Here we are again. My favorite place for breakfast in Tokyo, Hoshino Coffee, doesn’t open until 9am so we went to Berg, a tiny little store we’ve been to before. The food is good, the owner is quite liberal (judging by the signs promoting peace in Palestine and allowing women a quiet place to have a beer) and it’s pretty good. It’s also quite cheap, less than ¥700 for either of these plates and coffee.
Sorry to disturb you but here’s a ridiculous picture of me.
We met my sister’s friend Jen for lunch and it was such a nice day that we walked around Tokyo for a while to get there. We visited my favorite shrine in Tokyo, Kanda Myojin, which turns out is near where Jen works. We met near Tokyo station, though.
We had kushiyaki but very fancy kushiyaki. The fried shrimp wrapped in shiso, negi with chicken, and I think green peppers were only the start of nine or so skewers. I didn’t take a picture of the soup or the dessert nor do I remember exactly what they were but it was excellent.
After lunch we wandered around central Tokyo for a while and here’s another picture of us in windy (and chilly) Tokyo.
We met another old friend for dinner and we went back to Keio Department store to a tofu restaurant. My dinner doesn’t show my yudofu because I already ate it and it’s kind of boring visually. It was in hot water, in a hot kettle, on that wooden plate.
My sister’s tofu was simmered in soy milk and was probably as bland as mine was. The skewers were good, tofu topped with yuzu miso and black miso.
We got back around 9, and that’s why the comments are short. It’s bedtime now! (It takes me a while to upload and post these pictures.)
