Halal food and Prayer Room / Musolla / Surau in Tokyo, Seoul and Bangkok

I am too lazy to make a separate posts lol...

Tokyo :
Bagi saya dibandingkan dengan negara2 bukan Islam yang lain, Jepun adalah yang terbaik dalam meyediakan keperluan Muslim seperti surau dan makanan halal. Kalau tgk halal map merata2 prayer room dekat Tokyo. Kebanyakkan prayer room disediakan di kedai2 tax free seperti Laox ( yang juga menyediakan souvenir halal). Yang penting juga kebanyakkan Toilet di mall jepun  dilengkapi dengan bidet. Tu paling best tu lol...

Masjid utama ialah Masjid Tokyo Camii ( stesen terdekat Yoyogi Uehara ) . Sampai di airport jangan lupa ambil brochur Tokyo Map for Muslim , dekat Osaka dan Sapporo pun ada map ni.
Dekat Haneda ada 2 prayer room level departure ( cumanya takde logo laki perempuan) so confuse yang belah mana sikitla lol. Tempat wudhu disediakan cuma mmg tak bole stay lebih dr 15 min .akan ada officer yang suruh keluar.(dia taknak kita tidur di situ)

Shinjuku:
Shinjuku Laox:

 Wudhu boleh ambil di tandas bersebelahan.
Alternatif lain di Shinjuku : Takashimaya Times Square ( kedua2 bangunan ni cuma 7-8 minit dr stesen Shinjuku)

Bole makan di Shinjuku Ramen Ouka (stesen terdekat -ShinjukuGyoenMae) 2 stesen dr stesen Shinjuku. Kalau google taip je halal ramen shinjuku , mesti jumpa page dia ( tulis dalam bahasa jepun)
untuk rujukan ni website dia : http://www.m-ouka.jp/

Suka makanan restoren ni sebab ramen dia set dengan nasi ,ayam ,telur + ada pemanis mulut sekali. Harga 1050 yen (small)tu berbaloilah sebab kenyang. Kena bayar dulu dekat vending mesin dan ambil kupon.

lepas makan ramen tuang kuah ramen dlm nasi

Cara nak pergi Ouka:
Stesen ShinjukuGyoenMae Exit 2. Pusing kiri sampai nampak Bank Mitsubishi Tokyo UFJ. Pusing Kiri jalan sikit nampak dah restoran tu dekat corner (sebelah kanan anda)

Bank Mitsubishi UFJ

Asakusa juga pusat utama makanan halal . Kebanyakkan restoren menyediakan ruang solat sekali. Yang paling senang di Jepun ni boleh pakai Google maps je untuk direction. ( dibandingkan dengan Korea google maps telah di"disablekan" hanya map bahasa korea je yang boleh pakai.

Restoran Ippin , Asakusa
Haritu Sabtu baru nak rasa Kari Jepun dia tutup plak.

Nasib baik Naritaya beberapa minit je dr sini.  Terus tukar makan ramen.

Naritaya ada kat centre ni

Halal Ramen

  Ruang sembahyang disediakan juga tp sempit sgt untuk seorang je.

Skytree Asakusa

siap taruk logo halal untuk aiskrim (seberang jalan stesen asakusa arah ke temple dan Naritaya)

Seoul :
Masjid Utama di Itaewon, sekeliling masjid tu penuh restoran halal.

Dibandingkan dengan Tokyo surau yang ada di Seoul cuma di Korea Tourism HQ. Boleh juga jalan2 tengok Cheonggyeocheon stream.
Stesen terdekat : Jonggak  exit 5 ( bangunan KTO bersebelahan dengan citibank so nak withdraw duit pun ok) Rasanya kalau Seoul payah gak nak jumpa global atm kena carik citibank/standard chartered.

Laki dan perempuan diasingkan . Tempat wudhu disediakan. Tiada telekung waktu saya pergi (mungkin disediakan tp kena minta untuk pinjam dr staff) sebab ada terbaca memo mesti pulangkan barang yang dipinjam dekat surau tu.

Boa Guesthouse  , Hongdae
Selain Itaewon boleh jugak dapat makanan halal di Hongdae ( stesen Hongik University Exit 4)
Hari tu dah pernah stay sini tp masa tu dia kena reserve tapi sekarang ni boleh je walk in tak perlu reservation.
Guide bergambar untuk ke Boa Guesthouse boatravelhouse.com
Tutup: Hari Khamis
Waktu Operasi : 12pm- 9pm

Hari tu beli topokki dan kimbap tuna sahaja. Disebabkan seorang je chef, mungkin kena tunggu lama sikit kalau ramai orang.

Bangkok Impact Arena dan Don Muang
Surau ada disediakan di Airport Don Muang ( level 1) . Wudhuk perlu diambil di tandas  di level yang sama ( tempat membasuh kaki disediakan).
Impact Arena juga ada surau (masuk ikut entrance opposite Novotel) Memory lost tak sure kenapa tak ambil gambar sign langsung lol
Makanan halal yang ada di Impact Arena ialah  Kebab sahaja. Makanya kalau ada event di Muang Thani / Thunder Dome makan kebabjelah.

