The newest one stop shopping destination in Japan is Tokyo Midtown, which opened at the end of March. Tokyo Midtown will include the tallest building in Tokyo and also houses the city's first Ritz-Carlton hotel, as well as luxury serviced apartments, a design museum, restaurants and shops, and a large park. The resident shops include Savile Row tailor Richard James, who is opening his first stand-alone shop outside London, Italian fashion brand hLam, Shu Sanctuary for Shu Uemura beauty products, and a Muji housewares store. And for those of you craving a skinny soy latte, there will even be a Starbucks. Tokyo Midtown will be a direct competitor to Roppongi hills.
