Tokyo Day 3 Part 2: The Chair Shop, Roppongi and Dinner with Takeuchi-san 竹内さん

From Omotesando, we crossed an overhead bridge to walk towards the Shibuya station. This shot was taken from the overhead bridge and I feel it reminds me of Singapore...

Take a break from all that walking.. Look at my tired face...

Tat-chan brought me to an interesting chair shop.. They sell designer shops that cost from few hundreds to up to a few ten thousands dollars per chair.. Some of them are actually Europe imports...

The bottom three pictures are some shops which I felt the design was special...

Walking on a little more, I was distracted by a song I often hear on TV by a band called Perfume... And I found a Truck with their picture, broadcasting their song.. I uploaded the MTV of the song that they were singing for the product.. YOu can see them eat the ice cream pino... Haha... I felt their voice are too 'dae'(dollish)...



We reached the train station and boarding the train, I found something interesting...

After a few stops, we reached Roppongi... We were one and half hour early for meeting Takeuchi-san... So we took a walk around the posh shops of the Roppongi Hills buildings... Where do these buildings remind you of?
Well, the stuff remindsme of Raffles City.. High class and posh... A box of cherry tomatoes for about $400 dollars?
Pet shop!!! And I caught a picture of a cat stretching from its nap!! So cute!!

The long waited dinner finally came and Takeuchi-san treated the both of us to Mexican Food!!!! Gracias!!!

There were NAchos and Tacos and kidney bean sauces and guacamoles, pina colada... MMMM..... hungry liao...
After dinner, we looked for a place to chill... One of our search led us to this underground pub that allows people to play air pistol... And I found this interesting sign... Haha...

But in the end, we settled for this cafe...

Pretty quiet and calm place.. They were playing Coach Carter on their projector screen....
Thanks to Takeuchi-san for the great night and dinner!!!
What's special here? Well, Tat-chan's family name is here... Ookubo=大久保

Slide show for 30th April

Inkte' ART

Dearest Si Han made a trip to my place to deliver mother's Day cupcakes to my mommy... My place? Well, its the new place my family moved to while I was here, in Japan... The unit with the roof garden is my humble abodeSo, Lets start with the kitchen!!! The flooring tile for the kitchen is planks of wooden strip... So this work top with the sink is actually for me to bake..

This is my mum's wet kitchen.. Seriously, its a mess... Mummy is sure not doing any credit to Jes' design... Here's my dearest maid Winna!! Selamat Pagi!!! Boy i miss my maids.. I can't speak malay anymore after speaking more Japanese than English while I'm here...
Thankfully, my part of the kitchen still looks nice... Can you see the hanging lights above the work top? Those are beautiful!!! Plus the bar code glass panel separating the wet and dry kitchen is classic.. Jes added a ceiling fan in my kitchen.. That sure helps while I'm baking there!!! That is when I return.. :S
Here's mummy, pink and blurred.. both in looks and in terms of the photo..HAha...
These things really make Jes' design look less good.. I'm sure I willl do something to this when I'm back.. ** Evil Thoughts **

At least Jes chose nice pendant lamp for my work top... I love these... It totally complements the design of the kitchen...


And here's my beautiful.. Erm... not make that going to be beautiful rooftop garden... Yes.. Look at my embarassing stuff messing up the rooftop garden.. :X

Here's a familiar face.... Mocha!!!! Awww... Ain't he cute... Too bad he's trapped in mum's toilet cuz he doesn't know how to pee... Anyone interested to train him? There will be a reward if you can do it successfully!!!

WHo is this???? Hello Zhi Heng... Your expression gives a good indication of Mango's weight.. and how heavy she has become.. Hahaha... But Mango is so UGLY now!!!! Oh well, I still love her...
Here's Daddy.. Lazing as usual... Jess sure did a good job in making the room comfy for resting.... This is the walk-in wardrobe in mum's room leading to a toilet! Here's my sister's room... She hasn't moved in yet, but when this room has not completed its renovation back then... This is said to be the most beautiful room in the house.. It was supposed to be my room.. But the room my sister was going to take (the one I took) would have costed my mother another bomb. The room my sister was supposed to have is two rooms sharing a toilet.. if she took it she would want the toilet to be knocked down and shifted to another location so the combined room would be bigger.. So I gave up this big beautiful room to save mum that bomb...
As you can see, Jes did a really great job in furnishing it with class!!!!
This was supposedly my toilet, the tiles, shower head and stuff were chosen by moi... But too bad, looks l ike I wun get to shower in the beautiful shower room I wanted to be in...

And this is the sad room I ended up with for giving away my precious! *** Grumble***Grrrr...

But Jes' design does make me feel a little more comforted... This picture is my supposed walk in wardrobe..

So you can see there are a lot of hanging racks for hanging clothes...
And outside that wardrobe is gonna be my study area!!!! So here's my little comfy study area!!!
It looks so comfy, I think I will simply just sleep instead of studying!! more contribution to my falling GPA!!! Hahaha...
Here is a collage of my sleeping room, the room on the other side of the toilet... Yes, I know, my room is weird and funny... But oh well, it suits the owner's personality...
