Last year in June of 2018, I was looking for a master baking course that offered a combination of beautiful, great tasting pastries (that I would want to bake again) in a fun city and delightful culture. I happened to stumble upon Faith Beau Tokyo via Instagram, and I was hooked at first sight. In addition to the positive comments that everyone has shared already, I must also highlight about Sawako's apparent baking techniques and calm, sweet demeanor. Her pastries have the perfect balance of aesthetics, textures and flavors--stimulating your taste buds and desire for more without feeling guilty! ;) The master course was intense with 18 different recipes, but totally worth it. Sawako is extremely passionate and intentional with her training. I look forward to offering her baked goods...coming soon to Atlanta, Georgia in summer 2020.

mipig cafe

mipig cafe is the very first cafe in Japan where you can meet micro pigs. Here at “Micro pig's house,” all micro pigs from baby ones to adult ones friendly live together, and you are a friend of them. You may want to take a nap, read books, eat some snacks etc. with your friends! Please make yourself at home and have a wonderful time! We opened the store as we wanted you to know about their talent as a pet that they originally have. At mipig cafe, we will provide a warm and cozy time to as many guests as we can so that they can feel the charm of micro pigs. There is also a floor for who want to have them as a family member, while meeting adult micro pigs. We very much look forward to your visit as their ‘friend’ and ‘family!’

Very interesting and cafe. Many little piggies running around and at time they will rest on our laps. The stuff are very friendly and there are English speaking staff around to explain to us. The cafe are very well kept, very clean and no smell at all. Worth visiting as it is an unique experience.

Take your time here - the more historic black and white exhibition is arranged with thought-provoking questions...time, space, who we are, and how we communicate across time and space. Some of the exhibited prints are very well known, some less so; I found it took me nearly an hour just to get through this portion of the exhibition. At the time we were there, there was also on exhibit highlighting the work of contemporary Asian women artists - I found this exhibit completely different, and equally thought provoking. My husband, not so much. For perspective, my husband is a photographer / graphic designer, I work in health care and, for the record, take terrible photographs. One thing that is nice is that one can purchase entry into any one of the exhibit floors, in any combination of two, or for all three. We did all three; if you are short on time, I'd recommend the permanent exhibition first (on floor 3), the temporary / special exhibit second (floor 2). There was also a short exhibit on The Magic Lantern - and development of slide projectors / cinematography - which, although I learned something, was the least impressive of the three floors (this one was in the basement floor) After visiting all the floors, we spent 30 minutes in the shop looking at books.

Meguro Parasitological Museum

The Meguro Parasitological Museum is a private research facility that was established in 1953 with the private funds of a medical doctor, Satoru Kamegai. The museum exhibits about 300 parasite specimens and related material. On the first floor we present the "Diversity of Parasites" displaying various types of parasitic specimens with accompanying educational movies. The second floor exhibits are "Human and Zoonotic Parasites" showing parasite lifecycles and the symptoms they cause during human infection. In addition to research, the museum also performs other activities such as education and provides special publications. The museum has been admission free since it was established. However, running the museum has become more costly, and donations from individuals and corporations provide us with an invaluable financial resource. Therefore, your contribution is essential and will be very much appreciated.

Don't skip this Free museum of weird parasites in glass tubes on display. By the stairs going to 2nd floor make sure you look at the picture book. Only some things are labeled in English but it's still an hourlong tour. The famous 8 meter tape worm is upstairs along with the chigger mite in wax. From the JR Yamanote line to Meguro, take the west exit and walk 1 km . It's up hill from Otori -jinja mae bus stop on the ground floor of apartment building. Lots of locals were headed for it also so you can always ask. T shirts and key chains are for sale upstairs.
