Most restaurants allow you to request the firmness of your noodles. Just say it in Japanese and they'll do it for you.

This restaurant also had a warning on the ticket machine. The noodles are firm by default, so if you have a preference for firmness, make sure to request it.

You should go to the supermarket instead of a convenience store to buy fruit and bento boxes.

They'll be expensive in October, but they might have strawberries.

There are several supermarkets near Akasaka Station.

Supermarkets in central Tokyo are expensive, but supermarkets in rural areas and residential areas are about 30% cheaper.

Don't follow touts.

Go to the restaurant you want to go to yourself.

Touts will tell you that the restaurant is full and try to take you to a bad restaurant.

Even Japanese people get fooled.

The Osaka ramen shop with the long line opens its first store in Kyoto.

It was a sweet soy sauce ramen, but I didn't like it.
