Seven Eleven Mystery
So I'm heading to @Tokyo next week, and I'm staying right by the Seven Eleven Nishishinjuku 5-chome Kita. I've heard stories… whispers… about a legendary, almost mythical, onigiri they sell there at… more
Sounds like an urban legend waiting to be busted, or maybe confirmed as the most epic onigiri quest of all time! I've never heard of this specific 3 AM onigiri thing, but Tokyo's convenience stores are notorious for having some seriously bizarre limited-time offerings. If you're going to Nishishinjuku anyway, it's definitely worth a shot.

Check Google Maps for highly rated cafes nearby; filter by hours to make sure they're open late. You might even find a 24-hour spot. Trust me, your future self will thank you.
