Dining  in Japan is a unique experience. most restaurants here would hand the bill over to your table while you’re having your meal. although this would probably be regarded as offensive to western dining rules, but in Japan it is considered normal. I myself would sometimes forget about it and ask the bill from the waiter, only to feel embarrassed when the waiter would gesture that the bill was already on the table. ^^; however if one might want to avoid this embarrassing situation, there’s always a McDonald’s somewhere around the area. Although the Mcdonalds I went to has a strange looking vending machine that dispenses Mc Cards. probably some sort of prepaid coupons. Then again this might come in handy if one gets mugged, the muggers would probably just get your cash and wouldn’t even trouble themselves with the mc cards. ^^

Demashitaa! Powerpuff Girls Z! I had a previous post on them a while back.

Another unique setup I found was in a curry shop in Akihabara. Instead of having a cashier or even a cash register, you just choose which particular food tickles your fancy on a vending machine, the machine then dispenses a stub that you would later give to a waiter to let him know what you wanted.

Katsu Curry yum!

speaking of vending machines, I found it strange how drinks vending machines could be found just about anywhere tokyo. I even saw one in the middle of nowhere during my visit to the Noto Ishikawa. if it were in the Philippines those machines would have already long been stolen.
