A taste of real life

We had to have a quick dinner last night before going out with the local photog - so we tried a Japanese fast food joint.  You pick what you want from the plates of plastic replica food and then put your money into a vending machine using a corresponding number to the plate you want, which spits out a ticket. You give the ticket to the cook and 5 min later - he shouts out your number. Dinner is served..

Apparently there are people specially employed to make these plastic food replicas

Insert the money & get a ticket

The cook & Mrs cook. He just put on a frown face for the camera

And at the opposite end of the spectrum these are a few pics from the food emporium in shopping centre in and under Shibuya station.

Beautiful Bento boxes

We stopped to watch, she was peeling Kiwifruit
