I guess now that I really think about it, pretty much anywhere that serves alcohol has it on the menu. I can even recall spotting it on a family restaurant menu. I doubt they serve it at French, Italian, etc restaurants... But the common ramen place or the like - pretty common.

The only grocery stores we really have here in Tokyo are 7-11, Sunkus, AM PM, Family Mart etc... None of which sell whale.

There have to be some kind of regular grocery stores around there. Normal families do buy food and cook, and I greatly doubt they`re shopping at convenience stores for everything. (The local 7-11, by the way, does have whale something or other by the alcohol.)

Btw, you don't need to type all the Japanese words in Japanese. I can imagine it might be quite annoying for someone reading the post who doesn't read Japanese.

Actually, with the number of Japanese learners on here, I`ve been asked quite a few times to avoid romaji and write Japanese
in Japanese. Plus, chances are, if they can understand ippinryouriten then they`re going to be able to read it.
