I found chrysanthemum flowers on sale, so I bought some.
Of course, I bought them to eat. (^-^)

As soon as the water comes to a boil, put them in a colander.

It is also delicious with a little ponzu or salad sauce.

I passed by the Harumi Bridge on my bicycle.
The view of Toyosu from the top of the Harumi Bridge in the evening was very beautiful.

The many skyscrapers of offices, condominiums, and commercial facilities lit up the sea of Toyosu.

This is a monument of a dragon located near Exit 2 of Tatsumi Station on the Yurakucho Subway Line.
The dragon in "Tatsu" means dragon.
"Mi" means snake.
These are the animals that appear in the Chinese zodiac.
In Japan, the 12 animals in the Chinese zodiac are sometimes arranged like a clock to show the direction.
Tatsumi is located in the direction of Tatsumi as seen from Edo Castle, hence the name Tatsumi.

Ramen Yoshii - Salt ramen

This is a salt ramen at Ramen Restaurant Yoshii near Kachidoki Station.
The soup and noodles were delicious, but the grilled green onions were the best part.

By salty taste, I don't mean just salt, but salt added to the basic taste of chicken, meat, or fish.
It does not mean soy sauce flavor or miso flavor. It can also mean.

Ordering was easy to understand, as the ticketing system was based on a vending machine with pictures.

After the closing of the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Tokyo, I visited the athletes' village.
I couldn't get into the back of the village, as it was under construction for cleanup.
I couldn't go into the back of the village.

I will report again when I can enter the town.
