I visited Sunamachi Ginza's shopping street located at Kitasuna, Koto-ku, Tokyo Prefecture. This shopping street won 3rd place of the most wanted to visit shopping street from Japan Economic Newspaper on February 5th, 2005. Recently, it is also selected for shooting TV Tokyo drama [The Lonely Gourmet] where you could actually see the main character was eating food inside of the shop.