JYP Nation Concert Mix and Match In Japan

JYP Nation concert is a must for me....I cant go to Seoul but I want to go to any other stop. I don't buy any ticket to anywhere until I know when is the next JYP nation concert location lol...Once JYPe announce the date, the 3 days concert at Tokyo is also fall on 4th Sept = 2pm anniversary + Mark's birthday !
Double celebration !
After that Air Asia Big Final call happened...i can redeem return ticket for Rm600 ( what an  opportunity that cannot to be missed )

After Hokkaido i think I can travel light anywhere and I don't need to check in luggage at all.
With Aunee's reference (a friend from previous Tokyo trip) I manage to book a stay at Rumah Pelajar Malaysia. (1500Yen per night)

Yoyogi Stadium nearest station is Harajuku which is only 25 minutes from RPJ.Secured my JYPN ticket from Moge . I also help out to buy the  JYPN md..it is still fun as if you are the one who buying it.... hahaha

The struggle when you need to q for the goods

I almost get a heat shock lol but this just make me smile ( im just helpin to buy this md lol)

One thing in Japan they always have the random cards and it is very addictive. The suspense and thrill of  opening the envelope  cover LOL. Plus there are 20 chances of meet and greet for 2pm and Got7.

Johnny appa

B'day Boy Mark

Every Hottest and Igot7 will display their cards so we can exchange with each other.

Got7 Jinyoung

Hi Khunnie

Jaebum ahhh ( a fellow Sg IGOT7 ask me to buy this card for her )

At the venue

 

J-Igot7 special booth

I bought goods for day1 ( q almost 1 hour), Day2 i went sight seeing and come here at 4pm to avoid the Q but most of goods already sold out. Day 3. ( I q almost 2 hours+ ) I dont know that I am such a strong will person LOL. 

preparation for D-day ( agabong pinjam dr kakton)

I understand it is summer but I don't expect it will be that hot...it is hotter than Malaysia K...n no wind at all. I know that JYPe Japan is the best marketer but they fail to seize another Yen opportunity ...if they sell the mineral water for people who q'ing I definitely buy one ( especially if the bottle is with any of group face lol ) ....ok gimme free ticket for this idea hahaha. In contrast for winter they can sell the coffee/hotchoc.

Day6 Live Concert Dream in Bangkok 2016 n a bit of got7

I went to Day6 concert last August. yup this is an overdue post...lol. There was a big member Air Asia sales and I managed to buy a return ticket from Bangkok to Kuala Lumpur worth rm90 only + points. Only after that ,I buy the Day6 concert ticket and AA ticket KUL to Bangkok.(less than rm140)

I want to buy the cheapest seated ticket but during the launch the ticket is sold out. I kind of freak out as  I have a return flight ticket. "I need a ticket, any ticket lol" so I click the middle price ticket of ...(yes my logic is not so logic). All standing will get a hitouch but I dont need a hi-touch, I just want a photo op if any. My ticket only won the signed poster from random draw..( ok I am still lucky compare to the other who doesn't win anything at all)

Fan can still participate to get the photo op by buying the Day6 Thai version album .It is also by  a lucky draw. I only buy 1 cd. ( coz i need to try 1 at least) Omg, I won. I guess I am only lucky with Day6 eg I get into their fansign, I buy album with "Live" ticket  in it (actually Ani the one who get it but i am the one who buy it lol) , got the signed poster and finally a photo op. For the photo ,I only manage to say "Hi"..thats it hahaha.

Pocket calendar given by day6 thai fanbase  + candies and my daydream Thai version

As usual no photo and recording inside venue and I dont bring my galaxy camera at all. I just dont want to get into any trouble.

Highlights :
1. The special stage among members. That was DOPE!
2. The impromptu song-omg they are so talented, please give them a listen y'all.
3. The special fan project. Young K approved this.

this Dowoon bday project is too funny

It is so fun and entertaining that I wish Day6 can perform in Malaysia too.

Post Day6 .
After concert we hunt for Got7 est cola.

The special Hamburger magazine

oh by the way on the same day Got7 is holding their final concert in Seoul. ( cant believe I dont go to any of their FLY tour) but I cant miss Day6 too... ( what a JYPN trash).  I also manage to trade a BamBam wappen to Mark wappen with Thai agase here.

The propose JYPN is also at the same venue...i dont buy any flight ticket as I already went to Japan stop.
P/s JYPN bangkok this November is cancel as Thailand is still mourning on the late King. Rest In Peace.

Sleep Box Don Muang

Sleep box is a new budget hotel located at Don Muang Terminal 2. The price is quite cheap and all room comes with private bathroom.
If you have an early flight you can choose to stay here.

We arrived Don Muang via Uber at 1am. 3 hours is 1000 Baht so we add pm 1 hour for another 200 baht. The 1000 baht you paid is also inclusive breakfast coupon value of 200 baht . The cafe is just beside the main reception. Our flight to KL is at 7am.

The staff saw that there are 3 of us and charge us extra person for 300 baht (our friend could hide first lol ok but let just be a good honest person lol). The staff also arrange extra towel and extra mineral water for us. The double bed can fit us all 3.

The lamp is in romantic mode lol plus I am already sleepy that time so there is no good photo of the room. The shower comes with hot water but it is not that hot but still acceptable ( it is not icy cold) . Oh the air cond might be too cold and it is a central control ac so u cant adjust the  temp.

 Toilet : Credit bangkok.coconuts

we check out around 5am and grab our coffee using the voucher provided. Terminal 2 (domestic) look nicer and new.

Total 1500 baht : Divide/ 3: 500 baht per person around rm60.

Sleeping in airport is normal to me...like i sleep at Changi floor  just to save money ( it have nice carpet) lol  However instead of chair camping and floor bed this is still affordable and i can have  enough sleep, free shower facility and breakfast at the same time. I dont mind staying here again. Unfortunately you cant book online only  available for walkin customer.
