100 Yen Shops, Groceries/Supermarkets ( Shinjuku )
I live near what used to be a 99 shop. In addition to selling all the things you'd expect a 100 yen shop to sell, they also carry food! I stay well away from the meats, but the rest of the selection...

Hanazono Jinja is conveniently located close to Shinjuku station, so you can get a few prayers in without missing your lunch hour. But seriously, Hanazono is a nice little Jinja to visit. There's no E...
Unfortunately, this park closes at 5 like most others in Japan. The grass is fuller in this park than I've seen elsewhere and the scenery is picture perfect. It makes a great place for a picnic, aside...
