Travwlogue Japan Day 2-Shibuya

(Pics to be added later)
Spent much of yesterday on the east side of the loop.  Today I will be on thew
west side beginning woth Shibuya. This station is.known for Hachiko and the scramble.  Others alao know it for Shibuya 109.  Ive come to have an early sushi lunch.  Have to remember theres a Tetsu here since the one closer to me is temporarily closed.  This is part of a chain of cheap sushi restaurants.  Their tagline is: the conveyor belt sushi place without the conveyor belt.  They have a 3 level shuttle that brings your order to you.  Multilingual touchscreens take your order 3 items at a time.  I begin with crab cream croquette, miso crab soup and seafood avocado salad.   Didnt detect much crab in the croquette nor avocado in the salad.  Had the cheeseburger nigiri which consisted of a meat patty with a dolop of so called cheese sauce.  They have a few items especially the pork ones.  Grilled poek and boiled pork woth black pepper come to mind.  i finished it off with the dessert platter with ice coffee.  Chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream topped with chocolate and strawberry sauce accompanied by a pear in jelly.  They also have udon ad ramen too.  it was ok and i ate alot.  Even with cheap sushi it can still add up.  I walked around for a bit before going to Shinjuku.  Oddly enough found a small grocerand the fist Taco Bell Ive seen.
