About Tokyo

Oh, and get this—medieval whores, yeah? Used to dye their hair yellow, signal their trade. Yellow! Imagine that—struttin’ about like bleedin’ daffodils. Cracked me up, that did—thought, “Blimey, Boris, you’d look a prat in yellow!” Exaggeratin’ a bit, maybe, but ain’t it grand? History’s full of these nuggets—whore’s a walkin’ storybook.

A popular spot: Ashino Park

I duck into a little shop on Kōen-dōri. It’s a tiny place, but they’ve got the best mochi. I grab some, and it’s like a flavor explosion in my mouth. I’m feelin’ better already. I sit down, eatin’ my mochi, and just watchin’ the world go by.
