The friendliness and helpfulness of the people. If you ask someone for directions they look on their phones and get other people to join in the search.
Melon pan - a delicious bread we've taken to eating for breakfast at a little café nearby. No tourists there. You take off your shoes and sit at a low table - you do have to remember to ask for hot - not iced - coffee though.
The huge Don Quijote megastore on five floors, open 24/7, selling everything from basic and exotic foods and toiletries, through stationery, camping equipment, kitchenware, electronics and haberdashery to plastic gorilla masks, bunny ears, strange pants for men with bananas attached and other Japanese fun items of dubious nature. Generally cheap, lots of discounts and bargains. A cross between a pound shop and TK Max.
And The Hub Jazz Bar... although that's more specifically a Tokyo thing.
Sounds like my sort of shop - the one with the gorilla masks and strange pants! Melon pan sounds intriguing too - will have to look up the recipe.
