Hakabundo Making New Ground

Ever since Shirokiya's closed its doors on so many years ago at its' "Uptown" Phase, Pearlridge Shopping Center has been severely lacking in any stores selling Japanese goods, so it was great to see during my last visit, that a Hakabundo will be opening up there!
With Goma Tei Ramen Restaurant downstairs and Genki Sushi across the way, it looks like this end of Pearlridge will be a real "Nihongo" avenue!
Once upon a time, there was but one Hakabundo (located in the Chinese Cultural Plaza) and it's pretty exciting to know that there will be at least THREE outlets in the coming months! (Well, three until the one in Ward Warehouse closes, anyway!)

My friend Cassie says: "The thing that makes sunsets look good is the clouds". 

Dunno if that's true, but this spectacular view up at Tantalus Lookout makes a good case!

So many different Sushi choices you could choose from...But Alina knows what she wants...(the cupcake, of course, LOL)
