Hey! Would love your recs for restaurants we should try. We are there for a few days and staying near Shinjuku. We would like to try Ramen, Sushi, tempura, curry, izakaya, wagyu, and anything else you recommend. As for sushi, we are not very adventurous and usually stick to the standard stuff. My wife prefers fish that is torched or slightly cooked. Thank you!

Hello! My first time visiting Italy, and we are planning to spend 2 weeks in Tuscany. Would love any thoughts on how to plan for this trip. We like immersive experiences, are foodies, don't like multiple hops (two at the most), and aren't so much into touristy stuff. Here are my questions, and thanks to all of you for helping out.

1. Is it better to use Florence as a base and do day trips, or stay in a couple of cities in Tuscany? If so, in addition to Florence, could you suggest another city we should consider staying at?
2. Is it necessary to rent a car?
3. What are some must-eat places?
4. Any place you stayed at that you absolutely fell in love with.
