Day 4 ~ 12.30.2008 ~ Ginza! Lunch & Coffee on Aunt Cyd & Uncle D!

Here Kathryn and I are at Henry Charpenters in Ginza, Tokyo. Aunt Cyd & Uncle D gave us a bit-o-cash for Christmas. We chose to eat lunch on them and get coffee! This restaurant is a very trendy and surprisingly cheap find! Their lunch specials are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Our hotel was wrapped around the corner from this doll of a place! We enjoyed tea, pumpkin soup, a sandwich with salmon and tuna, and a delicious baked pasta with ham and mushrooms! We enjoyed every morsel!! It was then off for shopping in trendy, crazy expensive Ginza and tea, coffee, and chocolates at Gucci cafe :)

Thank you for this fantastic meal!!! :) It was so OISHII! ~ Delicious =D

Kathryn enjoying her sandwich. She was craving western style food soo soon into her trip! She kept saying, "All I want is a sandwich" and so she was able to get one :)

I was unsure of what I was ordering but it ended up being fantastic!
This is us after lunch at the Gucci Cafe in Ginza :) Their new collection is the tattoo collection. Therefore a few of their drinks are inspired by the collection. I ordered the white tattoo cappuccino! How cute is that? "Love Gucci" Ha Ha. Kathryn ordered tea and we shared 2 chocolates. These chocolates are literally the best chocolates I have ever had! Unfortunately, I must travel Tokyo or Milan for these delectable goodness :)

Me enjoying my coffee. This picture is so proper of me - its funny.
Kathryn and I certainly enjoyed our day of eating and shopping together! We love Ginza. However, word of advise if you go - leave your money at home. You will go home with nothing. Well, you won't go home with nothing. You will go home with all the fantastic designer things but had no cash!

Kathryn at the passport check because she made some major purchases!! :) Yay, Sissy!

Me pretending to have bought all of these wonderful things but indeed they are Kathryn's. Actually, the Chanel bag is mine. However, do not be fooled - its only lip gloss. Also, the Gucci bag is filled with chocolates! :)

After all the shopping and eating, it was actually time for us to get something to eat. I wanted to take Kathryn to this adorable French restaurant that I had found back in August. The restaurant is called Cafe Del Sol. We found it and enjoyed a nice dinner before a night of searching where we would go for New Years! We enjoyed salad, pizza, and wine! It was delicious and then a short walk back to our hotel to get ready for the evening.

Once we were ready to go out we went to Dazzle and tried to find the other club that we wished to go to. Kathryn and I walked around and around and around for the longest time to try to find this little trendy hole in a wall. Well, it literally was a hole in the wall and they really want to remain exclusive because they are absolutely impossible to find. But finally with a tiny stroke of luck we found it and it was closed :( So we went back to were we were staying and went to sleep so we could wake up and go to Tsukiji fish market early in the morning to see the first of the fish!
