My essays about everything I am interested in recently.
Costco is well-known membership warehouse club in the states. It is similar to Metro or Macro in Europe. Costco recently opened its 6th location in Kawasaki.

Although they have three other locations nearby Tokyo, Tamasakai, Kanazawa Seaside and Makuhari, this location is the nearest to Futako Tamagawa. To get there from Futako Tamagawa area, you just take Kampachi, Tokyo Metropolitan Road Nr. 311, or Tamagawa-Ensen Road, the road along with Tama River on Kawasaki side, until crossings with the national road nr. 15 and then go west. You will find the Costco on the left on the national road nr. 15. Its 7th location will be opened in Sapporo soon.
This chain restaurant is recently opened in Futako Tamagawa area. Do not expect the original Big Boy,
