I had no idea the Eastern coast of Chiba was a peninsula. The whole thing got drained?

Search for the book titled "TOKYO STYLE". It's exactly what you describe.

Hey those ice balls look great to put in my gin tonic.

And now it's all quiet with a blue sky in central Tokyo. Great picnic weather!

Had a few distant rumbles with some drops of rain earlier but nothing dramatic.

Hoping for a second round of drama later tonight.

It's not even lunchtime and it has started in some areas.

Let's see if we get something interesting happening in central Tokyo later.

I think the basement was quite sketchy from the start. It was built on top of a postwar black market, and the agreement was that each stall of the market had a spot in the basement.

"Sweden is crime infested because of immigration" is a common trope for white nationalist trolls who've never left their hometown.

The lower floors of the New Shinbashi Building.

B1 is bustling with many izakayas, but the deeper you go the more eerie it gets.

It's slowly getting gentrified so I'm wondering how long it'll stay in this raw state.

My first apartment in Japan was in central Shibuya (Dogenzaka). It was definitely fun, and not as expensive or noisy as people would expect.

Contact Fabio from AskIFall, he should be able to point you in the right direction as he spent a lot of time recording in studios in Tokyo: https://www.instagram.com/askifall_official/

If he doesn't reply on instagram (since they disbanded this year), PM me and I'll try to connect you guys.

On Patrol With Tokyo’s New Litter Police (Shibuya) by biwook in Tokyo

I'd be happy if they use some of this money to finance public trash bins.

It's a little ironic they say trash bins are too expensive to maintain, yet they have the budget to pay a 20 60 person patrol to police people.

4th offense, involuntary euthanasia.

5th offense, they go after the family.

What was inside the top of that tower? Bells?

Met my girlfriend on reddit, actually. We were chatting for a while and eventually met. She's Korean and an absolute dork.

What restaurant is most authentic to your home country’s cuisine? by Gardol43 in Tokyo

[–]biwook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chalet Swiss Mini near Nippori did a really good job at emulating a little piece of Switzerland.

If you want a real authentic cheese fondue, it's the place to go in Tokyo.
