Rex Lounge

I got here in the early morning when they just opened. I read a lot of bad things, but Icannot complain. I probably indulged in more food and drinks than the entrance is worth. The chairs are quite dirty, but generally the sofa's, chairs and tables are fine to spend some time before your flight. I got myself some breakfast, toasties, vegetarian wraps, muffins, cookies, chocolates, coffee and tea. There are noodles and many soft drinks too. There are toilets yoo, which were clean in the morning. I guess it's normal you cannot take foods and drinks from the lounge. Nothing to complain about!
Majors Bay Sushi

After having sushi at a all you can eat place with mediocre quality, this is simply delicious. Having the Sushi deluxe 24pcs and the King Salmon Mania Roll was the best decision ever. The sushi deluxe set even includes lean tuna and Uni, the sea urchin! The amount of rice versus fish is good too. When we got in, we directly got some miso soup on the house, and after ordering drinks we got free sake too (with refill!). We took the warm sake, since it was a bit chilly inside because the door was open. After this delicious feast we were exited to order the large seafood basket too. On the bottom of this basket you'll find chips, topped with tempura battered fish fingers, calamari, crab and prawn. A good deal, but oh so much food! It was actually too much but delicious. I would like to come back again!

The best combination of you cannot decide; Warabimochi and with ice cream. Delicious combination. The ice cream is a bit sweet and the Warabimochi is a bit chewy but has a good texture. For slightly more than ¥600 it's not cheap, but the quality is good. It's nice to see how they cut and prepare the product behind the counter
Very interesting museum! I never thought the museum would offer so much information from the Toyota history back in the days, and never would know what kind of developments they would have done in the past. Toyota is still a car brand for the majority of the people, but is more than that! Not only the very well maintained equipment, but also the interactive way of presenting the machinery to the people is very well done. Working machines which are rotating, moving and making noises. This is what people like to see and keep them awake. But some push buttons at some machines and see what's happening. I worked in the automotive industry so I knew how most of the equipment, but regardless it was very interesting to see. At the end of the tour you can enjoy some lunch and coffee in the in-house cafe or bring your memories home in the shape of souvenirs. You can spend 2 to 3 hours in here.

I can only say something about the really creamy and tasty sky scraper green Matcha ice cream, which is big and green! They have vanilla flavour as well, but that's boring. I'm in Japan so Matcha it is. A friendly lady behind the counter and this is a place to go back.
