Wandering Fel

The last day of 8D Avia Japan Tour ended in Tokyo with a visit to the ever-crowded Shibuya crossing and Odaiba, a reclamation land located a distance away from downtown Tokyo. I know that Shibuya has always been a popular meeting spot but I was so overwhelmed with the number of people lingering around in front of Shibuya station where Hachiko statue is located on a Sunday. There is street performance there too with a band playing out some music and the noise of the crowd is enough to mumble out the sound of their performance. If you play Persona 5 on Playstation 4, you will be amazed at the details of Shibuya in the game. Because they are exactly the same with probably exception of political speech because it’s not yet election season. Haha. 

 

We spent probably around 15 - 20 minutes in Shibuya crossing because we wanted to capture a selfie of ourselves crossing the famous 6-way crossing. I suppose only tourist do that so some people (mostly foreigners) photo-bomb our shots. It was fun experience though. After we got tired of crossing the crossings, we made our way to the last stop of our tour that day, Odaiba. The reservartion for our dinner was made at 7PM so we had a bit of free time to explore Odaiba. However, we were advised not to run so far because of the risk getting lost and moreover, the tour guide did not inform us our dinner place so unfortunately, we did not dare to go see Gundam statue. Diver City is located at quite a walking distance from our drop-out point (Aqua City if I’m not mistaken) and it’s not feasible to make my Mum run back-and-forth from Diver City to Aqua City. 

 

I did not really shop much at Aqua City except for a polo t-shirt for my bae from Adidas Originals and Sukiyaki Pringles from the souvenir store at basement level. There is Disney store too so you can get your Disney goodies at Aqua City. At our appointed meeting point, we met up with the tour guides and the rest of the tour participants and made our way to mall called Decks Tokyo Beach to go to Ocean Club Buffet, where our dinner is booked. Buffet in Japan is so interesting because you can see the replica of the food offered in the buffet in front of the restaurant. It seems that Ocean Club Buffet offers international selection of cuisine because I saw all kind of food including Singapore chicken rice. Can you believe that?

 

There are 2 types of plates being used in Ocean Club Buffet, one has 9 slots while the other has 6 slots. These plates are so cute and at the same time it makes you not to be greedy if you want to have 9 variety of dishes on your plate. Hahaha. I wonder if they purposely use these kind of plates to give the kitchen enough time to cook the dishes. Probably that’s the case since Ocean Club Buffet is mostly filled with group tours. Oh my. 

 

Taste-wise, they are pretty good although some items taste so-so. I love the pasta and the pizza though I don’t know why. Italian-Japanese fusion works well for my tastebud I suppose. If you have your dinner here, make sure to take a quick walk to the balcony area of the restaurant to catch pretty view of Odaiba at night.
