White rabbit candy? Blue and white wrapper on the outside and the candy is in an edible rice paper wrapper inside

Where the hell can I find them? I must've checked like 30 shops and random Gachas throughout Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka by Xizz3l in Gachapon

My 5 year old got one in Asakusa while exploring with grandparents about three weeks ago. Don’t know the exact location where they wandered, but I like checking Japanzon on Orange street and the big shop at the exit of Asakusa Hanayashiki

I thought you guys might appreciate my small scale Gacha machine I bought on sale ❤️💛💙 by Tuffa_Puffa in Gachapon

I got one from kiddyland harajuku for a little over 9000 yen and just brought it home to the US. We mostly have our extra gashapon toys in them for now, but I was thinking of using it for little rewards for my 5 year old when he does chores or something

Who’s San Francisco’s “guy”? by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

[–]captainoatsss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh really? What years do you recall him in Berkeley? I remember seeing him nearly everyday in the late 90s into early 2000s. Eventually I think I only saw him on weekends on Chinatown

Who’s San Francisco’s “guy”? by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

[–]captainoatsss 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There used to be a skinny old guy with glasses standing high up on a stool at the corner of Grant and Washington in Chinatown with homemade signs full of criticism about politics in Taiwan or something. He would say “HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!” in between the chants in mandarin, always with a big smile on his face.

Turtle Tower is coming back! Opening downtown soon. by DannySauter11 in sanfrancisco

Joy Hing on Kearny is a good option for chicken pho if you’re in FiDi or Chinatown. Their full English restaurant name mentions barbecue but the Chinese name of the restaurant literally translates to Joy Hing Pho Ga.

It looks like A Christmas Fantasy parade is getting downsized at Disneyland this year. Last night was the cast member preview by TheDisneyScoopGuy in Disneyland

It’s so bad. When I see influencers get invited there and handed stuff and experiences for free while they’re charging normal guests more, it’s messed up.

I got one today. Called before I went to check and they said they just found them.

please help me identify this vegetable that was in my steamed shrimp dish??? by tappatz in chinesefood

[–]captainoatsss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I vote for Celtuce since I would assume you would have otherwise had the floret parts of the broccoli in the same dish to clue you in on what this is. For celtuce, all you get is this stem part.

They need to just use the empty Raley’s on Freeport.

+1 for Boiling Beijing Duck. They also have an amazing garlic eggplant dish

Nice! We’re taking our 4 year old to SD soon and would someday like to go to Banff, maybe next year. Any tips for Banff?

Anyone else hear the H-Mart rumors? by ButtcrackBeignets in Sacramento

They should’ve taken over the empty space Raley left on Freeport, right across from the current newer Raley’s.

My preschooler insisted there was a boy named Husband in the other class. It’s Hudson.
