I went to "Tokyo Portcity Takeshiba" over the weekend and there were a ton of restaurants. The one that I chose to eat at was a tough choice, but I ultimately settled on "Do Miso Tokyo Portcity Takeshiba" (ど・みそ 東京ポートシティ竹芝店), but there was also an Okinawan-themed restaurant right next to it called "Okinawa Bar Kafu" (沖縄酒場 かふー) that looked really nice as well, and smelled good. Either way from across the isle I got to eat some delicious ramen while listening to the Okinawan music which was really relaxing and created a nice atmosphere. I'm not sure what the ramen I got was called it was just the normal miso ramen from my understanding and I believe it cost ¥1100. There's another one that looks similar, has a similar name, and costs ¥1200 but that's a white miso ramen and not the one that I got. Either way, I'm sure it tastes good as well, because my ramen tasted great! I really liked that the restaurant had metal cups as well, it gives the water a different flavor and always makes it feel more refreshing too (in my opinion at least). One thing I forgot to mention about the building; if you open up their website, another futuristic feature you'll find is that the building actually shows the number of people in the building at any one time and also shows that percentage of male and female visitors. I thought this was really amazing. I'm not sure how it's done, but they must have censors located at the doors or in other places around the building that can analyze body structure or something similar. Either way it's a cool place!

Lets enjoy the beauty of Marunouchi illumination. Here everyone was busy to enjoy the illumination.

Went to Takeshiba over the weekend and visited "Tokyo Portcity Takeshiba" I was in the area for other reasons, but just happened to stop by because the building looked interesting. Turns out I was right! The inside of the building had a bunch of really nice shops and was showing a futuristic VR robot being used to stock shelves in a convenience store. I didn't stick around to read everything that was being shown on the screen but this photo seems to be saying how they've created a VR system where users won't feel VR sickness, which I'd actually not heard about before, but it seems to happen after long periods of VR use and is similar to motion sickness I guess. The other photo looks like a simple picture of a sink but it actually has another really cool futuristic feature. The little slot on the right can actually disinfect your phone using UV. I couldn't take a photo of the actual process since I only had one phone but I tried it out and it was really neat. You just remove your case or anything else you have attached to your phone and pop it in and wash your hands. Takes like 30 seconds, about how long it should take to wash your hands, so it's a really convenient feature. Cool place though, I definitely recommend paying it a visit!

The beautiful winter illumination in Tokyo Station.

Went to Ootoya again and ordered something new. The dish used to come with meatballs if I remember correctly but it seems they changed it to fried chicken. Goes much better with the meal in my opinion and the grated radish over the top of it was a nice touch. I also really liked the pumpkin croquettes, I'm used to just normal croquette's (I'm not even sure what they're filled with), but this was a nice change of pace and was kind of refreshing, probably because it felt very healthy lol. As always all of the side items tasted great and it was all only ¥740, so pretty much a steal if you ask me

Went to a place in Nihonbashi called Hakata Dojo (博多道場) and had a really nice lunch. It's like an izakaya but it had a really nice lunchtime atmosphere as well. I ordered the 日替わり肉ランチ which cost about ¥1000 but it tasted great. I really liked the moyashi that came with the beef plate, lots of flavor and the moyashi were really juicy as well so that was nice. It was a really nice place overall, I'd like to go back and see what it's like at night, maybe they have some special courses or something as well. I really liked the lanterns though, I think that's probably what contributed most to the place having a nice atmosphere. That and it wasn't exceptionally loud like some izakaya I've been to. Also the interior was decorated quite nicely as well, besides the lanterns.

六本木散歩

週末に八王子に行き、その地域を探索する爆発がありました。武蔵皇陵(大正天皇と昭和天皇の埋葬地)をチェックし、レストラン「ゴンスケ」(おんすけ)や他のたくさんの食べ物を食べることができました。 武蔵の皇室はすごくすごくすごく、森を通る砂利道の広い明治神宮を思い出させてくれましたが、この森は自然で人工的ではないと感じています。 また、古墳は本当に伝統的に見え、古墳時代の古墳を思い出しました。 ゴンスケというレストランはすごく素晴らしい。 彼らはさまざまなコースメニューのすべての種類を持っていたし、それはあまりにもイノシシ肉を試して初めてだった笑. 私は長い間ゲーム肉を持っていなかったので、もう一度試してみて、実際の石炭でイロリ(私はそれがイロリだと思います)の上でそれを調理することは本当にクールでした。戻って、より多くの地域を探索するのを待つことができません。 高尾山をハイキングして、その地域が提供する他のすべてを見たいと思います。美しい街

クリスマスの間に美しく照らされた虹の橋。写真は東京タワーから撮影しました。

先日日本橋で買い物をしていて、このアカベコを見て、本当に可愛いと思ったので、写真を撮ることにしました。 名前は私にも非常に面白かったです。通常の「アカベコ」の代わりに、これは基本的に「ネムベコ」または「疲れたべこ」であり、通常の広く開いた目の代わりに目が実際に半分閉じている様子を見ることができ、疲れた表情を笑せます。 日本の伝統工芸品が大好きで、特にアカベコが大好きで、アカベコの体験をしてみたいと思っていました。私は、アカベコのワークショップを試してみて、本当に楽しい時間を過ごしている人々の別の場所でいくつかの記事を読んだ。 私は子供の頃からパピエマチェを使っていないので、おそらくノスタルジックな経験になるでしょう。 もし私がアカベコのワークショップをやったら、私も「ねむぶいこ」を作ろうと思う笑

雪の日の集団登校。カラフルな雨具が雪景色に映えていました。

正月の浅草仲見世。毎年、沢山の初詣客で賑わいます

初雪の降った公園に冬の朝日が差し込んで、木々の長い影がとても美しかったです。

サイザーヤに立ち寄って昼食をとり、タラとエビのドリア(タラはリアを作る)を手に入れた。 サイザーヤは、一般的に迅速かつ安価なので、昼食のために立ち寄るのに最適な場所です。 定食だったので、スープとサラダも付いてきたのですが、写真を撮り忘れてしまいました。 スープはコンソメスープのようなもので、特別なものではありませんでしたが、おいしくて飲み物がなかったので、とても素敵でした。私はそれのいくつかのカップを得ることになった。 エビとタラのドリアは素晴らしかったし、私は上の海苔が大好きです - 豊富で素晴らしい味。 一番の部分は、このすべては500円だったので、サイザーヤに期待するように、それは本当に合理的です。 ただ、私は今日これを共有すると思った、あまりにも特別なものは何もない

Was in Kanda the other day for an errand and stopped by this place called "Soba Dokoro Kameya" (そば処 かめや) outside of Kanda Station. It says "立食い" which means "standing noodles," but I didn't actually see any places to stand and eat so maybe it just meant that it was simple and quick like a standing noodle shop. I've never actually experienced what it's like to eat at a standing noodle restaurant (and actually stand while eating) but I think I prefer sitting anyways. I like to relax when I eat so I suppose that's why, but I should at least try it once, who knows, I might like it. Anyways, the place seems really affordable. I ordered the Ten Tama Soba since it was the most popular dish and it tasted great. The soup was really good and the egg was perfectly cooked. The texture of the noodles was also perfect. It's definitely a place to check out if your in the Kanda area and looking for some noodles. I think they may only be open during the morning and night, but I went around 4pm so maybe they close around that time to prepare for dinner.
