TOKYO II: Day IV Meguro Parasitic Museum + Harajuku Gyoza Lou

July 2014


There's a parasitical museum at Meguro. Exiting from Meguro station, I lost my way to the museum. The weather was so hot, I went to a convenience store to buy green tea ice cream.

It was my first time trying out this ice cream (231 yen), and being a green tea fan, this ice cream is absolutely delicious with the sweetness that satisfy every single taste buds of mine. 


Hitching a ride from a Japanese acquaintance, we arrived to this small Parasitical Museum. It is a 2 floor museum with well displayed specimen of various type of parasites. All the descriptions are in Japanese. Even though I do not understand what the words meant, just looking at the specimens worth the visit. (Plus, it's free entry)

15 minutes' walk from the West Exit (Nishi-Guchi/西口) of Meguro Station

 We headed over to Harajuku Gyoza Lou at 6-2-4 Jingumae, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo. Choice of either pan-fried dumpling or steamed dumplings.

We ordered both pan fried and steamed gyoza and here's my set of pan fried dumplings for 290 yen. Same price for steamed dumplings. 

I'm not a smoker but I saw packets of Japanese cigarettes in the car.
