Today's destination was IKEBUKURO.



Obviously, too many people… very crowded.
Not fancy to me… not kind of my place for sure.
It was all for MoonFlower who wanted to come to this cafe:



Had to see all photos and autographs of Thai actor… her favorite.
I didn't have to come… just to accompany her to this place.
Even though she insisted, thoroughly.



At least she bought me a drink. Hahaha.



Then SINJUKU.



Then OMOTESANDO.







Finished our tour with good sweets!!!

Long day… but many things got done.
In Shinjuku, we even placed an order for rug to be placed in our living room.
New rug… and new sofa soon!!!

That is a dramatic change soon to be realized!

Very slow today. Slept in for sure!
Well, MoonFlower went out for some festival and I became free around 3pm.
Went out for coffee break.

My destination was "Unison Taylor" - my usual place.
Wanted to have French Toast.



I came in sort late… and French toast was no longer available.
I missed it!!!
So I had to choose something else.



Toast with Ogura (sweet beans paste) and butter.
My relax time was still saved with this toast for sure. Hahaha.



Showed up to the baby goodies in Mitsukoshi department store.
Needed to buy a gift for the friend who got new baby yesterday.
Had no idea what to choose.

Never ever dealt with any of baby care whatsoever. You know what I mean.



I took staff's recommendation and bought this as the gift.
Not sure how well this could be.



Sunday finished with bento box for supper.
This is old-style Japanese bento from "Kiyoken."
This has never changed from old time.

It was still the same when I was a child and my father bought this for me upon his business trip.

New thing is usually better. Though, old thing sometimes remains as the best for a long time.
This is a good example.

Now wait for MF to come home from festivity.
Am sure that she has endless story to tell and it is going to be a long night, I bet.
Hahaha. At least she enjoys herself as much.

Saturday with clear sky over Tokyo!
It is the busy weekend for MoonFlower for some activities with friends.
That means that I am open to do anything. Yep, totally fully. Totally.

Though, MF asked me to take her to the meeting place near Tokyo since she had no clue.
Well, piece of cake.
So we went out around 11am.

After leaving her at the restaurant for lunch meeting, I took off to a cafe.
Went in to the place called "Komeda Coffee."
Unfortunately, there was a waiting line with more than several groups of people.

Instantly gave up on waiting. Moved on to another cafe located down the road.
Secured a seat for myself and had a cup of coffee for thinking what to do for the day.



It was window seat. Chaykin watch is today's partner on my wrist.

Several ramen shops listed for today lunch.
Ended up at famous miso ramen shop called "Do-Miso."



Surely, there were several people waiting outside the shop.
I lined up and waited for 10 minutes or so.



Most popular "miso special" for 1,100 yen
Good but somehow not great.
Expected much?

When I went to same brand at different location, seemed much better.
Maybe I should come again to this same placer for further judgment.
Yet, this is very specialized miso ramen place anyhow.



Watch check adventure at Ginza Mitsukoshi department store.
Today's there was about "KUDOKE" brand from Germany.

KUDOKE brand site



All hand-made watch.
This piece is coming with am/pm indicator.



My impression of Kudoke is nothing but hand-engraving.
Super-cool see-through face design.
Great craftsmanship!!!

Though, cannot afford even one at all. Wish I could.



Another coffee time… after coming back to the usual area.
"Cafe Streamer" is my destination.
This is new place opened back in the middle of last month.

I finally came and checked in today.



Very traditional Japanese coffee place menu.
It is expressed as "KISSA."

Very old style and very nostalgic!



Ordered cafe latte and pudding.



Pudding was rather small. Smaller than expected.
Though, taste was rather rich. Richer than really thought it might be.
Not bad…

I definitely come back to check out other menus that I am still interested in.
I should give up all other cafe options… maybe. Hahaha.



MF went even up to the dinner with friends… so I had a drink home.
This canned beverage has 9% of alcohol… that was surely TOO MUCH.
Not my taste. Should've not bought this. Hahaha.

Coffee, ramen, coffee and pudding.
No movie today.
Had to go to one place tomorrow…

Other than that, another free day is coming up!

Made it early - it is Saturday.
Had to go to see this movie first.
Korean movie it is.

"Perfect Driver"



This is 5th movie to watch in this year. Quite high pace at this point.



No so common for me to see Korean movie.
Though, it was pretty good preview that I saw over several times.
Actress was from "Parasite."

Driving scene was not as good as ones from Hollywood, I guess.
Though, it was quite Korean story.
However, the end was rather clam. Not a surprise at the end at all. Hahaha.



Dan dan noodles became my lunch after disappointment that restaurant where I went to was closed today.
Well, turned out to be quite good alternative.

Stopped by coffee shop for after-lunch chilling.



"Unison Taylor Ningyocho" - 1st visit in this year



I thought that drink come out with mug… but did come along with paper cup.
Was my order for to-go?

I even got a massage for an hour, taking care of my stiff body!
Particularly, stiff neck which was my pain!
Pain seems to be gone after massage and would last for a while? Hope so.



Supper was a small drink dining with MoonFlower.



Yaki Tori (chicken) and Yaki Ton (pork) !!!
