Tips
cool and free

Best tip norm ever! In Japan there's no need to tip!

Don't try to give tips in japanese hotels, bars, taxis, etc. Tips are not accepted in Japan and they will reject them with some kind of disapointment.

Eating & Drinking

The best pub in Shibuya... well, maybe in Tokyo. It's difficult to find in the city a place where you can listen to good music (punk, new-wave, indie-rock...) without paying any kind of entrance ticket. The prices are not really cheap, fair for Tokyo, but the staff is great.

Shimokitazawa - 下北沢
cool and cheap

Perhaps this neighborhood is not as popular as Harajuku (mainly for the foreigners), but it's definitely as trendy and much more authentic. You won't find only a lot of good stores, but also good live-houses, cafes and restaurants.

There is even some kind of rivalry between the young Japanese who like Harajuku and those who prefer Shimokitazawa.

Ochanomizu - 御茶ノ水
cool and cheap

If you are a musician, this neighborhood is gonna become your paradise in Tokyo. Tons of cheap and amazing music stores.

Well, if you are not a musician, you can unless visit the Meiji University, enjoy the view from the bridge over the Kanda river or take a 10 minutes walk down to Akihabara (Electric Town).

Be careful: NO SMOKING AREA! Yeah, I mean in the streets.

Prada Flagship Store
cool but expensive

Tokyo is the city of the flaship stores, and Prada, in Aoyama, is with no doubt the most spectacular from the outside and from the inside.

Visit this building! Don't need to buy. Two minutes' walk from Omotesando subway station, in Minami-Aoyama.
