Back to our 2010 Sakura Culinary Trip series! Harajuku (原宿) is our next stop! Harajuku is the fashion capital of the world – internatinonal designer brands and local Japanese favourites all situated in this little suburb!
I was looking for the Best Japanese Omelette Rice in Tokyo and found this Apple Tree recommended by a number of foodies and travel guides. Apple Tree is hiding at the basement of Omotesando (表参道), the busiest road in Harajuku. We ordered the signature dish Omelette Rice with Tomato Sauce and Curry. There are only about eight seats in this tiny basement eatery and the queue is never-ending! We were pretty impressed when our omelette rice arrived, full of colours and aroma! Fried rice was carefully wrapped in a soft and fluffy omelette and both of the accompany sauces just brough the dish to the next level! Delicious!!!
After lunch we kept walking on Omotesando and visited our favourite Japanese toy flagstore – Kiddyland. Kiddy Land is a 5 storey building situated at the prime spot of Omotesando. It is magical kingdom not only for kids but also for adults like us, once you go inside you don’t want to come out ever again!
