Osaka & Kyoto, Japan

[vhanya]

Di naman hassle

[yapeegurl]

cream_puff11, hindi ko na maalala kung saan kami nila dinala. Galing kasi kami sa office ng husband ko sa Chiyoda area. Pero nag Metro pa kami going to the place.

vhanya, tama! Shabu shabu nga kami nung night na iyon. Thin cut siya. Next time talaga Kobe naman try ko. Nakakatakam ha! hahaha Kami nagpunta sa tuna auction sa Tsukiji. Sobrang sarap talaga! Sea urchin naman favorite ko dito. Sa ramen naman, medyo naumay ako sa sobrang linamnam. Ang cruncy pala ng Takoyaki diyan pero ang sarap! Dito sa Singapore meron din kasi takoyaki pero malambot. Diyan crunchy ang pagkakaluto. Hindi nga kami kumakain sa mga fine dining restaurants since we were advised that anywhere in Japan is A-OK.

May parang yellow rice-shaped cereal kasi sila sinasama sa takoyaki that's why it's a lil crunchy. Gusto ko nga eh hehe. The only fine dining resto we ate in Japan is the Kaiseki experience. Kasi sabi sakin, you really have to splurge for the Kaiseki meal. Tama naman sila kasi it was one of my most unforgettable dining experience to date =)

Next Japan trip ko next year, we will try the resto of Jiro Ono in his tiny shop in Tokyo. Sana makakuha ako ng slot. Im booking na nga ngayon eh hehe. I heard he is the #1 sushi master in the world.
I will go back to Tsukiji market also. Last time kasi late ako nagising sa lamig kaya never ako naka-try ng sushi nila early morning hehe.

Will take note of that Kaiseki and Jiro Ono for our next Japan trip

[vhanya]

Sure sis! Already saving up for the Jiro Ono experience eh lols! For authentic Kaiseki, it has to be in Kyoto =)

How many travel days do we need if IT involves Tokyo-Osaka-Kyoto? Thanks! 

[vhanya]

^minimum 10days pero amaring race yan hehe. safe would be 2 weeks =)

[yapeegurl]

Agree ako sa 10 days vacation. Bitin na bitin kasi ang 6 days namin. Hindi kami nakapag Osaka and Kyoto. Tokyo and Hiroshima lang.

[meimei]

we're planning to go to this area in Japan! Osaka will be our base, then also visit the nearby areas such as Kyoto, Nara and Kobe. pero sa April/May 2015 pa - kailangan muna mag-ipon!

not planning to go to Tokyo, masyadong malayo. so for our intended itinerary, ok na siguro 6D/5N. grabe ang aga ko mag-plano, hahaha! ganito talaga ko.
