Satoshi had another tour coming up so he wanted to check out some areas, we started out at Nippori/Yanaka.

I've been wanting to try Nakanoya's tsukudani, so we purchased some.
 

100 grams of maguro (tuna) and 100 grams of asari (clams)..these are seasoned well, a little saltier than I am used to, still very tasty.
Love the packaging.
super huge bag in front of a bag shop in Yanaka.
cute cars near Hebimichi (snake street)
Matsuri items near Nezu Shrine

Tokyo People: matsuri preparations
Lunch was at a yakitori shop, Matsui
salad was included
yakitori don...the liver was a bit raw, but the other pieces, thigh, negima and tsukune were cooked well.

Satoshi chose their oyakodon

Portions seemed on the smaller side, still we're glad we got to try this place

Back to Kagurazaka Saryo...mont blanc tart with sencha ice cream
Tried Fukuka, a sencha from Kyoto...the waitress didn't hear me say "iced" so I was served this "hot"...oh well...just waited for it to cool before drinking.

it was another blazing day and Satoshi got to see all that he wanted to.

  2. cute street!
    Yesterday in Don Quijote Kaheka, there was a Japanese tourist who had a huge lump on his shoulder/back. I kinda wanted to ask him if he carries mikoshi but lucky I don't speak Japanese (in case it's offensive to ask).
