銀座木村屋



second floor cafe:) People usually come here for their bread on the first floor, little did they know that there's actually a cafe on the 2nd floor. It's small and easy to miss, located on the left side of the bakery. I only came here because my legs were tired, probably wouldn't have dined there if i had other choice. They don't have much sweets for you to choose from, menu was composed of some sweets and sandwiches only.

Cafe Banyan


 got american style omlete :O


 extrememess
I'm not saying the food is a mess, it's just called extreme mess. Turn's out it's just a hawaiian dish. .with meat/egg/vege on top of a bunch of rice.
 Finally, their famous French Toast.
I finally realized why most bloggers said their french toast tasted different. Little did i know that the portions were SO HUGE, or else i'd probably just order one and share with my friend. Their french toast is thicker than the usual french toasts, with creme cheese in the middle. We got chocolate and strawberry flavored french toast.. YUMM



 the best part of todays meal was that..
EVERYTHING WAS HALF OFF!!
haha.. i purposely marked my calendar for this day, because i saw their half off advertisement on tabelog :).

青山フラワーマーケット ティーハウス

AWWW~ from the moment i walked in i couldn't help but feel like i'm a princess in some random disneyland movie. I'm surrounded by flowers, ikemen's.. etc.. jk :) haha. What i was trying to say was that this place is probably the best place for girls to go on dates if they love flowers! It's small, a bit hard to find, but it's not that far away from the station. At first i was a bit lost, because i didn't think that there would be a cafe located inside a flower shop. But here it was :).
I have to say i was a bit surprised that they use Le Cruset pots for pastas.. and my french toast.. it was.. so .. YUMMMM~





 Basically tables were see-thru style, it really makes you feel like you're at a tree house.. except a clean one without ants/flies etc. Definitely brining my mom over some time if she comes to visit <3!

新宿中村屋 カレー


 Hands down to the best indian curry ever :) The only downside of this place is that it's a bit more expensive than regular curry places. It's located inside the GUCCI building, on the 4th floor(?).

 After that i went for moviessssss
my very very first 3D movie experience in Japan!!
Captain Americaaaaa <3<3<3<3
In Japan you can buy tickets online, and get them from machines placed in the movie theatre. The most convenient way for gaijins or people who don't speak Japanese to buy tickets :):). One thing i realized while watching the movie was that everyone is extremely polite. In other countries such as HK/US/Taiwan, when the movie ends people usually just leave. But in Japan they actually sit and wait until the end of the movie, after all the names of those who contributed to the movie have been played, and leave. Very interesting.

よーじや 

street view@ Harajuku station
 Our mini harajuku adventure started with these masked up guys driving past us near the harajuku station! It's my very first time bumping into these dudes and according to my japanese friends, harajuku is actually famous for having those masked bikers around! so lucky me :)
However, the cafe i went to today is actually located at shibuya, called yogiya. This place is supposedly famous for the.. mmm face? some goddess from kyoto? I'm not exactly sure. But overall i found this place to be too pricey ( desserts were small), and not oishi at all. Don't think i will come back to this place ever.

Cafe De la ville, EWW : /

 This place is located across from the new hot thing in tokyo, IVORY french toast place. I found this place from those tv recommendation channels, the reporter said this place is cheap and good.

But turns out, this place is just cheap and cute, but their french toasted tasted really bad like it's been left out for days! French toast was HARD, not chewy at all.


 the open kitchen style allow you to watch the guy cook and make your french toast standing on the outside. Basically they made the french toast already and all the guy had to do was to grill it. The french toast i ordered was 300 yen.


oh yeah, and before i forget.
This place is not a CAFE.. it's a TRUCK. It's literally the size of a huge truck. So dont go looking for CAFE's when you're coming to this place, because you might get lost : /
