Koffee MameyaGordons Travel Tips2024-10-15 | Whenever I visit Tokyo, I make a pilgrimage to Koffee Mameya in Ometesando (near Shibuya and Harajuku). It's a tiny store that specialises in selling curated bags of the best coffee beans from around the World, but they'll also make you a brew to enjoy in the shop. It's tiny with no seating and only room for about four or five people standing at the counter, so it's not a cafe you hang around in; plus you may be queuing outside for your turn. But if you're really into speciality coffee, the experience is amazing, discussing the kind of flavours you enjoy with the expert baristas (who speak excellent English). Some of the prices can get pretty high, but there's always something decent on the menu for around a fiver. I love it! See maps.app.goo.gl/CNfR3gejKWgwSfnM8Hello Kitty SHINKANSEN!

Timetable and more info at jr-hellokittyshinkansen.jp/enLucky Cat Temple VISIT Gotokuji in TokyoGordons Travel Tips2024-06-10 | Do you like Lucky Cat statues? Would you like to see thousands of them in the beautiful surroundings of a Buddhist Temple? Then Gotokuji Temple is for you, on the outskirts of Tokyo, about half an hour train journey from the centre. Go to Miyanosaka station on the Tokyu Setagaya line, or Gotokuji station on the Odakyu line. Neither line is operated by JR, so sadly can’t be used with any of the JR passes, but it is at least not an expensive ticket, about Y200 each way. Easy data for travel?

Times Square? The Highline? A live TV show recording? All solid options for every tourist, but arguably the best of all is The Staten Island Ferry, a commuter service which doesn't charge a dime, yet gives you a nice distant view of The Statue of Liberty as well as a great perspective on the skyscrapers of downtown Manhattan.
