Guys any tactic on booking which date to catch sakura full bloom for sure in 2019? Without booking 1 month prior to sakura season ofc, as the accomodation will become a big problem.

This year the forecast is inaccurate and many tourist end up arriving too late to see sakura.

Planning to bring my parents there as sakura viewing is their dream, it would be real disappointment if we arrive too late/too early.

Plan to go from osaka-kyoto-tokyo-hokkaido - 14days++ trip.

Thanks in advance.

Did customs at shin chitose airport banned packaged food like brahim when we bring from here?

Last year i thought jp food very expensive. But just mid-range and affordable especially at convenient store.

Brought canned food like sardin,beans etc no problem. End of the day still can't resist the japanese cuisine =p, end up throwing most of the food i bring from msia.

They inspect the rice i bring tho, had to fill up a form and was allowed to bring in.

IMO, not worth the hassle to bring food to JP, taste the food there. Things in Super market not expensive too.

Scandinavia countries then different story.

Is it? My only concern is to find halal foods there, my group wants to bring lots of roti gardenia over there biggrin.gif

Convenient store got alot to choose from ma.

Supermarket too, both of them is not very expensive. I find myself stupid bringing food there. I manage to find whole unagi for just rm40 @@

But 1 thing i notice, in japan every market can differ in price, like some place rm 80 for unagi, some rm60 and so on.

So try to visit few market n compare the price.

If airbnb try look for with kitchen equipment, can buy from market then cook.

If stay hotel juz buy ready made food from convenient store.

Dont need to stuggle yourself visit japan. Just ask staff which 1 halal.

rm80 are usually local eel and rm40~60 are usually from china..also if it's ridiculously cheap (<1000 yen for the whole unagi), those are grilled like 3 days ago, almost trash grade laugh.gif
