Jalan Jalan Japan: Nakameguro

Nakameguro


Sakura Trees and funky independent shops & stylish life style stores sandwich a canal running through the hip residential district. And if you are feeling peckish there are numerous joints available to fulfill your rumbling tummy.

Here are some interesting shops –


1)Living by Design Green Scape – creating a “moss ball vase” seems to be the in-thing in this neighbourhood. Why not bring back a DIY moss ball pack for your friends with a green thumb?


2) I bumped into a sample sale there. Clothings, accessories and shoes were at a 80% discount to the average retail prices of above 10,000 yen ! If you visit, hopefully you will see other sample sales there too.

3) & Stripe Gear – I know previously I recommended visiting L muse LTD; however this button shop is different as they design and make their own buttons. I spotted buttons filled with wild flowers, figurines, tiny buttons, insects, beans etc. They also have a range of other accessories.


4)Take a break and enjoy Mahakala’s Happy Pudding in a little glass jar. There are various flavours available.

5) If you are an instant noodles fan, head to Tokyu Store Food Market to pick up some unusual flavoured cup noodles. I bought 1) Eco Friendly Cup Noodles(udon and soba) 2) Mini Cup Noodles 3) Western flavoured Cup Noodles – Fettucini Carbonara, Spaghetti Bolognese and Tobiko(Fish Roe) Pasta. Yummy!
