Tokyo - 4-5-26 & 4-6-26

​In Tokyo, I booked 3 nights at an Airbnb studio in the Ikeburo area, which our friend Susan Greening introduced to us about 4 stays ago in Tokyo.  We like it because it has a transit station, the Ikebukuro Station, and is full of eateries, bakeries and shops. Not unexpectedly, it has gotten more crowded.

In my list of eats were fluffy pancakes, and sushi.

For a late morning snack today, we had the pancakes, and they were more decadent than I had anticipated:

Another dish I had read about was Omurice, which is a soft scrambled/custardy omelette draped over chicken-ketchup fried rice.  We were in a Tokyo mall and stopped for a snack.  I ordered their version, which was pretty good:



For dinner today, we went to my favorite sushi place in the world, Sushi no Uetsune - less than $20 for 9 servings:
