Kawa no Soba

After drinking around Nakasu, Fukuoka, Kawa no Soba is a place you will want to stop by. Located along the Nakagawa River, this restaurant works both as a place for chuka soba, a light ramen-style noodle dish, and as an izakaya-style spot, making it a popular choice for ending the night. It has counter seats that are easy to use even when visiting alone, as well as relaxed table seating, making it convenient as a second or third stop.

Ramen

The white soy sauce ramen broth looks light, but it has a lot of depth and doesn’t taste overly salty. Once the noodles soak up the broth, they go down really smoothly.

It was my first time trying Hakata’s specialty gurukawa, and the chicken skin was grilled crispy on the outside and pleasantly chewy inside. The more you chew, the more flavorful it gets, and it pairs really well with the ramen. If you’re around Tenjin, I definitely recommend giving this place a try. The white soy sauce ramen with their signature chicken skin skewers is a combo that makes me want to come back again.

Kinoko no Yama

Kinoko no Yama, a long-selling product that represents Meiji Co., Ltd. (hereafter, Meiji), has been a beloved national chocolate snack across generations since its launch in 1975. Its most distinctive feature is its cute mushroom-shaped form. The cracker is light and fragrant, while the chocolate portion has a two-layer structure that gives it a smooth melt-in-the-mouth texture. The slight saltiness of the cracker brings out the sweetness, while the clean finish makes it easy to enjoy.

Each piece is just the right size for one bite, and it doesn’t leave too many crumbs. It’s super convenient as an afternoon snack.

The location is really convenient. It’s not too far to walk from Shinjuku Station, and the area nearby is lively with plenty of places to eat and shop.

For Tokyo, the room was fairly spacious, which made the stay much more comfortable.

Even late at night, there were still a lot of people.
It was just a simple bowl of udon, but it was really memorable. The fried toppings with the broth were especially comforting.

The packaging feels really premium, so it makes a great gift. The cookies themselves have a light caramel and buttery milk flavor, and overall they really feel like a perfect fall and winter dessert.

Keio Department Store is right next to Shinjuku Station, and you can really feel that classic department store vibe. The location is super convenient. The basement food floor is fun to browse, and there are lots of choices for Japanese souvenirs and bento boxes, so it’s very tourist-friendly.

Toyosu Senkyaku Banrai

This new arm of Toyosu Market opened in February 202, buzzing with two areas to explore: a hub of food and tasty bites at Toyosu Jogai Edomae Ichiba and the hot springs day spa Tokyo Toyosu Manyo Club for all the best of food, shopping and ease at the hot springs.

The overall environment is clean, and the layout makes it easy to get around. There are lots of food options, but the prices are on the high side. It’s missing the local everyday feel of Tsukiji, and feels more like a polished, carefully designed tourist food hall.

Tokyo Tower

Tokyo Tower was born in 1958. When it was built, Tokyo Tower proudly stood out as the tallest steel tower in the world. At a height of 33 meters, it was taller than the Eiffel Tower in Paris. It is located in Minato Ward in the center of Tokyo. Take in sweeping views of the city from the observation deck. Currently under renovation, it is always changing.

Tokyo Tower is more than just a landmark. It feels like a symbol of Tokyo’s early prosperity. Compared with the modern vibe of Tokyo Skytree, it has a bit more nostalgia and retro charm. Especially when it’s lit up at night, the atmosphere feels really warm.

Mt. Fuji

At a staggering 3,776 meters tall, Mt. Fuji is Japan’s tallest mountain and the pride of its two homes, Yamanashi and Shizuoka Prefectures. This famous peak is an iconic symbol of Japan.

Mt. Fuji is truly magnificent. Even from far away, it’s an impressive sight.
When it’s cloudy, it’s easy to miss the summit, so it really depends a bit on luck.

Kameari Park

Kameari Park is located near the north exit of JR Kameari Station (head straight out, then turn right and you’re there). It’s famous as the park of the same name that acts as a setting in the manga “Kochira Katsushika-ku Kameari Koen-mae Hashutujo.”

You can spot bronze statues of Kankichi Ryotsu all over the place, which makes walking around really fun and nostalgic.
The whole Kameari area has a very local, everyday feel. It’s not one of those places packed with tourists, so it’s easy to explore at a relaxed pace.
