Going Italian in Tokyo

We got in cold and wet this afternoon and settled in our room to do some major planning for our trip to Myanmar in late November. Bear’s job was to find the best way from Lake Inle to the Allied War Cemetery close to the River Kwai (on the Burmese side) and I had to research Bagan and places not to miss. A marginally successful time when Bear announced he fancied Italian for supper. OK, not what I expected in Tokyo but off we went. Still raining, we were chuffed to see Bee Cargoworks and their happy little mascot.

Just a short walk from our hotel and Bear is opening the door for me to step into little Italy.

Italian prints on the wall and an authentic menu, save for a few local additions.

What was new to us was when we pressed the gadget on the table, our table number popped into the box on the wall – waiter came running, pad at the ready. What a really clever idea, we have had vibrating plastic blobs telling us our table was ready, or our order was complete, but never to control our whole meal, it worked really well, very impressive.

Handsome and his carbonara. 
 
 
 
ALL IN ALL A LITTLE GEM
