Interview at "Wild Blue Angel" in Daikanyama, Tokyo

(Mr Idee is taking the video, and Kaoru is interviewing with the owner of the shop)

Yesterday, on 18th of February, we had an interview with the owner of the shop called "Wild Blue Angel". The shop is full of '70s clothes and goods because the owner was learning fashion when the '70s fashion was popular. Also, the owner is collecting several goods that he really like and thinks it great.

The shop was once an old house. But he renovated or remake the old house. The shop has good atmosphere. There're several kinds of goods from belt to jacket.

You can see the video from below! See and enjoy!

Wasabi has Antiaging effects

(from Flickr by stu_spivack)

Have you ever tried Wasabi(わさび: spice often used when eating for Sushi)? Not hot spice, but spicy. Not similar to other spice like chili. It's really Japanese-taste spice.


Professor Miwa from Chubu University(in Aichi prefecture) found that the component of Wasabi has effects of antiaging and preventing sick like cancer or diabetes. This result of research will be published on PLoS ONE, source says. This research found that Wasabi reduce oxidative stress which is induced by such as smoking.


Let's try Wasabi and be healthy!! Go to Sushi bar now LOL!! But be careful using too much is dangerous..


Interesting thing is that we have Wasabi ice cream in Japan. I've never had it but it is popular! So if you have chance to come to Japan and go to Matsumoto, Nagano prefecture, you should try it! (see the map!)
