Keibunsha - Kyoto



Keibunsha is a bookstore, gallery and craft store. They sell hand crafted items as well as items from around the world. The most of the books are about art, design and culture. I could spend hours here.

We bought some dead stock retro glasses, cute matchboxes and hand crafted chopsticks.

Nakatanaka - Fukuoka




Nakatanaka - Fukuoka
Great little restaurant in Fukuoka, Japan. You choose 2 items from a list on the menu and it comes with all you can eat rice and soup. I had the fried shrimp and chicken nanban (fried chicken with a tartar sauce). All for about $7.50 (u.s.)
