So many new flavours of life here in Tokyo!

Loving the packaged boiled eggs! The perfect snack! and Green Tea flavoured ice cream

The ticket vending machine Ramen restaurants are amazing. You choose and pay for your ramen at the vending machine then pass your ticket to the chef!

or I just went to a restaurant where you choose your ingredients from a fridge then pass them to the chef -nice

and of course the plastic food just gets better and is actually really helpful as all menus are in japanese! luckily i’ve been taken to lots of restaurants by japanese friends who can order for me

Yumi ordered us Fish testicles which is salty and creamy!!?

Everything is packaged into tiny gifts: bananas, corn on the cobs, snacks…so everything becomes like a tiny ceremony.

My new Japanese saying is “hi”  it means “sure” in Japanese and you shrug your shoulders as you say it.
