My first stop was to buy some bagels from Tecona Bagel Works.
The shop is teeny and they only allow 4 people in at one time.
I also purchased their carrot cake.
The numbing pepper didn’t match too well with wine but overall was tasty after I toasted it.
The carrot cake was more like carrot bread and was moist and delicious.)
From Tecona, I walked back to Shibuya to have lunch at Usagi.
During the pandemic, they moved from their original space to a smaller space.
After being seated I had to use a QR code to order…I had thought they had taco rice on their Friday lunch menu but didn’t, so I ended up choosing their roast beef bowl…and then I waited almost 30 minutes for my lunch to come out!
um, if you just had to take it out of the refridge, I think I could have been served sooner…
I think their menu has changed during the pandemic because a lot of items I had previously seen on their website is no longer there...
Not sure I’ll be back but I’m glad I tried this place.
4 story shopping complex, restaurants and a large park on the roof that runs alongside of the Yamanote train line.
Beside the park, there is also a beach volleyball court, skateboard area and rock climbing area.

oooooh, cheese with szechuan pepper bagel?! I must keep that in mind when I head back to my f-i-l's; next month on the 11th is have a bagel day ^-^
ReplyDeleteI was interested in the cheese and szechuan pepper bagel. Must have been supper spicy. Beer would have gone better?
ReplyDeleteSadly, haven't been to the Miyashita Park because of travel restrictions but really hoping to see it. The weather looked gorgeous. They had so many barricades and construction walls up last time I went almost 3 years ago!
They should have advertised the roast beef as a cold cut dish. and 30 minutes? I feel there are a couple of popular Japanese restaurants that take more than 20 minutes to get your order here so was trying to decide if it was to prove everything was made to order, but cold roast beef would have really irked me.

Rowena, the szechuan pepper was mixed with cheese in the middle and more cheese on top when baked!
ReplyDeleteV, hoping we can all travel abroad soon!
Take care you two.
