Walking Azabu Area

Such a nice day to be out. Plenty of sunshine and mo wind makes today perfect.
Never been in this area but I really like, of course, who would not.

Spectacular Night

At near by complex, this special illumination was on display. It was cold but worth to see.
In the room, much anticipated birthday cake was delivered to the room. A very nice day, indeed.

Special Occasion

To celebrate this day, we are staying at a nice hotel. Some special treatment from the hotel. I am so spoiled.

The Best BBQ

We celebrated X'mas with Korea BBQ. My friend knew about this place and it is really difficult to make a reservation.
Started at 5 pm and non stop eating the best BBQ I had ever tested.
Merry X'mas to all.

Great Find

I am really liking this area. Today we tried this charcoal grill place where we got mackerel and hamburg. They were really good and very reasonably priced
Can't believe we can have this high quality meals in the center of the city at this price range.

Travels

This is the proof of how much travel I do in a year. There are a lot of benefits but a lot of air time I spent.

Shibuya Date

We went to Shibuya for lunch and hung out
Originally we thought about sushi but the place just finished their lunch service, so we started walking around. Luckily we found this place. I wanted to eat oysters and fried shrimp and this set menu had both. They both were really good.

Napolitan Spaghetti

We, meaning Japanese people, have invented Japanese pasta by using tomato ketchup as a sauce. Back, onion and bell pepper do the trick.

Food I didn't Cook

As I am staying at a hotel, I don't cook but eat what they offer.
Breakfast at their main dining,  while evwnings snacks at the lounge.
My lunch is the same as at the office, carrots.
Plus I do exercise to burn all the calories I had.

Home away from Home

This is where I stay this week in Amsterdam.  This is not a hotel where I usually stay at but I spoiled myself to this nicer hotel this week with a suite upgrade.
Still new and everything seems very clean.

Weekend in Den Haag

My plan to go to Cork in Ireland was unfortunately cancelled due to some good news my friend had.
So I am here in Den Haag this weekend. It is santaaclaus here in the Netherlands.  It is very controversial as they pant their face to black.
A light lunch from a healthy store.
