Quieter and quaint looking town in Tokyo which you should not miss! It’s a small shopping street near to ueno area has very good food offered there. Didn’t get a chance to try their mains like ramen, sushi or beef as we have already tried most of it near Tokyo station. However, we managed to try their famous beef patty. The shop do not have any English words and hence I just followed the local Japanese ladies and selected the popular choice. My gosh, I instantly fell in love with the piping hot delicious beef patty ever! It taste extra good especially when the weather was so cold! Next, we tried that Takoyaki from a small shop in one of the lanes. Initially I thought they would be cold especially when it was already prepared and sitting on the trays. Lo and behold, I took my first bite and it scalded my mouth! The takoyaki balls were crispy on the outside and piping hot and soft in the inside. The sauce was awesome coupled with their usual condiments which made it the best I have ever tried! For something fun, the staircase to enter the shopping street from the train station resembles the staircase from the ‘Joker’ movie. If you are daring, you can mimic Joker with his dance moves down the stairs. I am sure some Japanese will find it interesting and start snapping pics of you. Could share this as that was what one lady did when my husband had decided to do the dance! Anyways, no one knows us. Just relax and have fun!
