Great product, cool store…

imageWe came across this store in Shibuya, they sell Freitag products, bags made from recycled truck tarpaulin and seatbelts.

The bags are pretty neat as they are unique and it is kind of cool to know your bag has already travelled more miles in a previous incarnation than you will ever take it on!

The store is what really interested me, the layout and display is understated but really works, it is like a tunnel warehouse, you can enter the shop from either end.

For when you really don’t fancy talking to anyone

imageYou can enjoy your own company at this ramen bar in Shibuya.

You select what you want to eat from a machine, you pay the machine, the food gets given to you through a hatch into your own booth. The serving hatch is then closed. If you want to eat more you write it on an ordering pad and push a service button.

No need to talk… Perfect for the days when you are feeling a little unsociable!

Oh the ramen was excellent! 8/10. Ichiran Shibuya branch. By the way, I went with my wife, our booths were next to each other and we were able to share our solitude!
