Go to a ticket-machine place with a queue. Any of them.

3

Yakitori

Under the train tracks in Yurakucho, with a cold beer.

5

Taiyaki

Fish-shaped, filled with red bean. Eat it walking.

Technically more of an Osaka thing, still worth it.

Cabbage refills are free. Use that information.

4

Tsukiji Outer Market

The outer market is still there and still great for breakfast.

Konbini egg sandwich

7-Eleven or Lawson. It shouldn't be this good. It is.
