One Minute Adjustment
While I was on a train, I heard an announcement that said the train would stop at the station for one minute for time adjustment. I was quite surprised because in other countries, they would not mention anything for just a minute adjustment. Even German people say that one minute difference is considered to be punctual in Germany.

Milkroll
This small bakery sells fresh bread they just bake right behind the counter. Each roll starts from 25 yen, and you can enjoy gentle flavor of butter and milk. With higher price, you can enjoy different flavors such as custard cream, red bean paste (anpan), french toast, chestnut, raisin, and other sweet items. Typically, you would see a line of people waiting in front of the bakery, so you can easily find it on the street.
