Last night I had to decide my current home Akasaka is No. 1. I was
receiving a head spa treatment in a hidden place that used to be a high class
Japanese restaurant. The shop accepts only two customers at a time in separate
spacious rooms to keep a tranquil environment. A new esthetician yesterday was marvelous.
I was truly healed and had to make a reservation for the next time upon completion of the three-hour
head, facial and body course that ended with a handmade organic small cake and
only subtly sweet ginger tea.
This is what I call sophistication.
Only five minutes’ walk from my place, this is just one example
that contributes to my overall satisfaction with Akasaka. Located in the very
heart of central Tokyo, part of Akasaka I live in remain quiet and leafy on both
weekdays and weekends.
Almost
five years ago, I just walked in a local real estate agent,
who told me “You’re very lucky, there is a place that was just
cancelled." She excitedly added "I'm totally sure you’ll
love it, come with me!”
