Menya Wave is the ramen shop specialized in curry ramen. They only have one dish on the menu and is very popular and famous. The dish is called "Curry Tsukemen" that is dry ramen with curry dipping sauce. After you finish the noodle, they use the remaining curry sauce to make a soup curry rice, so dont forget to keep some sauce until the end!

Nisshindo is the nearest bakery from our house. My recommendation is the "Curry Pan" that is basically the curry bread. Curry sauce is a good match with deep fried soft and crispy bread.

Sightseeing
Tenshōzan Renge-in Kōmyō-ji is a Buddhist temple of the Jōdo sect in Zaimokuza, near Kamakura, Japan, the only major one in the city to be close to the sea. Kōmyō-ji is number one among the Kantō Jūhachi Danrin (関東十八檀林?), a group of 18 Jōdo temples established during the Edo period by Tokugawa Ieyasu, and dedicated to both the training of priests and scholarly research.[1] It is also the sect's head temple for the Kantō region.[2] In spite of the fact it is a Jōdo sect temple, Kōmyō-ji has several of the typical features of a Zen temple, for example a sanmon (main gate), a pond and a karesansui (rock garden).

Tsurugaoka Hachimangū (鶴岡八幡宮) is the most important Shinto shrine in the city of Kamakura, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. The shrine is at the geographical and cultural center of the city of Kamakura, which has largely grown around it and its 1.8 km approach. It is the venue of many of its most important festivals, and hosts two museums.
Tsurugaoka Hachimangū was for most of its history not only a Hachiman shrine, but also a Tendai Buddhist temple, a fact which explains its general layout, typical of Japanese Buddhist architecture.[1]
At the left of its great stone stairway stood a 1000-year-old ginkgo tree, which was uprooted by a storm in the early hours of March 10, 2010. The shrine is an Important Cultural Property.
