Adventure 5: Namja Town and Piss Alley

We've been spending a lot of time wandering around in the heat, so we thought we'd take a break and head to sunshine city. Sunshine city is a mall COMPLEX with 4 or 5 multi storey buildings and is home to Namja Town.

Namja Town is a food theme park where you can eat every type of icecream know to man (chicken wing flavour anyone? Shark fin? Potato and butter? Charcol?) We proclaimed deep sea water the best, ate a big pile of dumplings in the gyoza stadium and then headed back out into the heat.

The goal of the evening was to find a place full of food stalls called Memory Lane - known to locals as piss alley. We found it after only 40 mins or so of wandering aimlessly in the heat which was a new record for us, so we celebrated at a tiny rooftop bar of questionable construction. We then found a yakatori place that looked good and ate freshly cooked bbq and big glasses of beer with randoms that soon became our friends giving us fans and buying us plates of food.


Off to Taito Ryokan tonight - will post a couple of photos later camera already packed in bag
