Hi Sifus,

Any must-eat food at these districts? Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Nagoya, Hiroshima, Hakodate. Could you also recommend a good cyber cafe near Tokyo station to spend the night with? Will be checking in on 12/30/2013. Most of the sites found are in Jap...

Greetings from Tokyo!
Just done my Osaka, Kyoto, hiroshima(Tori gate), shiragawa(snowy observation view) and hakodate(night mountain view) trip. Will be spending next 3 full days in Tokyo
1) I know tsukiji market is closed but what about their f&b? Sushi Dai is one of my must-have sad.gif
2) Looking for burberry blue label. I heard takashimaya has a branch but anywhere else?
3) I know my jr pass is pretty useless. Should I get subway pass and which? Tentatively thinking to visit asakusa, sky tree, harajuku, shibuya, akhibara, odaiba, nakamise, meiji shrine, shinjuku, rainbow bridge. If got time, will go yokohama for nissin museum and some other places there

2. There is one blue label shop at the end of the main ginza street. This is a burberry shop that also have burberry and black label.

3.  There is a 1 day subway pass but you really have to plan your trip to make it worthwhile. Some place you mention is also serve by JR. Odaiba and rainbow bridge are basically the same place and both metro and JR does not go there.

I see, thanks! Don't plan to go ginza though smile.gif

1.) Lol, prepare to queue for at least 2 hours  rclxub.gif
2.) Ginza (bought a wallet and hand bag there  sweat.gif ) Just beside Hakuhinkan Toy Park
3.) I think better you buy suica or pasmo for more convenience (my opinion)

I don't mind the queuing at all but need to find out if it's available still during new year period. Thanks!

Thanks! Another question...

These locations of interest are based on regions from japan-guide. Does it mean they should be visited together at one go?

Akihabara + Tsukiji Market + Koishikawa Korakuen

Shinjuku + Shibuya + Meiji Shrine + Harajuku

Tokyo Sky Tree + Asakusa + Ueno

Odaiba + Tokyo tower + Roppongi Hills

P/S: shiragawa snowy view, hakodate Night mountain view, goryukaku tower view and miyajima tori gate are amazingly breath taking smile.gif

Add in ueno park and ameyoko street for affordable shopping. Don't forget nearby ichiran ramen too. Depending on when you are going, could be a pain in the @ss squeezing in sensoji and skytree
