Have you heard of the rise of thrifting culture in Japan? It’s especially becoming popular among the fashion girlies! Shops like 2nd Street and Book-off Bazaar have been the main attraction since the lift of the COVID travel ban. These two are actually my go-to however, I’m actually hoping to discover more shops that offer authentic vintage pieces.
I love fashion, no I’m actually obsessed! I use my days off to find new shops and new fashion pieces. I wear these to dinner parties or when I go cafe hopping with friends but, what I love the most is styling them in my room and taking thousands of pictures.
I’ve visited the Book-off Bazaar in Ofuna, Kawasaki and, Osaka so far I’ve collected some items which I’m proud to say have made my outings a little bit more fun. They are very affordable and, cute; not to mention how expensive they actually are if you buy them from the original store.
I will be visiting one of the biggest shops in Kawasaki; which was suggested by the Nova staff and, I will keep you updated.
For American food, ①I’ve always enjoyed eating a hamburger with classic American cheese,②although I never have pickles on my burger, because I believe their taste is too strong and ③ overpowers the taste of everything else. When dining at a fine restaurant,④ I’ll almost always order a large steak, usually a ribeye (サーロイン) that’s cooked medium and accompanied with a potato side.
As Japanese food is concerned.⑤I have always liked most Japanese food like sushi, teriyaki, and tempura. Despite originating in China and most Japanese people considering it to be Chinese food, ramen is considered a Japanese recipe by most countries, including my own. My personal favorite is tonkotsu ramen with ⑥ extra chashu roast pork, but without moyashi bean sprouts. For sushi, I always order the classic Maguro Bluefin Tuna (akami, Chutoro, and Otoro plus Kamaotoro if available) and Salmon nigiri.

① I’m a big fan ofa burger with American cheese, ② but no pickles because that’s ③ too aggressive for a burger and I can’t taste anything else. At a restaurant, ④ I go with a medium cooked ribeye steak and either mashed potatoes or French fries. ⑤ I’ve been eating sushi all my life, so that’s my favorite Japanese food, but I also love tonkotsu ramen ⑥ with a lot of pork chashu but easy on the moyashi bean sprouts.For sushi, always get Maguro Bluefin tuna and salmon.
