today is the 2nd day for me... gonna try the famous sushi dai where many bloggers, food tasters, n etc had announce its' greatness... i meet someone who went to tsukiji fish market and they told me that there's no crowd on weekday... >.> i forgot that i'm going on a Saturday.. yeah... big major mistake... which made me left my hotel abit later... then got lost by turning right instead of left... wasted about 10-15minutes before i managed to find the actual fish market that i'm suppose to go...
it's literally about 2-2.5hours wait...
well...happen to have 2 stars passing by or filming at tsukiji fish market... 1st was a male idol with a child idol but i didnt have the opportunity to snap the picture... then these 3 famous she-males starlets were at tsukiji fish marketing eating and also filming about how to choose vegetables... one of them actually won the ms.she-male international last year it seems... and were very popular stars in japan as well...
finally... it's my turn to eat after waiting for more than 2 hours... i ordered the JPY3900 set and this is a sea bream sushi
tuna belly or toro...
their miso soup
flounder sushi
inside the miso soup
sea urchin sushi
sushi rolls with toro and other stuffs...
steamed sweet egg roll... pretty big piece was given...
my last three sushi before i left the sushi dai
the young chef who serve me...
after a hearty breakfast or a last lunch since i only managed to eat around 12.30pm... i went to Akihabara after Tsukiji fish market...
just below the akihabara station is the famous gundam cafe ( something like maid cafe or butler cafe but this catered mostly to gundam fans out there... long queues beware and certain items are very limited... )
i went to visit the Tokyo Anime Center which is at UDX building which you can see right after you come out from Akihabara station... it's open everyday except monday...
the animes that they were promoting...
these are some souvenirs they were selling... but not within my budget range.. //(T0T)//
taito is the famous UFO catcher games, and if you look far right corner is the famous Animate!!!
ta-dah! most of your anime/manga goodies can be found here except of yaoi goodies it seems..
here's some of the figurine sold at Animate...
lots of pachinko centers can be found around tokyo... and pretty big as well...
here's the famous maid cafe as you can see one of the maid is trying to attract customer to go into the cafe...
after akihabara, i went to ameyayokocho street where it's famous for souvenirs and like a bit of pasar malam style...
green tea ice cream for 300yen...
while walking around ameyayokocho street, saw this takoyaki stall self-proclaim they were no.1 in that street... but not very nice... the flour was overpowering and the octopus were actually very little or cut into tiny pieces... i bought like 6pc for 300yen...
after ameyayokocho street, i walked around ueno park as it's just opposite of the station...
you can see alot of people going to ueno park for the zoo, national museum is there and many other stuffs to do as well...
after ueno, i go to tokyo tower to take wonderful scenery and of course visit one of japan's most iconic landmark...
a few small scale of tokyo tower around inside tokyo tower for u to admire... //(^0^)//
i was drinking green tea latte while waiting for the sky to darken so i can take night time scenery,,,
you can see mt.fuji at the back...
here's some of the tokyo tower souvenirs at the main observatory...
they were displaying the paradise kiss dress at one level below the main observatory...
at the exit, they were promoting this traditional japanese drama which is due to be starting soon...
this is the tokyo tower at night...
i bought these peaches at ameyayokocho street for 1000yen about 8pc...
bought these sweets from tokyo tower... they were actually sweets used for tea ceremony... =D about 80yen per pc...
