Lunch @ Jiyugaoka

I went out for Saturday lunch in Jiyugaoka which is one of fancy places in Tokyo.










My friend is so resourceful when it comes to eating so I just follow her whenever we meet up.

We went to Lobros for lunch and I had a french toast with blue berry & cream cheese plate.












By the way , the note which placed out side of the door was a little funny, so I took that picture, as well.
'No buggies more than three.'










We saw many small kids with their mothers in this restaurant.
It's a little different scene from the central Tokyo such as Omotesando or Yurakucho.
This is more residential district but for a very rich family!

Then we were heading to a cake shop named 'Mont St Clair' which is often seen in TV, according to my friend, and we bought some peace of cakes. We couldn't get seats there because of a white day.

It is an event relates Valentin's day in Japan.

Women give chocolates to men on Valentin's day and men give something back to women one month later which called 'White day'.



Cake shops are very busy in February and March.

My choices are Mont St Clair & Caramel Poire. Looks good, aren't they?










We gave up sitting there and went back to the Station and had a coffee at 'San Francisco Cable Car Coffee'.

It's a casual style coffee shop that you can visit by yourself.


We talked about work, people, fortune-telling and some philosophies.

It's a sunny & peaceful day :)

I was wondering about the chocolate

I like your way of doing it. Here it might be more like you are forced to give something more than maybe you want to.

Do most women when they like a man do it anonymously or how does that go?

It's more like flirting that our Valentines Day. More fun your way.

Hiking @ Mt. Fuji

Pictures of Mt. Fuji where one of spiritual places in Japan. You can drive to halfway up the mountain. It's about two hours hiking course from there. Many people like to try climbing up Mt. Fuji. It's a popular way that people spend a night at a co ttage and start around 2am to see sun rise at the top, however I have never tried it. R einforcement work is under way as mountain slope is sliding down. I didn't make any effort, instead I just felt autumn there. It was a clear day after rainy days that took off orange osmanthus petals. Fujisan with rainbow Rain cleanses us and brings next season.

Edo Sushi Sasaki

Sushi Sasaki @ Ginza People in Edo started to have Sushi and a restaurant started using fresh fish. 'Edo' means old Tokyo during from the 17th to 19th centuries where used to be a city of Samurai, and Osaka is for merchant at the time. Uni (Sea urchin) And NOW, Sushi chef in Osaka cut up a fish from stomach but chef in Tokyo do it from back. Because Harakiri (commit ritual suicide by disembowelment) is avoidable for Samurai, and Hara wo waru ('Breaking stomach' means heart to heart talk) is high end spirit for merchant. That's what the chef at Sasaki talked ^^. Sake Ebi (Prawn) Toro (Fatty Tuna) Anago (Conger) Uni (Sea urchin)

Folding Keyboard Ryudo

Today is Aquarius new moon. Write down 10 wishes on the paper or note. Handwriting is key. This is folding keyboard, the maker is Ryudo. I was interested, but hadn't had long years. Because I have laptop. But we don't bring computers daily, do we? So I started to think, if I had that, I might write more often... Before buying it, I investigated which keyboard was the best as there were so many kinds. First of all, It has to be light, otherwise, it will stay at home. And thought of the place where I mostly would use... it would be on a train, not a cafe as I commute long hours every day. So it has to be small and quiet.  I don't want to bother others. If I use a keyboard on my bag when I seat, my iPhone needs to place to stand, Ryudo is compact, ideal typing and has a stand. It's not very strong but enough to hold my iPhone 7 plus. One thing I cared was that Ryudo was battery powered not chargeable. So I looked over all ot...
