auto repair shop steez a la n hoolywood sounds amazing.

herpsky, (unless you're waiting for toj) might as well go with apc again. my NS are the indigo denimz i wear.

I really like yusuke guest vocals in KOOP.

Agreed. I need to check out Little Dragon

oh no - dr no's oxperiment

yeah, major disappointment. I wonder if the online store is not really done yet, or if they're only ever gonna offer "under summit wear" online. Now it doesn't matter whether you access "all items" och "under summit wear" - it's still the same...

armegeddon is perfection.

where can I get some naruyoshi kikuchi? is he any good? looking for the "flowers and water" album he did with hiroshi minami.

what spot serves the best gyouza in tokyo? some days i feel i could live my whole life entirely off of those things.

You went to the showroom? What was your opinion on this collection? AFAIK, Yohji is not something you often wear, but it would be interesting to hear your reaction to the clothes. I'm not very fond of the lookbook looks but perhaps the clothes/outfits were nicer/better presented in the showroom..? Looking forward to your pics.

find any nice cafes this time around?

did any of ya'll ever go to A to Z in aoyama? gud fud, gud view, nice staff, decent music.

the attachment tee i bought yesterday is too small. mad

their sz 2 is like XS. fuck that shit.

can't you just exchange it? their sizes run up to 5 right? i'm guessing sz 5 just about fits a 50..?

great post. thanks for the heads up on some of these spots.

This looks stunning. Great thing that the body length can easily be adjusted, sealed the deal for me. Just need to sell some shit to fund this piece.

I still like that spot near the river. Bakery on the 1st floor and cafe on top.

Is this where Cafe Madeleine is someitmes/usually/always(?) parked?

If you're by yourself and looking for just a cup of coffee, I guess cow books works. everything for the freedom.

yes, this thread needs more cafe recommendations. Will definitely check out Eau next time I'm in Tokyo. Thanks.

I think Sign is cool, mainly for the location though. Mother Kurkku and Escalator Cafe in Harajuku is/was decent.

Combine in Nakame had great and reasonably priced lunches the few times I went.

web @ mishuku crossing in ikejiri used to be decent, for a smaller club. i liked it.

sancha and nakameguro are probably pretty comparable in terms of pricing. both outside yamanote, but still great locations.

still, it all depends on the size of the apartment, when it was built, and how far it is from the station. I would say you can probably find a greater variety of attractive options in the Sancha area. Its more dense living though so trains are crowded, but arguably more dining choices, etc. Nakameguro apartments tend to be a little farther from the station, and many are really old for the cost. you just have to look around.

Also, fuck living in kichijoji. That place is fine for a day trip, but trekking into the city on the regular is inconvenient, not to mention trying to taxi home...

Yeah, I agree. There's definitely a nice variation of sake bars, restaurants and small clubs in the sancha area if you're looking around a bit. Like you said, Kichijoji is great for day trips but perhaps not for living. I figured Nakameguro might be more popular due to proximity to daikanyama and ebisu. On the other hand, sangenjaya is walking distance (well..) to both shimokitazawa and nakameguro. I wouldn't mind living in any of these areas.

a couple pages back I said I would be staying in Koenji for the first half of August. well plans changed up and instead I'll be subletting an apartment in Sangenjaya with these 2 breezies. Thankfully this place will be much closer to where the action is...

how much are they paying for their place? I wouldn't mind living in sancha again, it's really nice. den-en-toshi in rush hour is terrible though, as mentioned. If I go back I figured I'd end up in koenji/kichijoji or some place similar since it'd be cheaper... I wouldn't mind nakame though. Would nakameguro be a lot more expensive than, say, sangenjaya?
