A fake food field day

For any Japanese restaurant owner worth his salt, or perhaps more importantly is subtle with it, Kappabashi-dori in the capital’s Taito-ku is a must see sector of the city.

An area where, as well as offering the kind of welcome one could only dream of,

possesses enough promotional plastic provender to cover all kinds of cuisine,

all the way from the time-honoured,

to Italian.

With an added fondness for floating forks apparently the area’s forte.

Although that’s not to say it’s only models of menus on offer, as there’s also everything else required for readying a restaurant, including the obligatory bowls,

and blades.

Plus that all important necessity for any new eatery, and one that’s both tasteful and a talking point, a Teutonic knight,

or two.

There's also the option of following Tokyo Times by RSS, and now even Twitter too.
