This is not a *special* scene in Tokyo, Japan. This is very normal, actually!
You see employees line up to welcome customers in the morning just as the mall opens. You also see the same when the malls are closing. If you pass by, employees will bow and say "Irasshaimase" (welcome!), or "Arigatou Gozaimashita" (thank you!). This is your chance to feel like someone important! アメリカでは絶対目にかからない丁寧な日本のサービス ありがとう日本♥︎ Photo taken@Queens Square, Minato Mirai, Yokohama, Japan

People, people and more people. My personal definition of Shibuya, a ward in Tokyo. Known to be filled with lots of young people, Shibuya is a very crowded city from morning to night. Also popular for the "Hachi-ko" dog by the station, and the "Scramble crossing" (in the pic above). Both of these iconic locations are right by Shibuya station exits. If you like to shop or want to take a look at the young trendy clothes in Tokyo, you might want to stop at 109, a popular shopping mall full of different types of styles & wardrobes. You'll experience a very different mall atmosphere there. There are lots and lots of restaurants, cafes, bars and fast foods in Shibuya, like any other ward in Tokyo. Quite dense though. I highly recommend the standing sushi bar in the "Center-gai", a.k.a Center Street. Super casual, affordable but delicious & worthy. Another recommendation is LoFT, a shop spanning 7 floors with anything from beauty goods, travel goods to pens and paper. If you are looking for gifts and good quality goodies, you must visit! If you go to Shibuya, be prepared to walk! Through the alleys, through the streets....You'll forget the time passing by since there is so much to experience and look at! If you want to see all the lights, young vibe and be surrounded by lots and lots of people, this is a place you must visit :) Let me know if you have any recommendations in Shibuya!
I've always wanted to share the touching, emotional and beautiful Japanese lyrics to my friends in the US.
I covered one of my favourite songs, originally sang by Ai, called "Story". Ai also sang an English version of this for the super popular movie "Big Hero 6"! 日本の音楽・リリックってすごく深い だからこそカバーしてシェアしたくなりました! Full Lyrics You're not alone, I'm by your side Teriyaki Chicken is not an American dish! History "Teriyaki" is a way of cooking in japan: To grill a piece of protein (whether it be chicken or fish) with the sweet soy sauce. It has been a popular way of cooking in Japan since centuries ago; for example in the Meiji period (1800s), Teriyaki fish was very popular as it went perfectly with Japanese sake. These dishes then became popular in the army as well; they started to get packed in cans so that it could be saved for longer periods of time during the war. jpinsider did this.... I served this dish to go with some drinks at a home party. The great thing about this dish is that I was able to prepare it the morning of the party so all I had to do when I got home was to grill it! The sauce had soaked in the meat by then - delicious! You can use this sauce with fish, veggies, tofu and any type of ingredient you can think of. You can make this in advance and take it for lunch with you for a savoury satisfying meal. The possibilities are endless! Ingredients: (serves 2-4 people)
