We met a Japanese company that crafts high-quality smartphone cases out of wood.

Share The GeekStuff4U global dungeon headquarters/dollhouse happens to be located in Omori, Tokyo. What also happens to be located here is , one of Tokyo’s best fried chicken joint. Some people literally travel miles to get some food there. We just need to go downstairs… The place is run by a few old ladies who [...]

Today, March 8, is the 76th death anniversary of the famous Japanese dog, Hachiko.

Share In Japan one is defined not by his actions, but by his business card. Called “Meishi” (名刺) in Japanese, they are a fundamental part of social and professional interaction in Japan.

Share Get off the station at Sakuragicho on the Keihin Tohoku line in northeastern Yokohama, and one of the first things you notice is a mass of vertical orange masts nestled cozily in the famous landmarks that make up the cityscape of Minatomirai.  The Nippon-Maru, a 2,278-tonne 4-masted training vessel nicknamed The Pacific Swan, traveled [...]

Share One thing we love at GeekStuff4U, is Yakiniku (litterally meaning grilled meat)… And the most famous place for Yakiniku in Tokyo, is obviously Shin-Okubo (A place that Mathieu Loves… and will probably never forget ;-)). However, we also have one in Omori Station, where the food is really affordable (especially for the Lunch), and [...]

Share So you know that the GS4U team is in Tokyo, right? Well there happens to be a neighborhood called Ikegami within walking distance of our dwelling, and said neighborhood happens to host a Matsuri (Japanese Festival) from the 11th to the 13th of October in front of the Honmon-Ji Buddhist temple. We were close [...]
