FIrst Meal in Tokyo

Finally managed to organise my pictures from Tokyo. Phew.. so many pics to edit and decide which are post-worthy and which aren't.

We reached Tokyo at 4pm and hotel at 6pm. So hungry but yet too tired to venture too far so we took the free hotel bus to Shinjuku. There was just so many shops and we decided on this conveyor belt thingy.

There was a little bit of a crowd.



The sushi chefs hard at work.



Because there was no english prices anyway, nor a menu in sight, we had to constantly refer to the plate colors and the corresponding prices on the wall. As it was our first meal in Japan, we didnt want to blow the bank.



Everything is handmade and eaten immediately. Itd be A LITTLE weird if one can feel the warmth of his hand on the sushi. Itd be like you taking off your clothes and putting them in a laundry bag and handing it to the housekeeper and she feels your warm clothes... eewwwwl.

Because it's all handmade, the sushi is not as "uniform". It all adds to the authenticity. But if Sakae Sushi did this, we would all cry foul. I know i would. Haha
