#seafoodlover While this trendy restaurant in Azabudai Hills is known for its pancakes, I discovered a hidden star on the menu: the lobster pasta. Rich, creamy, and generously topped with a beautifully cooked lobster tail, it was both comforting and luxurious—everything a seafood lover could want. The restaurant, called 6th by Oriental Hotel, has a stylish, resort-like vibe with a spacious interior and a lovely terrace perfect for sunny days. It’s a popular spot during lunch hours, so I’d recommend booking online in advance. Why I recommend 6th by Oriental Hotel: ・Hidden gem pasta dish topped with succulent lobster 🦞 ・Great ambiance with both indoor and terrace seating ・Perfect for a chic lunch break or a weekend date 📍6th by Oriental Hotel, Azabudai Hills, Tokyo #TokyoDining #LobsterPasta #AzabudaiHillsEats #HiddenGemsTokyo #SeafoodLuxury #TripcomCommunity #LunchSpotTokyo #TokyoRestaurants

Starbucks never fails to impress with its prime locations, and this outlet at Kokyo Gaien Wadakura Fountain Park is one of the most scenic I’ve visited. Nestled beside a historic storehouse structure, this café is beautifully set against the backdrop of Tokyo’s imperial parklands. We dropped by for a break, and it was just perfect. Whether you’re seated indoors or outside, you’re treated to tranquil views of the fountain park, lush greenery, and elegant architecture. It’s a great spot for people-watching or simply soaking in the peaceful vibes of the area—something rare in the hustle of Tokyo. The coffee is what you’d expect from Starbucks: consistent and comforting. But the ambience here elevates the whole experience. If you’re in the area visiting the Imperial Palace or strolling through the gardens, I highly recommend making a stop here. It’s a quiet little retreat in the heart of the city. #summervacay #StarbucksJapan #TokyoCafeViews #WadakuraFountainPark #ImperialPalaceTokyo #CoffeeWithAView #TokyoTravel #HiddenGemsTokyo #japan #japantrip #tohoku #travel #tohokutrip

#cityplaybook #Nakameguro #MeguroRiverTokyo #TokyoStrolls #SakuraSpot #TokyoCafes #UrbanNatureTokyo #JapanVibes #HiddenGemsTokyo #MeguroMoments #TokyoSpringMagic Nakameguro, nestled along the Meguro River in central Tokyo, is more than just a cherry blossom hotspot—it's a neighborhood brimming with artistic energy, stylish cafes, indie boutiques, and serene river views. A walk through Nakameguro is like stepping into a calm, curated Tokyo scene—where the urban pulse slows just enough to let you soak it all in. Come spring, the riverbanks are draped in delicate pink petals as cherry blossoms bloom in a breathtaking display. Lanterns are strung along the path, setting the mood for evening hanami (flower-viewing) walks. The Sakura Festival draws crowds, but the vibe remains relaxed and cozy, especially when you’re sipping rosé under the blossoms or enjoying a sakura latte at a riverside café. Beyond cherry blossom season, Nakameguro remains a top pick for Tokyo explorers. The district has a creative edge—galleries, vintage shops, and minimal concept stores line its narrow streets. It's also a foodie’s paradise, with everything from craft coffee and vegan treats to upscale izakayas and Michelin-starred sushi tucked into quiet corners. The Meguro River promenade is a year-round draw, with leafy green paths in summer, vibrant foliage in fall, and serene reflections in winter. Whether you're a local catching up with friends or a traveler looking for Tokyo’s softer side, Nakameguro offers the perfect backdrop. Only a few minutes from Shibuya or Shinjuku by train, Nakameguro feels like a secret haven. If you love slow travel, seasonal charm, and stylish surroundings, this is your Tokyo sweet spot.

I went to Showa Kinen Park expecting a casual stroll and maybe a few nice flower pics… I was not ready for the sheer scale, color, and sense of freedom this place gives you. From the moment I passed through the gates, it felt like I entered a different world—one filled with endless fields, secret gardens, and winding paths that seemed to go on forever. The skies were impossibly blue, the sun beamed down, and every corner of the park felt like it had its own personality. First came the flower fields—massive, radiant bursts of poppies, tulips, and sunflowers (depending on the season) rolling across gentle hills. It was like walking through a painter’s dream. Then came the Waterfowl Lake, where people were lazily paddling boats under tree-lined skies. The breeze, the sun, the laughter from families and couples all around—it was one of those “life is good” moments. But what surprised me most? The scale. There are hidden bonsai gardens. Forest adventure zones. Wildflower meadows. A Japanese traditional garden that feels like a Zen dream. I walked over 20,000 steps without even realizing it—every step filled with color, movement, and calm. Showa Kinen Park isn’t just a park. It’s a full-blown adventure. A canvas of nature, art, and peace, just outside Tokyo. #TripMoment #ShowaKinenPark #TokyoEscape #NatureInJapan #HiddenGemsTokyo #ParkAdventure #FlowerSeason #TravelJapan #OutdoorDays #BreatheAndExplore 🌸🌻🚴♀️🌳
