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 […]
This is another cool place my gourmet sister took us for some traditional sweets. Takemura was founded in 1930, survived the war and all! It is one of the Tokyo’s “Select Historic Building” which I can totally understand. According to the information from their website, they “started their business since there was no authentic shiruko-ya, […]
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 […]
I know, you are wondering why I am writing about the place that is now closed since we visited in January 2023? Well, they still have shops, pop up stores, markets, and park. You never know when they re-open the Moomin Cafe again! (Hoping and wishing bigtime here). We made it to the Solamachi location […]
When we went to get some adorable Totoro cream puffs from Shiro-Hige’s Cream Puff Factory, we had to find a lunch spot, since the cafe at the Cream Puff Factory was full with a long wait. We walked around, looking at all the options, until we found this spot with enticing photos of hamburg steaks […]
One of the places we missed visiting the last time we were in Japan was Shiro-Hige’s Cream Puff Factory. This time, we made sure to visit for some adorable cream puffs! If you are a huge Ghibli fan like us, you really must have their cream puffs, shaped in Totoro! They now have two locations, […]
I just realized that I missed the first spot that my gourmet sister took us on the fun outing day in Tokyo! Since it was such an epic spot, I had to make sure to write about them. It is called Kajitsuen Libre, also known as Kajitsuen Fruit Parlor. My sister told us about how […]
On the way home to my parents’ home from Harajuku are, we tried to look for something tasty that we can bring back with us for dinner. We looked at some places, but then, the choice of food didn’t feel like they will travel well on the train ride… But then, I remember seeing this […]
After a day full of delicious eats with my gourmet sister, I casually mentioned to her that we haven’t decided where to go for breakfast the next morning. She sent me her recommendation, and of course we trusted her 100%. So, when we got up, we went looking for this spot called Junkissa PanEsu. We […]
On the day we spent with my gourmet sister in Tokyo, she took us to a really interesting place called Tofu Shokudo. We like tofu, as it is tasty, healthy, and has lots of benefits as well. Rich in high quality protein, vitamins, and dietary fiber. Tofu Shokudo is unique in a sense that they […]
