Air Asia turned out to be okay.

It helped a lot that the plane was only about 2/5 full. I bought their lunch box, for RM8 ($2.11) mostly to see what was in it, which was: a Cadbury chocolate wafer bar, a sandwich-sized savory filled bun, a box of tea, and a souvenir pen.

I got a whole row to myself on the 737 and slept most of the way to Senai airport, then paid RM5 ($1.31) for the half-hour Causeway Link bus ride to Larkin bus terminal in Johor Bahru, then paid another RM2 (53 cents) for the Singapore Bus Service number 170 all the way to the stop outside my friend's condo. (Note to self: SBS services take exact change or EZ-Link cards only.)

I'd fly them again, I think.

Tokyo food recommendations, anyone?

My previous requests for pointers to food turned out very well, so I'm going to try it again. Any suggestions for Tokyo? I'd prefer places that don't break the bank (i.e., I'm not really interested in spending Y5000 on lunch, however good it is, sorry.).

Thanks in advance!

BTW, (tafkar) I got to Bill's! Thanks, that was great! Of course they'll be getting a write-up. And thanks to all the rest of you who suggested places which I didn't manage to get to...
