Tokyo At Nite

Missed the vibrant evenings in Tokyo and 9 yrs in Canada is definitely getting to me.  Here there is nothing  much to do or see, wherelse in Tokyo, plenty to do -eat, drink and be merry.

If the standard of living wasn’t so high in Japan, I may consider moving there and opening an electronic store but the rent can kill in tokyo, japan.

This picture was taken like at 10.30pm.. over here .. at 9pm.. the streets are dead.  I definitely see and feel the difference.   Next up .. theme restaurants.

Sushi Clock

A familiar sight in many Japanese restaurants throughout Japan, these clocks display much more than just the time. They also represent the scrumptious and delectable fare diners will find on the menu inside the restaurant. This sushi clock is the actual size of a lacquer sushi tray, with a flowering plum and gold fan decoration on the side. Each hour is denoted by a different sushi item: 1 - fresh water eel (Unagi), 2 - abalone (Awabi), 3 - shrimp (Ebi), 4 - octopus (Tako), 5 - mackerel (Saba), 6 - salmon roe (Ikura), 7 - conger eel (Anago), 8 - egg (Tamago), 9 - ark shell (Akagai), 10 - squid (Ika), 11 - tuna (Maguro), 12 - cucumber and tuna roll (Kappa Maki and Tekka Maki). So cleverly and realistically crafted, you’ll have visitors first wondering if they’re real, and secondly, asking if there’s a Japanese restaurant nearby! Made in Japan.
