Tokyo has the image of being the world’s most expensive city, but in this episode, everything is under 500 yen!
STREET FOOD in Japan is everywhere especially in Tokyo and a bargain option for those who want to try everything.

About Shibamata:
Most shop close by 16:30 ~ 17:00
I highly recommend arriving before 15:30.
