For lunch, try one of the many organic vegetables or vegan cafes that have opened in these few years. Nowdays, fashion conscious natives of Tokyo are not only concerned about what they wear but very careful of what they eat. The greasy fast food hamburgers or fatty cream spaghettis are out, and many are turning to healthy oriented restaurants and cafes. There are also a few Japanese tea shops with cafes inside where a pot of green tea and lunch is served. A popular lunch includes brown rice and miso soup with more than 10 kinds of vegetables.

In the afternoon, move to Harajuku to see what is in for younger generation of Tokyo. Many young and fashionable people are walking on the streets where small clothing and accessory shops are lined. For those who wish to create an one-and-only mobile phone, Deco-den shop is a must see place. Deco-den stands for "decorated denwa (phone in Japanese)". Consult the shop staff on the design you would like to have on your phone, and let them decorate it with colorful rhinestones.
