... but be prepared to spend anything from $100 each on up, depending on your wine selection. In fact, if you decide to go with the chef's tasting, paired with wines, figure on $200+ per person. If budget is not an issue then definitely give Coi (www.coirestaurant.com) - (415) 393-9000 - a try. A variety of dishes served Kaiseki style, paired with some excellent wine choices, and the owner / chef gets his fish in fresh from the famous Tokyo fish market in Tsukiji every ...

It started to rain so I headed back to the hostel to wind down after all that pushing and shoving and sheer number of people. So here I am, a week to go. I love the place, its colourful and chaotic.

Some theatres were rumored to have elaborate screening rooms with table service and so we chose a theatre with one of these "premier screening rooms" at Rappongi Hills.

A slow morning using the internet and lounging, until we remember that the main post office in Tokyo closes at 12:30 on Sundays and the trip takes about an hour and we don't know exactly where it is. We quickly gather our stuff, see none of the friends we've made at Hibari House and so head out the door. We wedge the postcard into the door of the sushi restaurant as we walk to the train.
