That's ¥1650 max per person, not sure what exactly you're trying to achieve. If by "nice' you mean romantic ... a bit difficult with that budget ba. IMO just fire up tabelog, filter by price and do a map search.

In that case, for me tabelog is the best bet. You can filter the price by max price = ¥2000, then do a map search at Gion area (like my screenshot in previous post). At this price range, anything 3.00 and above should be quite satisfying, 3.50 and above should be really good.

Kansai International Airport obviously, because without landing there how would you go to either place?

What does it matter what other people's experiences are? What matters is your own data usage pattern mah. If you gonna stream 4k video for a few hours a day on the train in the daytime then go to hotel backup your entire day's raw videos and photos to the cloud at night then of course it won't be enough. If you just whatsapp and Google maps then more than enough.

Having said that, my last Japan trip I used 2.2gb in 8days (phone only).

For all we know, Wawasan 2020 time still haven't moved lol, the move has been delayed so many times liao.

Anyway the outer market confirm remain. Whether the popularity of the market will still be there after the inner market moves ... it's anybody's guess.

Inner market the market itself will confirm move.

What doesn't seem confirmed is the row of shops in the inner market (the ones selling knives, pots n plates, etc, and the famous sushi shops). In my last trip in Feb I asked the plates and bowls shopkeeper, he mentioned that a lot of things are still not clear, that it seems like his shop will probably move but don't know move to where, etc.

"Enough" is subjective. Check out this link and see ba. https://www.japan-guide.com/e/e2410.html

For me rm285/day is pretty OK for food and transport assuming no long distance travel. For example if you are going to/from Tokyo and Kansai, the shinkansen alone will eat up rm1k liao.

If interline agreement normally when you check in at KLIA, Malindo should be able to tag your luggage all the way to Tokyo.

Boarding pass wise if Malindo can't issue it in KLIA then at Changi you have to either go to the transfer desks within the airport (I'm not sure if ANA has transfer desk airside), or go out and re-check in again at the check in desks.

SIA for rm1.5k seems really cheap. For me (I am based in SG), SQ fares to Japan very very rarely go below s$600. Normally even promo fares also $650-$680.

Up until 2016 or even 2017 I would've said "dafug are you crazy?" But this year Feb I went Tsukiji again (5th visit lol) and oh my goodness the place - especially outer market - is practically a tourist attraction nowadays. So many tourists walking around, so many shopkeepers calling out to them in English and Mandarin, I definitely prefer the place many years ago before it got so famous.

Use tabelog to find the best sushi places according to locals.

The very best ones are pretty much impossible for outsiders to get into (example Sushi Saito) so you can pretty much forget it.

As you go down the list then availability gets a bit easier, but by and large you can't make reservations as a gaijin.

So you have to follow what tohff7 said. Or you can use pocket conceirge, those kind of website with booking services, but note that the fee they charge isn't cheap (think ¥4000 for just the booking fee alone).

Fly Garuda then both ways also can see 🤣

It's a skytrax 5-star airline so objectively it's pretty good.

For me based on one flight, other than the food, they are better than MAS. Attendants are friendlier in economy and more competent in business. The main problem of course is adding 3-5hours of travel time vs flying direct from KLIA, so unless the price is a lot cheaper and/or flight times more convenient, hard to recommend over flying direct.

Go google how much taxis cost in Tokyo then only figure out if it's worth it for you.

I'm not sure where you got the idea that we go to Japan and only buy green tea KitKat lol. I think it's the opposite: green tea KitKat is mostly already available in KL/SG so if we go Japan we surely buy other flavors.

Hokkaido also famous for musk melon? I tot they more famous for the red/orange yubari one. Didn't know they also do the green one.

Ooh, sembikiya got an outlet in takashimaya in SG, my wife and I always go and ogle. Last weekend went, got Shine Muscat grapes one bunch = s$300. And two biji of mango from don't know which prefecture = s$200.

End up we bought two biji of peach, forgot which prefecture also, s$29 for 2 biji. And one small pack of cherries, s$23.

Here, lemme help you out: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=hokkaido+in+spring

The transparent tea company selling some transparent yoghurt drink flavour now too. No idea how it tastes though.

The new rules went in June or July this year. Its a bit surprising that you didn't hear about it at all on any of your social media feeds, it's a huge problem with airbnb cancelling TONS of reservations for people barely 2 weeks in advance of their trip then they need to go last minute scramble find new accoms.

Put the crowds aside, check out what the city has to offer, and then decide what you want to do. Then you'll know whether 2 days enough or whether to extend to 3.

For me Tokyo is my favorite city in the world, I've visited 5 times liao and still haven't gotten tired of it.
