Every time I take the train to JR Ueno Station, I always make a special detour to browse this shop. This penguin-themed store is really appealing to penguin lovers, especially since it offers different new products every season. From household goods to all kinds of small items, the designs are fresh and cute, with little repetition. You can tell the store puts a lot of thought into planning its products.
Although the items aren't exactly cheap, I still can't resist picking up a few things to take home every time I browse. There's also a penguin-themed café next to the shop where you can have a snack afterward〜
The whole shop, from the decor to the merchandise, is full of Suica penguin elements. It's super convenient to stop by and sit for a bit before hopping on the train.
