Thank you MVNYC. I was thinking about Chocolate Babka too! If we decide to eat in, do you know good bread instead of the bagels to eat with the fish?

I will be in the city this weekend, and stay at a hotel really close to Zabar's. Because I travel with small kids, I am thinking to take out food from the store for breakfast.
What should I get there? Their bagels are good? Should I not bother to pick up them from H&H? Do you have any recommendation for kids?
Thank you very much in advance!

Usually Japanese supermarket starts selling Yuzu around/after Christmas time. It's because yuzu is very winter citrus in Japan, and also Japanese people use yuzu for New Year's dish a lot.

Tips for 7 days of eating/exploring in Tokyo!
I can't really give you exact name of resaturant you should go. There are so many cheap izakaya around Shibuya station now. For example, Kin-no-kura offers 270 yen for anything. I think you can still enjoy the food there.
For Ramen, Koumen is a chain ramen restaurant, but their ramen is pretty good. There is a branch in Harajuku;http://www.kohmen.com/shop/harajuku.html
I remember they have 2nd floor. And I took my baby with stroller there too. The regular KOMEN is really good to try.
Around harajuku area, Yanmo is my another favorite. They offer nothing bring, but really good rice and miso soup and great grilled fish. You don't see any tourist there. I have attached the map link too. Lunch time is better by the way. They have tatami space, so it would be nice to bring your baby too.

Umenohana is another chain restaurant which offer Tofu kaiseki. You can check locations you want to go. Many location offers individual room which is nice for a family with kids. By the way, if you want to ask if they have individual rooms, you can ask, " Koshitzu was arimasuka?" The phrase will be helpful.

I will post if I remember something again. Enjoy your trip!
