Lunch@A Small Place

Do you love to go to Ramen Shop?
Oh, I love to... but the problem is, ramen is one of high-calorie foods! Some diet-advisor says, you may enjoy ramen noodle but better not to eat ramen-soup!

When I found this cheese-tonkotsu(pork bone broth) ramen, I soon realized it was really difficult not to enjoy ramen soup.

Well, I just gave up.
Enjoy Ramen, both noodle and soup!

Zen-Kasyoin Cafe@Shibuya Hikarie

Zen-Kasyoin is a sweets shop in Kyoto.

Oh, Kyoto... a lovely, traditional, ancient city that Japanese admire.

Luckily I can enjoy their authentic sweets at Shibuya Hikarie. It's a mixture of Japanese and Western sweets such as green tea flavoured cake.

Because my friend and I, both of us are big green tea flavour fans, you can just imagine how much our happiness at that time.

「然」かすてら(zen-kasutera)、聖花冠(seikakan)、薪(takigi)
lovely names sweets...
zen-kasutera tastes the yolk of an egg.
seikakan, green tea flavoured custard cream inside.

zen-ice cream.
we are girls who never-should-afraid-to-eat-ice cream!

3 kinds of sugar are available for coffee.
because those sugar are so cute, I put white ball like sugar into my cup!
(usually I don't like sugar on my coffee.)

My friend and I have been friends since high school students. We wore same school uniforms.
Now, she brought her baby girl. I don't even have a partner.

But we are still friends, we always wish each other's happiness.
When she got married, I gave her beautiful iittala's glasses with other girls.
When I got new job, she gave me beautiful tanzanight's earrings.

iittala, tanzanights, They are not only gifts, but also our hearts.

How ever we changed, we'll be best friends forever.

Vietnam Kitchen 999 at Ginza 5

If I want to have a lunch in Ginza, there are so many choices.

But If it is a beautiful sunny day, I will choose spicy Asian food.

Ginza 5 shopping center locates opposite to Marion bldg. and you can directly access using underground passage from Subway's Ginza station. there are 9 restaurants and 3 cafes ( include Starbucks) underground floor. Restaurants include Hong Kong, Japanese, Italian, Korean, Indian, Thai, Vietnam food and a burger shop. 

It's like night market in Asia, small and casual place and food is cheap and delicious. This time I chose "Vietnam Kitchen 999".

This is a set lunch menu 1,500yen. (If you bring a handbill, you can get 1-free drink. A handbill is placed at the entrance).

appetizer: "goi du du"(green papaya salad) ,
"cha gio hai san"(fried spring roll),
"banh mi tom"(shrimp toast)
green papaya is one of my favorites.
I used to eat green papaya with spicy & sour sauce.
green papaya is not sweet, but really fresh taste.

"pho" with lime and chili.
rice noodle soup with beef.

"banh xeo",  like mix of omelet and pancake, sprouts inside.

Spicy and sour flavor with much leafy green and herbs, Vietnam food is so lovely!
Do you want to try?
I'm pretty sure that you'll never be disappointed!

The park was filled with green leafy trees.
