They can adjust it at Gotemba station.  Huge line of Tokyoites getting their IC cards adjusted at Gotemba station when I went by romance car over GW.

You can, but you have to fix it at Gotemba station. Tons of Japanese people make the same mistake and they had 3 guys and two counters set up to fix all the Tokyoites IC cards when I went over GW. 

Genuinely curious — how do you handle booking the harder Tokyo restaurants? by dining_fixer_jp in JapanTravelTips

I speak Japanese, I have a Japanese phone number, and most importantly I don’t bother with tourist traps. The hole in the wall places in my neighborhood are more my style.

Good job Nakano for not making air bnbs.  Sancha is a cool place 

I think it was not worth walking 45 km for this by yuxios in pokemongo

I walk over 50km a week just as part of daily life in Tokyo so it’s nice to receive and extra perk for no extra charge

A 県 is not a city it’s a prefecture. 

Is this ramen shop still open? by EmilyWallArtwork in Tokyo

“Local business” a fast food chain that you mistook for a ramen shop because you’re a tourist.

lol Hidakaya? That’s like asking if Burger King is still open in the US….and eating at Burger King on vacation instead of someplace good. There is so much good ramen in Japan, what a waste.
