The $4 Japan experience

Life is funny. Sometimes you can go for months without eating anything interesting, other times, you find a place like Happy Bear whilst waiting for a friend to shower.

What: Happy Bear

Where: Queen street, opposite the movies

Taiyaki (たい焼き, , literally "baked sea bream") is a Japanese fish-shaped cake.

You may think fish+cake=vomit, to which I reply, you otta be ashamed of yourself.

For $4, you can have a drink (Hot chocolate in my case) and a fish-shaped waffle with (chocolate/custard/red bean/cheese) filling, hailing from 1909 Japan.

This is the real thing, complete with good service from a cute little lady who doesn't speak English.

Read: gesturing.

For a rainy day snack, whale-meat free, check it out. Let Happy Bear make you Happy.
