It's a crazy huge ramen noodle called "Jiro". It's very popular, so you probably have to wait. The noodle is very large. Don't try to get large size. Small is enough. I don't recommend it to ladies.

It's a large park in a middle of Tokyo. It's fun to have a can of beer in such a place. It's not illegal in Japan to drink in public places. Go dare do it. It's close to Harajuku station.
