"In every color"

Referring to one of my previous entries, I compiled a list of dishes to eat once my stomach got better. I already mentioned that I devoured yummy curry the other day and I ate it last night as well. :9 That stuff is damn good. Especially when it's homemade (I like to add apples for a little sweetness).

Yesterday, I met up with some friends in Shinjuku and did the usual: had lunch, checked out the newly opened Forever 21 (not so usual but it seems that they open a new store here every second), and took purikura. On the way home, I stopped by the department store near the station. There's something about department stores that give me this uplifting and sophisticated feel as everything there is pretty pricey. The bottom floors are my favorite: the food department.

There's always an array of snacks, pastries, and lunch boxes which are usually famous for being televised as the "best of the best" or the "seasonal" products. Labeling products as so get the people here all worked up and rushing to the department stores to try it themselves and buy it as souvenirs or welcoming gifts. It's really ridiculous how people here feel obligated to bring something with them when visiting someone's house, even if you go there every week.

I usually just go there for the free samples. :9


But, this time I actually bought something. It's something on my list too.






MACAROONS!
And in every color, as I said before. I'm in love with macaroons, especially from this store (Dalloyau). They're made fresh and the taste is not too sweet which makes it go so well with tea.


All the different flavors




Excuse my chipped nail polish.


Of course, I don't intend on eating these all by myself. Sharing is caring. <3


Goodness, I think the rainy season has begun here in Tokyo. Good-bye, sunshine! See you next monthって感じ。 At least I finally bought my rain boots this past weekend.

Are you ready boots?

How could I have missed this post! Did you go to Isetan in Shinjuku? I think it's my favourite department store, they have everything and I love Japanese fashion!!! The food halls are fantastic, too. That macaroon is extremely green...
