Kaijin's salt ramen specialist is located just outside the southeast exit of Shinjuku Station. The menu centres on daily specials, offering soup stock made with five different types of fish. The lightly flavoured soup is topped with perfectly matched cod and prawn dumplings and chicken meatloaf, and also goes very well with condiments like spring onions, ginger, perilla leaves and shredded chilli. We recommend throwing in a grilled onigiri at the end for a delicious hodgepodge.

Zauo, the restaurant chain where you can catch your own dinner. At the Shinjuku branch you're greeted by a giant, boat-shaped seating area, and surrounding that is a moat teeming with all kinds of fish (and one mean-looking shark – mind your fingers!). Once you're seated, you'll be handed a fishing rod and some bait, after which you're free to go fish. Bear in mind: there's no such thing as 'catch and release' here. If you caught it, you bought it. Expect to spend ¥4,000 to ¥5,000 on dinner, though the price varies according to catch. Zauo does fish well, and even grilled it’s moist and light.

A combination of remarkably high product quality and premium store merchandising yields a palpable, 'This is a 100 yen shop?!' reaction. Seria’s fresh, friendly and homely feel makes it an all-round pleasurable experience to shop there. The product selection is roughly equal parts home necessities, DIY craft supplies, and clever knick-knacks. Seria stores are sometimes freestanding but also found inside most Marui malls.

Kinokuniya Book Store is located about an 8-minute walk from the New South Exit of JR Shinjuku Station. One of the nice benefits of shopping here is that the foreign books section is large, roomy, and well decorated - not just a few bookshelves in the back corner. This visit saw a large skeleton on display near the Popular Science books, and a large cut-out display of The Hungry Caterpillar for the kids. The store certainly puts a lot of effort into appealing to its foreign-language customers
