Tokyo Coffee
These are my favorite coffee shops in Tokyo! Dennisと申します、宜しくお願いいたします。 I translated the international bestseller コーヒーが冷めないうちに to Swedish, which was released in May 2024 with Mius förlag. As it happens, I'm a massive coffee nerd, and in my opinion, no one does coffee better than the Japanese. The attention to detail and love for the craft is unmatched.

Inokashira Park
@kingkogi
Inokashira Park (井の頭恩賜公園, Inokashira Onshi Kōen) has a large lake filled with lots of adorable wildlife as well as gorgeous bridges. The whole park is surrounded by cherry blossom trees during spring, and the plum trees bloom early. There is a petting zoo with a famous Guinea pig area with an adorable bride parade as they head back home to their hutches for the night. You can also pet the Guinea pigs and just be happy.

Om vädret är klart så man kan se Fuji från utkikspunkt eller restaurangen. Åk Enoden-linjen från kamakura och ta cykel hem till kamakura på 45 min.

Enoshima Uomi-tei
@dennisjohansson
ÖVERSATT FRÅN HEMSIDAN: "Terrassens sittplatser med en spektakulär utsikt och sittplatserna vid fönstret inuti är det ofta fullt, så vi rekommenderar att du anländer före lunch. Om du har tur kan du njuta av din måltid medan du tittar på solnedgången över berget Fuji."
