Chapter 53 052. Tsukiji Honganji Temple

Tsukiji is the stomach of Tokyo. It is very close to Ginza. It is the largest food wholesale market in Tokyo. All kinds of seafood are unloaded here from the early morning, and wholesale and retail to all parts of Tokyo. Ichinose-sensei has been helping me find connections so that I can enter the record industry I want to go.This time, he found a lawyer friend who asked us to meet at Tsukiji Honganji Temple. Tsukiji Honganji really opened my eyes, and I feel like I have come to India.Buddhist temples are built to look like Indian buildings, and the inside is even more magnificent.The lawyer led us into an elegant Japanese restaurant, and ordered a triple wooden box of Shokado Bento for Mr. Ichinose and me.This is a real Japanese-style bento, with colorful food cut into various flower shapes, and it feels like eating a fragrant rubber from when I was a child.You can get very good and cheap sushi in Tsukiji.Especially delicious is the tuna sashimi, the fattest and pinkest part, it has a creamy taste in your mouth, and it feels like it will melt.
