After all business in Pusan, I was looking forward to my first trip to Tokyo. Touched down late, checked into the Granbell Shibuya. $200/night, right near Shibuya Station. Perfect, you can shower and watch the telly at the same time!
Slid over to Le Baron around 1am since Tokyo nightlife doesn't start until around then. Le Baron is a members-only club for the Japanese tastemaker elite. Oh, what?
Me and Marie. Apparently she's a famous celebrity/model/tv host in Japan. I was just trying to pet her head piece.
Some of our JP connects, Haji and Kaji on the left. Sounds like some Japanese tag team wrestling!
Next morning, hopped in a cab..
Got off in Harujuku..
Stopped by the newly minted sneaker shop Kicks Lab. There's Koji and Haji..
Andre, the 'sneaker celeb' in JP..
Took a walk around, looking for some Harujuku girls..
Instead found this French Bulldog..
Circled back and their grand opening party was underway. There's Dre and the wild man Surumaki!
She picked a winner!
Uh oh, Surumaki behind the wheel!
Surumaki takes us to Shinjuku!
Sleeptime. Few days later, wake up, it's slurptime!
Order ahead..
Hearty..
Shibuya Station..
Checked this @ Undercover..
Went to Gonpachi for din din..
Few days later, the rain came.
The calm before the storm..
No wonder everybody smokes in Tokyo.
Dinner reservations by Kawa. Def the best eats of the trip!
Love hotels..
Near Club Air..
Revok..
Few days later, Roppongi Hills..
Dre making an indecent proposal. Lucky he didn't get the X!
So shortly thereafter, he made some fellow Polish friends..
Real good friends!
Last day in Tokyo, what else to do? Grub!
Goodbye for now Japan. Next time, I'll know how to count to 10! Promise!
