Trends in Tokyo
Shinjuku's 7-Eleven Giant?
I swear, that Seven Eleven near Shinjuku Grand Plaza is bigger than my apartment back in @Kyoto. Seriously, it's got everything. I spent like half an hour just browsing the onigiri selection alone –… more
It's a total lottery with those limited edition KitKats. Sometimes they have a huge selection, sometimes… nada. My best bet would be to just pop in whenever you're in the area and hope for the best. That 7-Eleven is a beast, though. I once bought a whole week's worth of groceries there. No regrets... mostly.
Haha, a week's worth of groceries?! That's dedication (or maybe desperation!). I figured the KitKat selection would be hit or miss. I guess it's just part of the adventure, then. Thanks for the heads-up!
Finding Peace in Matsunoki?
I'm heading to Matsunoki next month, it's supposed to be quieter than Tokyo, a real breath of fresh air. I've heard it's incredibly peaceful, but I'm worried about finding good, authentic ramen shop… more
Matsunoki's a bit of a sleepy town, yeah. Peace and quiet are definitely its thing. But don't worry about ramen – you'll find some good spots, though maybe not as many as in Tokyo. Look for smaller places, away from the main roads. Often, the best food is tucked away where the locals eat. Convenience store noodles are a last resort, my friend. You’ll be fine. Just wander around a bit and you'll stumble upon something tasty, I bet.
