Japan is also famous for having a lot of vending machines dispensing
everything from snacks, softdrinks and beer to toys and electronics, and
even shirts and underwear! At the train stations there are also many
vending machines in addition to the kiosks that are basically
convenience stores. Here are a couple of vending machines and the
garbage disposal bins beside them.

Within the larger stations, there are also restaurants or eateries for
those wanting a quick meal but happen to have already gone past the
turnstiles. These are not your typical holes in the walls or fast food
types. Instead there are also full service restaurants or cafes. Then
there are food courts where commuters may have a good variety to choose
from like the Tokyo Food Bar that I found at the JR Akihabara Station.

| This food bar is very much like the food courts we find at malls. These
offer a variety of selections for the hungry commuter. The signboards
show the menus of establishments inside the food bar. |
