Day 2:
Today we woke up at 11.30am.. so late! tomikawa-san accompanied us to Shibuya cos he wanted to show us how to make our way to town. shibuya din seem like a nice place to shop at. i’m not exactly keen to check out the muji or uniqlo (japanese version of giordano) or Gap (heh ah hui loves these shops) cos the styles r so common. instead, i love weavin thru e small alleys & streets to check out tokyo’s street fashion.
only 1 shop caught my attn. it sells a variety of stuffs rangin frm nighties to very cute victorian umbrellas! oh did i say we’re into an umbrella-craze?? wahahaha. they’re all very nice n different frm those normal ones we see in S’pore! anyway there aint any mood to buy things so we ended up not buyin anythin. we also went to Shibuya 109. it’s like our bugis junction, with alot of small shops sellin Jap style clothes, which din really suit me n ah hui. They were blastin super loud Techno so me n ah Hui had no mood for anythin else except walkin thru e stores briskly.
Lunch was very good + super fun today though! we were at Okonomiyaki, a cook-ur-own-food style restaurant. the best thing.. it’s Teppanyaki style!! yippee!! never seen b4 in S’pore!! most of e real cookin was done by tomikawa-san; me n ah hui only did part of e tossin n scraping for fun + photo takin sake haha. one of e special thing we ordered was mochi wif fish roe, shrimps, cabbage etc. then u’ll use a mini scraper to scrape e Japanese muah chee n eat frm that. that was undoubtably new & fun to kampong me! wahahaha!
for dinner we had it at tengu () and hey, i thot szehan’s dad owns a tengu in S’pore that’s of e same concept?? it was another good Jap meal. well I guess Jap food will be good anywhere in Japan. oh n b4 dinner we bought some very nice strawberry & banana whipped cream crepe. this delicious crepe thing is now a big thing in Japan. we shld consider sellin this in S’pore.
my clothes now smell of e lunch we had today at okonomiyaki. yummy! we’re off to Osaka tmr mornin for Universal studios. Leng says it’ll be 9-17deg there. shucks man, i gotta put on my long johns since i left all my thick clothin all at home.
