Rainy Tokyo Saturday




Rainy day in Tokyo Saturday and many parts of Japan. Temp went down to 12deg. No outdoors so it was decided to have lunch at our favourite restaurant, The Oak Door at Grand Hyatt Roppongi Hills.



Chloe loves this hotel although she has never stayed there. Several weekend lunches was all it took for her to ask: "I like this hotel, can we stay here?"


Outside was cloudy and rainy, lighting was poor. Wrong camera to be having is poor high ISO Olympus. But I had to try the Nikon 300mm on the 4/3 cropped sensor, so brought it along. Eventually I could not use as the weather did not clear it so only used the Zuiko 50mm F1.4 manual lense. Bright enough even for indoor dining to be shot as you can see below. Main course, Chicken Rottiserie on a bed of Cous Cous with Asparagus and Broccoli.




Rounding off a sumptuous main course was an exquisite fruit tart with ice cream.
