Our first dinner

(Originally posted March 13th 2011)

We know, we know, it's been a whole week and a day since we moved here. And we've been been meaning to set up this blog so you can see what we're up to but, well, then there was a bit of an earthquake so everything was paused while we waited for the ground to stop shaking. (It, um, still hasn't quite stopped...)
But now we've finally got around to writing some bits and pieces, so here's a little picture of the restaurant we went to on our first night here:



We wandered from our apartment in Aoyama down to Shibuya, which is a central area full of bars, clubs and crazy neon lights. This is a ramen restaurant where you stand outside looking at the huge picture menu, then order from the machine below. You are then given a ticket which you take inside and pass to a cook, and within a few minutes you have a steaming hot bowl of ramen. Who needs waiters when you have machines...?
