The Japanese have a profound appreciation for all things seasonal, including the changing of the leaves as summer slides into the chilly grip of winter. To celebrate, Yuka & A-chan and I went to Icho Namiki, a street lined with resplendent ginkgo trees who's leaves turn a stunning shade of yellow.
Braving the sleepy crowds, we met up and began our adventure!
At the end of the street was a festival!
So many tasty looking options~ Green curry, sausages, chili cheese curry fries…oh my!
These kids were too cute!
Mm, look at those big ol' crab legs!
Adorable candies, naturally. ^_^
Beer selection! It's not all Asahi, guys. ;)
There's actually a pretty robust craft beer scene in Japan, which is encouraging.
Lunch~ hot beef udon noodle soup with veggies.
Once we wrapped up here, we headed over to Ebisco in Shinjuku.
Ebisco is a restaurant that I've visited before with Yuka, staffed by professional wrestlers! Not only is the food delicious but the photo ops are unbeatable!
Check back tomorrow for that post!
^_^
Hope you enjoyed this glimpse into my adventures.
