more instant ramen for breakfast, at an ungodly, jet-lag-induced hour
matcha and a red-bean flavored sweet at the tea house in the Hama-rikyu garden
this is where we had lunch, a somewhat unassuming place in Asakusa - two blocks down from the main street and totally devoid of tourists
the reason Ritesh picked this place for lunch: they had chilies drying in the sun outside
we managed to order the set lunch w/ mackarel, with the help of another customer who spoke a couple of words of English, and our trusty dictionary - super tasty and super cheap.
we ordered a plate of the fried bean sprouts because the gentlemen who helped us out was having them and they smelled really good... tasted great, too, although granted, they're not all that photogenic
freshly made red-bean cakes walking up to Asakusa Temple
and spicy dinner at a Thai hole-in-the-wall under the train tracks near Tokyo station. We knew we had some fine dining coming up the next few days, so went nice and cheap on this. Tokyo really doesn't have to be expensive...
Btw, for pictures of anything other than food, such as what we actually did and saw all day, check this link.
