citylikeyou — Drip — Tokyo by Lyla Lee

Tokyo / Cafe

The steep steps to Drip looks just like the entrance to many traditional Kissaten (Japanese coffee house/cafe) which are located on the second or third floor of the building. Well the inside is a creative blend and brew of modern interiors, new classic menu and contemporary vibes. I had my first Tokyo style cream soda and pudding. They were so good! The shelf of the owner is a big love too. I can easily spend a long day here with good reads and good drinks.

Tokyo / Island

Izu-Oshima is a small island which takes about two and a half hours by speedboat from the center of Tokyo. It is 120km away, but still is "Tokyo". The island welcomes you with a distinctive landscape, having Mt.Mihara, a sacred volacano at the center. Travelers will fully realize how small they are facing the majestic landscape of Izu-Oshima.

Tokyo / Museum

Skip the museum itself if you want, as the garden of this place is the nicest part. Green and quiet, you will forget you are in the middle of Tokyo

Tokyo / Shop

Probably I think I spend money most in the life there. It is small store, but it is a sophisticated one. Especially there are good books of art and design. I go there four or five times a week. I wish they make the reward card!

Tokyo / Shop

I want to buy everything in store. Super cute place that stocks great things.

Tokyo / Restaurant
