Aren’t these yummy homes Adorable? They are currently on display in the main area of the Yurakucho (Ginza) Muji store. The best part is, you can purchase kits to create your own. They have so many goodies to customize your house and they smell so good… it’s definitely worth a look :) Happy Holidays!
PS: The last photo is not from the muji store.

This is a follow-up post from the Gontran Cherrier Tokyo Bakery one. The Gontran Cherrier Tokyo has a restaurant cafe on the 2nd floor and I recently visited to have a light meal there since we were hungry at a weird time of the day. We ordered the salad plate (1000yen), onion soup (780yen), and soup of the day which was a carrot potage (680yen). Everything was just OK compared to their 1F bakery where all their baked goods were absolutely great. I would recommend going to the bakery over the cafe, but if you want a nice and quiet area to tea or relax, then I suggest the 2F.

GONTRAN CHERRIER TOKYO recently opened (at the end of August) in one of the most convenient locations just one minute from Shibuya station and it’s one of my favorite bakery cafe/restaurants that I’ve been to recently. I loved everything about it – from the style of pastries they served, to the cute french ambiance of the store. I’ve liked everything I’ve tried so far from this place and the ease of access is just unbeatable! The bakery also has seating on the 1F so you can eat your pastry’s/baked goods there as well.
PS: I also dined at the second floor cafe/restaurant so I will post about that next.

We recently gathered together some friends to have an American-style Thanksgiving dinner party here in Japan and we had a lovely get together. We each brought a few things and it worked out quite amazingly. Hope these photos can tell how good the food was ;) To those who celebrate Thanksgiving, hope you had a great one with your friends, family, and loved ones.

What a treat. Shouraian is located in Arashiyama, Kyoto, where the beautiful bamboo forest and the famous Togetsukyo (渡月橋) “Moon Crossing Bridge” are located.
Shoraian, a restaurant that specializes in Tofu cusine (豆腐懐石) is tucked away in the middle of the mountain and a little bit difficult to find, but it is worth the journey and every penny of the price. Beyond the precise detail of the presentation of Japanese cusine, the location and intimate beauty of the surroundings are unbeatable. The fact that you get to dine right next to the river overlooking the lush and colorful mountain makes this the ultimate Japanese dining experience in Kyoto. We ordered the 3800yen Matsuba lunch course and everything was absolutely delicious… it’s really amazing how much they can do with tofu!
This place is by reservation only so make sure you call in advance to reserve a spot.
