Today I would like to inform everyone of a new campaign we are starting at our cafe--

Happy Hour!

Everyday from 4pm to 9pm you can enjoy our entire cocktail menu for only 300 yen!

Cheap, no? Today I would like to introduce a couple of our staff favourites...

Rum and Coke, made with a special Jamaica brand rum.

A popular choice among those not too keen on alcohol-- Cassis Orange!

One of our special dessert cocktails-- Toffee Nuts Chichi.

I love milky cocktails such as this one.. and it has the sweet aroma of nuts and caramel yum.

Hello, hello, hoping everyone is doing well.

For today`s blog I wanted to introduce to everyone my dinner the other night!

Dinner? Snack? I suppose it could be both...

King-sized cup noodles!

This famous brand of instant noodles recently released this very popular item for its 40th anniversary. Compared to the normal-sized cup noodles its a little more then double its size.

And for those looking for a variation on your everyday old noodles,

You can try eating it with my personal favourite toppings--

A raw egg and Tabasco!

It`s really quite good.

Often you can see our hotel guests lounging in our cafe having cup noodles.

Next time I suggest you try it with some extra toppings!

Recognising Japanese Coins

Hello!!

Hope everything is fine!!!

Today I would like to introduce the Japanese coins.

Since I've seen many people doubting about how much one money cost ( including myself at first), I think it may be useful for those who are coming to Japan to have a quick check to this picture.

As you can see here, there are 500, 100, 50, 10 5, and 1 yen coins. Now it seems to be easier than it is, when they are in your pocket or wallet, and they aren't so new, sometimes it become a hard job to guess the value of them.

Origami is a traditional Japanese art of paper folding.

In Japan is so popular, that everybody knows how to do some figures, something that surprised me a lot at first. Then, I realized in Japan, children learn this art in the kinder garden school.

At first they learn basic things like this:

But some skilful people can do awesome figures:

I am impressed about what they can do with a piece of paper!!

inizia ad Aprile,finisce a Marzo.

Questo e' il sistema scolastico giapponese da molti anni

Universita' di Tokyo detto Todai,ha deciso di adottare il nuovo anno scolastico

(quello a pertire da settembre)fra 5 anni.

Sotto questa glabalizazione e forte calo dei giovani di recente,

per accogliere piu' stranieri,per facilitare il cambiamento scolastico,

l'universita' piu' prestigiosa nipponica ha messo un passo avanti per il futuro.

da questo punto di vista,il Giappone deve essere internazionale piu' presto possibile!

Do you know this famous cat?

It's so famous in Japan, and even all around the world.This is a Japanese sculpture, made of ceramic but also can be made by plastic and other materials. It is said that this sculture will bring good luck to its owner.

As this cat is getting older, its shapes and colours and from are changing, and know they can be even electric. don't get surprise if you see this cat moving its arm as if it was bowing^^

Nowadays this cat became so popular in China that many people believe that its origin comes from China... But this is a 100% Japanese cat;)

Hola amigos,

El otro día os hablé del sushi, pues hoy toca el sashimi.

Aún siendo un amante del sushi, tengo que reconocer que hay veces que me apetece tomar sashimi.

Sashimi es un plato de pescado crudo, normalmente acompañado de Daikon ( Nabo) cortado en hilos y cualquier otra decoración como flores comestibles, como podeis ver en esta foto... Pero lo que nunca puede faltar es el wasabi y la salsa de soja:)
