Keyakizaka at the Grand Hyatt Roponggi

By | Foodie, Travel | No Comments

This feature was left out because I was not able to try this restaurant in Tokyo but my sister did and I remembered to ask her to send me the photos so I could share it because she told me that it was a really good teppanyaki restaurant.  It was New Year’s Day and many places are closed in Tokyo.  They went to the Roponggi area to go to church and then walked around searching for a place to eat lunch and they discovered this place at the Grand Hyatt Hotel

My Kitchen by Chef Chris

By | Foodie | 2 Comments

We finally got to try the restaurant of Chef Chris Locker.  It’s a bit far for us but we took advantage last year during the All Saints All Souls Day holiday when many people were out of town so it was easy to get there

Offices

Sharing with all of you – my faithful and loyal viewers 🙂  – my home office! This is where I do a lot of my non-office work! 🙂  It’s an office where I can have my own space, do what I want, put whatever I want and where I do all my personal stuff   

Of course it’s pink and it has lots of hearts!
