Another thing I like to share... almost forget doh.gif

Actually before this i already read there r some scam going in Tsukiji Market
the chef is serving Semi Fatty Tuna as Fatty Tuna

I suspect this scam is also happening in the #1 sushi restaurant in tsukiji market
>> the Sushi Dai

yes, i queue for Sushi Dai... 2.5hours!!!

i tried to compare the pix with the REAL FATTY TUNA from internet....
no matter how it look... it is SEMI FATTY TUNA

although it looks semi... but the taste is still really good for me
then i order the second fatty tuna...
this time it turn out to be totally different taste
the fish tendon is not cut correctly, when u bite it... u will know
the first pieces it taste like it will melt in your mouth, the second piece... hv to chew it

and dont said i never warn u
pls do not take my words seriously
i only share what i experience with my ducky tongue

good luck
disclaimer: im not expert in sushi/tuna/michelin star... whatever

the pix not in my lappie, and i havent backup it... sweat.gif
ask again next week...
i try my best to post

actually there is another thing...
after i notice the tuna is semi fatty, i keep quite la... diam2 cukup
but then someone ask me why the taste like tat... (the second pieces)
i told them... it mayb a SEMI FATTY TUNA

when i utter the word SEMI, i somehow notice the chef microexpression
he stopped looking at me for a moment with a slight irk face before he turn away
tat moment actually confirmed my suspicious

i think as a reputable chef, he mayb feeling awkward and shame of the scam

disclaimer: im not CIA trained with expertise in microexpression, to notice tat... oni required some social wisdom
hehehe

note: no need to believe my sinka... to proof it... u jus need to compare ur pix with my pix, afterall i m not expert

In Japan 1 meal almost RM30. One day means Rm100.
If you going 7 days means minimum RM700 on food already.

Food, you can still sacrifice. Buy cheaper food from Family Mart or anything but transportation you cannot save.
Well, as you know Japan transportation is very efficient and obviously that comes with a cost. laugh.gif
I spent around 4.2k for my 9 days trip for food, transportation, souvenirs and gifts for the special one. tongue.gif
Souvenirs are not cheap in Japan. Also, I stayed at my friends' house so those costs didn't cover accommodation.

In Japan 80% food are 1300 - 1500 Yen This already Rm40 per person.
If you go cheapest food chain store also around 500Yen which is RM15 already per person.
If you go Sushi shop....around 3000 - 5000Yen which is more than RM250 per person

Find bento shop, similar to convenient shop but oni sell bento and chap fan
U can get it around 200yen to 1000 and expired meal is cheaper whistling.gif

Or eat instant noodle at convenient shop... 100 to 200yen
And eat bread for breakfast... oso cost less than 200yen

Fast food meal like Yoshida, cost around 400-1000 with free drink

In tokyo, u can get Tokyo Subway Metro Pass 3days around 1500yen
Aftertat on average u expected to pay 1way subway around 200yen

For solo traveler, u can sleep at capsule hotel...

Wow.. im thinking how much should i budget for my 6 days trip in tokyo.

I ve paid for hotels and disneyland via online.

Im jz thinking of brining RM2500..

6 days food 6x100 = RM600
6 days transport 6x50 = RM300
Airport transport 50x2 =RM100

I still have 1500 to go, i thought should be enough if i want to buy some stuff or splurge on 1 or 2 meals

RM600 for 6 days food. Means each meal you cannot spent more than 1000 Yen // RM30.
Like this your one whole week only can eat Sukiya (refer to page1) or Yoshida or Family marts // Dawson Bento set only.
