While we were in Japan this past winter, we heard buzz around this donut place with a funny name, “I’m donut ?” yes, I am curious too. They have several locations, and seems like all of those locations get a long line of eager customers. And, they do sell out if you go too late. […]
Before we headed to Japan, I saw some amazing donuts on SNS, and I had to find out where I can get some! It was from Park Store, a part of Cafe The Sun Lives Here group. I got curious about the group, and found out that they also have a cafe and what they […]
We love Japanese curry (or most any curry, really), and we found a really cool spot to go after having a morning dessert at Kooriya Peace. It is located inside one of those large shopping streets, a little hidden away from all the loud advertisement everywhere. That is one of the reasons why we wanted […]
Since we visited this spot, a half year has past… but then again, this is such a great spot to visit during the hot summer months, so it all works out better, maybe? Kooriya Peace is a spot that specializes in Shaved Ice, all year long. Yes, even in the winter! We went there to […]
Mr. Kamiya opened its door in 1880 as the first “Bar” in Japan. They are famous for their history, and their special cocktail called “Denki-Bran” in the iconic cocktail glass. It is so cool that the oldest bar in Japan still exists, at the same location! They have a show window with their food and […]
While we were in Japan during the winter, we spend a day in Asakusa. After having a small-ish breakfast at Misojyu and walked around the vibrant streets of Asakusa, we were ready for some brunch-type food. We went during an off-season and off peak-time, so there was no line. Depending on the time and season, […]
While we were in Japan during the past winter, we decided to go to Asakusa area for a day. I found this interesting spot called MISOJYU, focused on Miso Soup, and wanted to go there for breakfast. Unfortunately, the main Asakusa location was closed for the holidays, and have not yet reopened for the year […]
While we were in Tokyo, we wanted to go to interesting places to eat. After walking over to the spot I wanted to try, and finding out that they have not yet opened for the year, we had to go find another restaurant nearby. That is the challenge for when traveling at the end of […]
The last tasty spot my gourmet sister took us to was a fun dinner spot called Tsukishima Monja Moheji. People nowadays might know one of the traditional Japanese comfort food, Okonomiyaki. We can get them in NYC too, from a spot like DokoDemo. Monja is similar, but it is not solid as okonomiyaki. You will […]
We went back to Japan once again during the winter, and yes, we had loads of great food. The first spot we went was Gyukatsu Motomura in Tokyo. They have many locations throughout Japan, and we went to the one located in Akihabara. It was interesting to see the Akihabara today, and yes, it is […]
