Can't you believe it?   Unbelievable?!

When I was walking along a narrow road near the police box at 6-chome to try tea at Tsukiji, suddenly found a mysterious apartment? !

As walking through narrow street somewhere around Tsukiji 6-chome, all the sudden, very strange looking appartment appeared!

I've seen it somewhere ... maybe Tsukiji Honganji's pacli?

I thought that the semi-cylindrical roof of Tsukiji Honganji was just coming out from behind the apartment.

I was surprised, so just one piece.

Although it looked very familiar, pretty much of partial mock-up of Tsukiji Hongwanji Temple. The mystery was easily solved.  The appartment itself was built on the other side of the temple and the arch type roof of the temple just happened to show up. Took a snap shot since it was quite an encounter.

 

 

And I headed to my destination, Tsukiji Chabo, but it closed in the 45th year of business! Why? I hope it's a lie.

Headed to "Tsukiji Sabo", a local cafe, but eventually, had to find and admit a sad news on the door. The cafe closed down!  This cafe has been serving locals since 1972 and god help us why now?

The coffee jelly here was exquisite. The price was also excellent at 200 yen, and on Saturday it was a price of 100 yen, half price! !

One of the best choices of this cafe was "coffee jelly with vanila ice cream on top" which only costed JPY200 and its high quality valued for money. On Saturdays, this masterpiece used to be discounted 50% and was served for JPY100.  Assume that this tragedy shocked all the local sweet tooth.

 

 

I was a little disappointed to lose the fine enjoyment of the weekend, but I revisited and went out to the main street, worshiped Tsukiji Honganji in front and headed to the next destination. But I still want you to be a dream.

Who cannot be upset when one has lost one's weekend pleasure. Just unbelievable. Perhaps nothing sweet can last forever, poor me and my coffee jelly・・・ 

Walked to front side of Tsukiji Hogwanji Temple and took a good look to cheer oneself up and headed to the next destination.
