At lunch, we had a delicious meal at Italian Japanese restaurant - Ciao!! CENTRO

And, at the corner around Nezu station, there is  Akita-ya (秋田屋) which sells very soft and delicious Japanese traditional dessert.

And, to complete our temple visit, of course, we need to visit Asakusa Kaminarimon Gate!!

As always, it is jammed pack with people.

After Asakusa, we went to Pokemon Center Tokyo DX at Nihonbashi Takashimaya S.C. East Tower 5F. Nearest station - Tokyo Station.

And since we are at Tokyo Station and we liked the service at CASUAL TEPPAN DATE (カジュアル 鉄板 伊達) , we went there for dinner once again...

Before we go back to hotel, we bought some delicious Now On Cheese at their Tokyo station branch
