This time I also introduce lunch box.
I often use Shinkansen and have lunch box.
The following is the picture of Asakusa Imahan lunch box.
"Imahan" is the name of restaurant in Asakusa and in Kanji "Ima=今=now" and "Han=半=half".
You can access the following Imahan's homepage.

According to Imahan's homepage, this restaurant was established in 1895(28th in Meiji period) and has so long history.
The taste of lunch box is good !
I often have business trip and like to have travel. In this blog, I would like to introduce hotels I stayed at for now. Besides I also introduce restaurant, the scene etc. From 2017, we started introducing "Golf Course" I visited.

Fukagawa Meshi(Rice) in Shinkansen
When I went to Osaka on business, I took Shinkan-sen and bought lunch box, named "Fukagawa Meshi".
"Fukagawa" is the place name and "Meshi" means "rice" in English, the same as "Gohan" in Japanese.
It is said that much marine products were landed at Fukagawa in Edo period and the name of lunch box has roots in that.
What on the rice are boiled-conger, goby, asari clam and seasoning is a bit of sweet.(But it is different from "sweet" of ”sweets" such as chocolate, manjyu(in Japanese).

Shibuya Scramble Crossing
I heard that the scramble crossing at Shibuya is famous and popular to the foreign traveler to Japan and take pictures when they come.
They say that it is amazing why the people crossing never hit each other.
Living in Japan, we think it as usual but I can understand what the foreigner is considering.
I just found this crossing live movie in youtube and introduce it although it has nothing to do with hotel.
As it is "live movie" as I mentioned, it is better you see when it is crowded (about from 9:00 to 20:00) (Japan time zone is GMT+9)
What do you think, seeing it ??

Beef Tongue Lunch Box in Shinkansen
When I visited to Osaka, I took Shinkansen.
As it was almost just noon, I bought Lunch Box of beef tongue.
Beef tongue is very popular in Japan, especially for "Yaki-Niku".
Different from other meat such as roast, diaphragm, sparerib, beef tongue is bit of to hard to chew and I think it is so delirious.

[Introducing Hotel] Vol048 Taiwan Taipei Deja Vu Hotel
I went to Taiwan/Taipei on business last week and stayed at "Deja Vu Hotel" in Taipei.
In Vol.048, I would like to introduce this hotel.
Please see the following film.
This hotel is near Zhongxiao Fuxing station of Wenhu line(MRT) and it takes a few mins on foot.
The department store(SOGO) is just on Zhongxiao Fuxing station and there are many restaurants and shops, such as Taiwanese food, Hong Kong food, Cafe, Massage etc.
On the other side of entrance, there is a park named "大安公園" and also local convenience-store (Hi-life). I think it is so so convenient.
The staff of this hotel is friendly and the room is good.
There is a restaurant on B1F and we can take breakfast there.
As for the room charge, it was about US$70/day when I made a reservation in Ctrip (http://jp.ctrip.com/).
*) I checked several web-sites of hotel-reservation such as Agoda, Tripadviser etc. and found Ctrip offered the cheapest price.
I was worrying that we could make a reservation because it was the first time to use Ctrip but got it.
I recommended to stay at this hotel when you come to Taipei !
