southern food

First the owners and staff were so kind. A true taste of southern hospitality and American warmness. Highly recommend! I ate the country fried steak, and it was the greatest thing I’ve ever eaten. And if you are into drinks the bartender will hook you up with his own creations. I recommend “Charlie Murphy’s Couch” so good! We then had their red velvet cake and it was the perfect balance of everything you could have wanted in a cake. Every red velvet I’ve ever eaten are typically dry, but not this one, so moist and such a delight. #japantrip #deliciousfood #tokyo

🇯🇵 Lost in Tokyo: My Japan Travel Experience A first-timer’s story of neon streets, quiet temples, and unforgettable ramen Visiting Tokyo had always been on my bucket list — and when I finally landed, I realized nothing could truly prepare me for this city. Tokyo isn’t just a place. It’s an experience — futuristic, chaotic, serene, and beautiful, all at once. And I got to live it, one train stop at a time. ⸻ 🛬 First Impressions: Fast, Clean, and Polite The moment I arrived, Japan’s legendary efficiency was on full display. Immigration was smooth, and within minutes I was on the Narita Express, zooming into the city. I couldn’t stop looking out the window — the blend of nature and concrete, sakura trees peeking between buildings, vending machines everywhere. What struck me first? How quiet the city felt — even with millions of people. No honking, no shouting, just organized calm. Everyone followed the rules. It felt almost… peaceful. ⸻ 🏙️ Exploring the City: From Shibuya to Asakusa My base was in Shinjuku — loud, bright, always alive. I wandered around Kabukicho, got mildly lost, and stumbled into a tiny ramen shop run by an old man who didn’t speak English. Still, that bowl of spicy miso ramen? Unreal. One of the best meals of my life. I crossed the iconic Shibuya Crossing, visited Takeshita Street in Harajuku, and browsed the endless floors of Don Quijote. Then came the shift — from chaos to calm — as I walked through Asakusa. The Senso-ji Temple felt like stepping into another world. Lanterns, incense, people bowing in silence — it made me pause. Tokyo knows how to balance extremes. 🍜 The Food: Every Meal Was a Discovery Though I was in Japan as a Muslim I couldn’t eat everything there halal food is now available mostly in cities. Specially u have to download “halal Japan” app and scan bar codes of the foods in super market and convenient store if u are a Muslim . Even convenience store sandwiches tasted like they were made by a chef. 🧳 What I Learned • Cash is still king — not every place takes cards • Google Maps is your best friend for trains • People are respectful to the core — I didn’t hear a single loud phone call • And most importantly: don’t rush. Tokyo isn’t a checklist. It’s a city you feel, not just visit. 🌆 My Favorite Moment? It was night. I was walking alone near Tokyo Tower, the wind was cool, and the city lights reflected off wet streets. There were no crowds, no noise — just me and the skyline. That’s when I realized: Tokyo had quietly stolen my heart. ✈️ Final Thoughts Tokyo is strange and wonderful, fast and slow, loud and silent. It’s everything at once, yet nothing like anywhere else. If you ever get the chance, don’t just go — let it overwhelm you. Let it teach you stillness in motion. I know I’ll be back. #worldtravel #Trip #historicallandmarks #localguides #tokyo #japan #sakura #japantrip #japannature
