It was another extremely hot day in Tokyo so I jumped on the Ginza subway line and header upto Asakusa for a quick look at Senso-ji.
It was very busy on a Saturday morning so I didn’t want to stick around for too long.
As I walked down a side street I noticed a coffee shop so headed in for a drink.

I was now back in Tokyo for the final couple of days of my trip.
I’d hopped off the shinkansen at Ueno and made the quick walk to my hotel in the extreme heat.
After a quick freshen up I pulled up a map and looked for somewhere to eat.
I spotted a curry restaurant close by with decent reviews so decided to give it a try.

Generally I’ve been choosing to stay at hotels close by the train stations unless there’s a compelling reason not to.
Luckily there’s no shortage of hotels close by to Sendai station.

It’s amazing what you find in train stations in Japan. You’ll find shops, restaurants, bars, hotels… you name it you’ll probably find it at one of the large railway stations.
And so it was that I was wandering through Sendai station when I happened across Kirin City+.
