Noodle-cakes!
I felt like the person who made these cakes seriously missunderstood something when I first saw them in Sunshine City, Ikebukuro. However, a Japanese friend of mine was surprised to see me laughing at the picture and told me that these were actually quite common in Japan. She also told me the name but of course I forgot it right away…
I took this picture at the parfait-place in Ikebukuro, so please don’t pay too much attention to the reflections of the window.
The large building is a Karaoke-kan, the epitome of Japanese entertainment culture. Hah~… itchy feet.

I don’t know whether any of you are actually interested in learning Japanese, but since it’s what I’d call my main occupation in life, I thought I might as well share a bit of it every now and then :)
