I got a Shizuoka Muskmelon as a gift. Japanese melon sometimes intended as a high-priced gift.
It’s a ridiculously sweet, juicy, and tender melon.
The shape of the melon is perfectly round and beautiful. You have to give a special massage on each melon to make beautiful mesh of a net.
I enjoy not only the honeydew muskmelon but also the pleasant sweet aroma so much.

I shared “Krispy Kreme minis” with my friend.
20 doughnuts were in the box.
Smiley was pudding flavor, lime one was cream soda flavor… all of these made us happy (& full of sugar! XD)

January and February are seasons for students who are taking college,senior high school or elementary school entrance exams.
Major food companies are making their products to support students preparing for their exams.
The contents of snack foods are usually same but the packages are changed to cheer on the students.
At this time of year, I love getting these items to cheer on myself even if I’m not a student suffering from exam hell.

Cafe Asan is in Suehiro-cho, 1 station (but you can walk easily) from Akihabara.
If you walk along the railroad tracks, suddenly neat white wall place appears.
This is 2k540. In there, cute zakka shops, designer offices, & food places.
You can try to sit on hammock, use free WiFi, try unique flavored drinks and Japanese-asian foods at Cafe Asan.

I went to beautiful Henri Charpentier’s cafe in Ginza.
Me & my friend had Valentine’s Day special cake, Esprit Rouge & Chic Noir.
You’ll go down a staircase to the cafe… and the bookshelves has secrets.
If you wish to know, please ask a shopgirl like “I wish to touch up my makeup” ;)

There is a hamburger restaurant close to the post office in Shibuya called Whoopi GoldBURGER. The name is a twist on the name of the actor Whoopi Goldberg, it’s a very unique name for a restaurant, but the hamburgers are very tasty!
The basic hamburger is the “Whoopi GoldBURGER”, the double patty is called the “Sarah Jessica BURGER”, the triple patty is the “Charlotte GainsBURGER”, the chili flavor is the “Steven SoderBURGER” and mashed potatoes are called “Natalie POTATOman”. There was also a bacon burger called the “Kevin Bacon”.
I suggested to the owner that they should have one called the “Mark ZuckerBURGER”.

These light crumbly baked goods “winter’s limited edition” with a lovely package are from Meiji which is a major confectionery firm in Japan.
A fluffy little penguin really fits the image of Fu-Wa. I enjoy the taste and texture.
Whipped white chocolate covered baked goods will melt in your mouth heavenly.
Let’s take a break!
