Two Closings

Two Closings
Of interest to me because of Yoshinoya Gyudon/Beef Bowl (see:> https://plus.google.com/u/0/+WalterImai/posts/DHXRvEnuhWx)
and to other Japan travelers because of Tsukiji Market.

The original Yoshinoya shop is closing because the Tsukiij Market is closing in November this year after more than 80 years and much controversy. Tsukiji will reopen at Toyosu waterfront in Koto Ward.

Reports seem to say that there will be a retail part of the new market, but smaller than the popular outer market at Shiodome. Will be interesting to see how the move affects visitors.
