Haneda Airport Garden was all set to open back in 2020 and then the pandemic hit...it finally got to open in January 2023 and we finally got to check it out this past Saturday.
Sensory overload wherever you walk with these huge screens
Souvenir shops from all over Japan.
Food shops from all over Japan too.
We tried an Osaka-style okonomiyaki place called Pachi Pachi.
The salad that comes with lunch, we think it was avocado mixed with potato salad because it tasted kinda like it but it looked gross
photo uploaded wonky...there was samurai armour in front of the Hotel Villa Fontaine
Daily okonomiyaki, beef tendon...1500 yen (tax included)
Was kinda small and thin, not fluffy like okonomiyaki we've had in the past
Our lunches also came with a cup of miso soup (no photo)
Yakisoba set....1300 yen (tax included)
The noodles were a bit thick and the sauce was too sweet.
Very “loud” interior of Okonomiyaki Pachi Pachi
Kurazukuri Honpo had this huge sugar art display, the bird and flowers looked real!
Satoshi and I shared this matcha tea soda from Kimikura...700 yen (tax included)
They whisk the matcha before serving, so it takes some time.
The orange soda at the bottom mixed with the matcha was super refreshing.
If you'd like to see a short video of them pouring the matcha onto the soda, please look
here.
I'm glad we got to check out this area and hope it will do well with all the tourists from overseas and other prefectures of Japan
Haneda Airport Garden
connected to Terminal 3 Haneda Airport
Open daily: 10:00-20:00
Thanks for the tour!
ReplyDeleteSad that the okonomiyaki and yakisoba not up to par. Avocado in potato salad doesn't sound good

Is this Haneda Gerden inside the secured checkpoint or available for anyone to browse, shop and at? Also, is terminal 3 where Hawaiian Airlines is??
ReplyDeleteV, the avo potato salad is pretty good when it doesn't look brownish.
ReplyDeleteJ, this is outside the security so anyone can go. Not sure if Terminal 3 is where Hawaiian Airlines is. Back in 2020, Haneda changed Terminal 3 to house most International Airlines
Take care you two.
