Events in Tokyo continue from yesterday.
This time, a boy who used to visit our store in Hiroshima,
I heard that he had gotten a job at a cool shop in Ebisu, so I stopped by.
I won't mention the name of the store because I view it as a rival (lol)
Actually, it's one of the shops in Tokyo that I've been interested in for a while.
I've always wanted to go there, but I never expected that someone I knew would be working there.
I had planned to have a leisurely chat, buy some glasses, and go home.
I didn't have time to look around the store, let alone talk.
Since customers keep coming in, we left early this time.
The location is about 5 minutes from the Ebisu rotary.
Although it is located next to Margiela, it is not easy to access.
Anyway, people are coming in droves.
I had heard in advance that there might be restrictions on entry, but there were more customers than I expected.
As expected from a rival store...
On this day, I met up with my sister's family at Cafe La Boheme in Shirokane.
We all had dinner together at Stellato .
My brother-in-law had been wanting to go there for a while, so his wish came true.
This place holds live performances on stage every night, mainly featuring Spanish performers.
It's usually a busy and popular restaurant, but on this day it was almost completely reserved.
The manager said, ``All the rich people are on vacation and aren't in Tokyo.''
Now that I think about it, I remembered that there are surprisingly few people in Tokyo during Golden Week and New Year's holidays even in places that are a little further away.
It may be true that the real rich people travel abroad, but
When I was working in Tokyo, a wealthy customer told me,
“I go on a trip overseas every year during Golden Week, but it’s a waste because the travel expenses are more than five times as much.”
I've heard that just being able to travel overseas is amazing, but the travel expenses are 5 times as much...
The person who told me this story was a Moroccan manager.
Sometimes the Spanish vocalist will talk to me after the live show.
I'm performing live, but there are Americans, maybe Japanese, and people from other countries.
My brother-in-law is Tunisian...
It's been a long time since I've been to a place where various races are mixed together.
In the end, we speak in Japanese and English,
Arabic for some people.
I feel like taking a light trip abroad (lol)
Margherita is a universal food and no one dislikes it.
The menu is the same as La Boheme downstairs,
How many times have I eaten this margherita?
When I finish work late at night and go out for drinks,
When celebrating with a couple,
When you are bored and want to eat out of desperation...
As much as I miss this pizza,
I feel that the number of Neapolitan pizza shops has really increased these days.
About 20 years ago, there were foods that could only be eaten in urban areas.
Nowadays, you can easily eat it in both rural and suburban areas.
Pizza lovers can't be happier.
Actually, I decided to go to Stellato this time because
My brother-in-law and the Moroccan manager have known each other for nearly 30 years.
When the manager came to Japan and had no job or money,
Apparently, his brother-in-law did not lend him a large sum of nearly 300,000 yen, but rather "gave it to him."
It seems that he still remembers his kindness and treats me well every time something happens.
He treats me like a ``brother'' and I love him.
This time, he took me there because he wanted to introduce me to his family.
Normally, it would cost tens of thousands of yen for the seat fee and charge fee.
My child can't help but dance when he hears Latin music.
During the performance, I always ran to the front row and danced the entire time (lol)
Ah, the one holding the child is my brother-in-law.
The night I spent in Shirokane after a long time,
It reminded me of those nostalgic days.
secrets in Tokyo
・If you want to go to a famous restaurant that is a little far away, go during Golden Week. There are many holidays during the New Year.
・Sometimes the person you pass by is incredibly wealthy. Only such people are a little sloppy.
・The number of foreigners remains the same as ever. For now, being able to speak English is better than Japanese.
・It's not that people in Tokyo are cold, they're just not interested in other people. By the way, almost 80% are from local areas.
・The people at the store may seem troublesome when you talk to them, but they are actually kind-hearted. Don't look up at me every time.
- Foreign cars with Shinagawa license plates are often owned by seriously wealthy people. The latest model is almost Shinagawa number.
-Many people achieve success in business at a young age. Although the manager's daughter is young, she is on the verge of becoming a millionaire.
・Everyone loves Margherita.
