If you're in Tokyo and you want to hear music, go to Koenji, the home of J-punk and small bars that feel like home. It's close to Shinjuku.

Go to Kappazushi. My boyfriend and I only paid ¥1,500. We ordered "invented sushi," like corn-shrimp gratin sushi. We won a game by putting our plates in a hole!

If you are stopping over in Japan, why not play scissors-paper-stone in a maid cafe? And then follow that up with making a fool of yourself at karaoke.

You should go and do purikura (group photo booths) in Shibuya. Then go shopping at 109-2. The staff are very handsome and the clothes are fantastic.
