Hi everyone, i'm currently studying at Keio University located in Tokyo, walking distance from Mita station. I just wanted to share some information on oishi places i've been to, and some thoughts on my life in Japan. Hopefully my blog will help future exchange students in Japan to settle down faster than i did. :)

Mee's Pancake
ショコラショコラパンケーキ 980 YEN
We just stopped by this place to rest :(
After walking all day i feel like i can't even feel my legs anymore...
this place is located right across of top shelf.. just keep walking and you'll see it. It's on the same side as the "bills" building. I also noticed there's another Mee's Pancake located next to the matsumotokiyoshi [makeup chain store] across from shibuya eki, about two min walking distance from shibuya 109.

What i was trying to say was that upon walking in, you could tell the owner spent lots of thinking and effort into decorating the place.

we got the lunch for 1050 and 1050 yen each. It comes with two curry and unlimited "nam"? i hope i'm spelling it right. But the thing tasted delicious!

overall i thought this place was soso, it's on the 2nd floor and easy to miss. But if you ever need a place to rest, this place is probably your best choice. It's got AC/MUSIC/CHAIRS/FREE WATER. :) cheers!

izakaya
Went to a random Izakaya with a friend who came from US to visit me :). It was a super spontaneous trip, she literally just called me two days before she booked the ticket, and three days later she's here sitting next to me enjoying japanese food with me. I took pictures of the menu thinking that the name of the place would be on there, but it wasn't. Odd....
Anyhow, this was one of the cheaper izakayas located right next to harajuku JR exit. Loved the place, will probably come back if i'm around the area :)!

so, back on track ^^
ta da!!! The amount of creme they put on top of my tiny pancakes (4 to be exact) is insane! and YES just incase if you were wondering, the cream tasted really really really good. Not like the albertson supermarket whipped cream, this actually tasted like real whip cream ^^~
p.s. try stopping by this place at like 5 or 6pm, i went during 4pm and when i got out around 5 there weren't that many people in line.

Izakaya again :)
Our random Izakaya dates after Keio Kosmic meeting! My friend took me to this.. mm supposidly cheaper izakaya just right across from Keio University. As you can tell.. we had a great time :) It was all you can drink for two hours, and after we split the check.. it was about 2000 yen per person. Oh and that gooey weird looking stuff.. is actually some intestine that you're suppose to eat it with squid?! Apparently it's a japanese favorite.

サイゼリヤ
Oh man! can't believe i never went to Saizeriya until now!!!!!!!!! Saizeriya is super close to Keio university [mita campus], it's one of those cheap chain store italian restaurants. Look at the menu and just look at that price! If you're not in the mood of spending lots of money on food, you should definitely try this place :) However, my only complaint is that their portions are smaller than usual.. my friend had to order five dishes for dinner.. oh and a "large pasta" for dinner. But that's just us, and we just got out of our Yoga class.

location:
walking distance from Keio University, about five minutes. located at B2.

Just wanted to take some pictures of the interior. The whole time when i was eating i was literally staring at the people in line around the corner. It's not like i want to. It's more like they kept looking in so i had no choice but to look back at times.. and secretly feel bad for them because i know they have at least a good 20 or 15 minutes to go before they can enjoy their yummy omrice...
now.. the omrice. It is AMAZING in a way that it's so.. raw on the inside but so cooked on the outside. I got the タンポポオムライス 1950yen without knowing what 伊丹十三風 is.. turns out it was just ketchup.. Now here comes the exciting part....
you see..??gotta cut them slowly (it's sooo hardd to cut thru them because of the texture.. it's just way too soft ;/ )..
ta-da!! than you unfold them on top of your rice.
Thats the proper way of eating them.. according to the lady who worked there..
now this was my friends beef version....
obviously the only difference between the two was just that hers came with beef and beef stew sauce.. while mine just came with ketchup and had nothing in it...
