Food & Shopping: Anything to do with Food!

After a week straight of nothing but traditional Japanese fare, I did start craving some plain old bacon and eggs.... But anyway, check out this mixture of home-cooked food, resort inn food, restaurant food, and fast food.

Food & SHopping: Shopping Scenes

Because the Japanese love to shop.
Shopping areas that are ritzy or humble, traditional or modern, spacious or crowded.
