It’s not the easiest place to find on foot from Fuchu Station, since it’s tucked away in a residential area. But as soon as you walk in, you’re greeted by a small Japanese-style courtyard that instantly helps you relax. The staff were also incredibly kind, with a warm, welcoming vibe that felt almost like being taken care of by a friendly older sister.
The most impressive part was definitely the eel rice bowl. Especially when the sauce was poured over the steaming hot rice, the aroma was amazing. Once you take a bite, the texture of the eel and the rich sauce blend together perfectly, and it honestly makes you want to keep eating bite after bite. Besides that, the other dishes were also consistently good. It’s definitely a place I’d want to come back to.

SATUDORA Tanukikoji 5-chome Store
SATUDORA Tanukikoji 5-chome Store is located on Tanukikoji 5-chome, part of Sapporo's famous covered shopping arcade in the heart of the city. Surrounded by hotels and popular restaurants serving Hokkaido specialties such as ramen and soup curry, it's a convenient stop for international travelers. The lively Susukino district is also just around the corner, making it easy to drop by before or after a meal.
The storefront looks impressive, and it's also pretty nice to browse inside. However, there are really so many drugstores in Tanukikoji, so I recommend not buying something as soon as you see it. After comparing prices myself, I felt that this store was a little more expensive. The only thing that left a very good impression on me was that there was a restroom available.

Tobu Department Store Ikebukuro
Come one come all to Tobu Department Store Ikebukuro, one of Tokyo’s largest mega retailers made easily accessible thanks to direct access to the west exit of Ikebukuro Station.
Tobu Department Store's selection of outdoor gear was more extensive than I expected. It's convenient for finding equipment for mountaineering, hiking, or everyday travel, with everything from functional everyday clothing to more specialized mountaineering gear. There's also a wide variety of styles and sizes, and you can compare different brands in one place.

Toyosu Senkyaku Banrai
This new arm of Toyosu Market opened in February 202, buzzing with two areas to explore: a hub of food and tasty bites at Toyosu Jogai Edomae Ichiba and the hot springs day spa Tokyo Toyosu Manyo Club for all the best of food, shopping and ease at the hot springs.
I highly recommend trying the fresh seafood! Since it’s right next to Toyosu Market, the sashimi and seafood bowls are both super fresh.
The footbath upstairs is also definitely worth checking out. You can soak your feet while enjoying the view of Tokyo Bay. It’s a really nice place to relax after walking around, and the footbath is free to use. -
