Sugoi! This was on my 2023 list but had to be moved to 2024 list. Ran out of time. Thanks for this great video!
Great to have more things to return to! haha
shimokita is such a maze!!
A total maze I wanna return to explore more of!
Been a while since I was last there in 2015, I think it’s much more developed now. It was halloween and it was jam-packed so we left. Will put it back on the to do list.
It makes for a nice few hour stop to check out some of the things i mention :)
Damn, another part of Tokyo that I had no idea about. I knew about second hand shops in Tokyo but didn't know there was an area that had a concentration of them. I am really interested in Ten though. Apparently my Scottish grandfather started me on tea as a baby and it stuck, as I don't care for coffee and almost never drink it. But tea, now there's a place I could spend an hour or two at. I will be darkening Ten's door probably more than once. My Tokyo education continues, thanks Nathan.
Yay! Ten is certainly a place worth visiting especially with the special Ninja monkey discount haha
Another cool area is Koenji, Jim. Lots of thrift stores there.
@@cvodb My tendency is to get out of cities into rural and small towns. Never really studied much about Tokyo just hit some of the major tourist spots. But looking at spending more time in the city on next trip. So learning what I don't know. Which it turns out to be a lot more than I thought, I didn't know. Thanks for more tips.
It looks amazing! I think I need to try that sparkling tea ❤
Your Guide seems really friendly ! Ten tea stand looks so cool, but i would be scared to go in lol.I could imagine me spending hour going through all those thrift store! Thank you for the video
Akiko is great, she's a subscriber and awesome person.. Dont be scared of the tea shop!
Very awesome, dude! I don't think I've seen a video on this area yet. Cool!
Great area to visit!
hmmm,... I think maybe you will like Mitaka more ... it's so green and beautiful ... Dasai Osamu committed suicide here but I can't find exactly where ...
Just wanted to report back and say that the TEN tea stand is excellent! I had the matcha with a nice bean sweet that was shaped to signify the Year of the Dragon. Unfortunately they didn’t know about you or the discount, but they were very sweet nonetheless. Considering how strong our pound/dollar is by comparison, it’s more than fine to pay the regular price.
Thank you for supporting TEN and glad you had a great experience. I've reported the issue about the discount and apparently they have recently hired someone new and they will be informed! either way thanks for your support :)
Never been. Interesting
Ohhhh.. no beer there? hehe
It’s aimed at young people 😇
@@cvodb ah. So not me…
