The seventh day. Today I went to Oxford street to buy a mobile phone and a bag to carry to school. Started from Green Park, we went through Mayfair, and had a lunch at a noodle bar called “itsu“. The meal there was rather shocking for me though… Although sushi looked like proper sushi…
…Is this…Udon??? This is not a problem of “western” or “eastern” (In Japan, soup of udon tastes different in west and east). It’s almost something completely different. Actually you can meet udon noodles and miso-soup under this lots of vegetables. Although I was told to use teriyaki sauce…sorry. I can’t. As the sauce was served in a small plastic bottle, I just take it away with me. But its taste was quite good! Today’s title is the name of miso soup in that restaurant.
After that, I went to Phones 4 u to buy a mobile. (It was the first time for me to have it in England.) It seems pay as you go has a certain share in the U.K…. (Not so common in Japan) Although I wanted to choose monthly as the cost would be cheaper, I had no choice as I don’t have a bank account yet. By the way, it’s interesting that we can buy only SIM cards.
Well…I think handsets sold in the U.K. don’t look cute. They are not smart either…The interface is not so good either… If I try to buy a good one, it costs a lot too… Anyway, I chose a handset and got it set up.
And we went shopping. I think there’s no such a big price difference in clothes…maybe. I love shopping in London.
