    Meiji jingu mae

    Posted by patvish 29 October 2005

    Not particularly original this one, featuring in a Belle & Sebastion song and all. Just outside the Meiji shrine on Sunday afternoons, right near Harujuki, all sorts of weird creatures and freaks assemble dressed as their favourite anime characters or gothic victorian dolls amongst other things, and all seem willing to have their picture taken. Once you tire of this, your right near trendy Harujuku with limited edition trainer shops, perhaps Japan's only Pizza Express and even a Gold's Gym.

    What it says on the tin, all you can eat cake for up to two hours. Very popular with dainty office ladies and frumpy old folk alike. Look out for the infinitely more practical tabehoudai (eat all you can) and the super nomihoudai (drink all you can). These also run for two hours and can really help stretch those yen if you want to start a good night in the right way.

    Cake tabehoudai - less classy department stores.
    Tabehoudai and nomihoudai - your local izakaya (J-style eating pub). Should all be about 2,000 yen for two hours.
