Tsukiji Fish Market. The fish auction centre is out of bounds to visitors now for fear that itchy fingers of visitors will spread viruses to the fresh fish. |
On the fringe of the fish market, there are many stalls like this selling fresh cooked food. Patronage is very good. |
Nice shellfish on offer. |
Frozen crabs looking attractive in their bright colours. Live crabs are available too. |
I attended a Shushi-making class at a restaurant in Ginza. This is what I made. Notice the variations in size. I ate them nonetheless. |
The Chef and what he made. I shy comparing my end product to his. |
The streets of Ginza are closed to traffic after 12 pm on Saturdays. People come and sit under umbrellas to have coffee and light meals. |
Odaiba in Tokyo is a man-made island.It has high end condos, office blocks and a huge entertainment complex especially appealing to those from Gen Y. The bridge in the background links it to Tokyo. |

This giant straw slipper adorns one of the gates. This type of sandals was worn by Samurais when they fought bouts with their opponents. |

After the meal. Mata neh! |
One of the better lunches, not at the Ninja restaurant, of course. |
