Suminoe is my favorite bakery in Tokyo. The value for money is unbeatable, and even on taste alone it holds its own against any famous shop. But it is actually a restaurant at heart, and I had always wanted to…
After Akihabara, I headed off to eat at Tokyo Ramen Street, under Tokyo Station. Tokyo Station is the starting point for the Shinkansen lines heading northeast and southwest, so it’s huge and there are c…
I’ve always loved fiddling with parts and building new gadgets, so I go to Akihabara regularly (back in Korea it was Yongsan). These days Akiba is completely taken over by moe and maid stuff, but I’…

Chaeun is a Chinese restaurant in Sinsa-dong with a stylish interior. This was my first time going to a meetup of a certain gourmet club in Seoul, and since the end of the year was so hectic, I showed up witho…
I came back to Korea after a long while, and with the weather this cold it’s only natural to crave winter food. I went with members of my foodie club to Pyeongando Mandujip in Gwanghwamun, famous for its…
