The address is 1-25-11, Niihori, Edogawa-ku, Tokyo, Japan but, when I submit it through Google Maps (as is) nothing comes through for me. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a typo? If you can pull it up can you please send me a link of this spot… Thanks alot! ---

[http://diddlefinger.com](http://diddlefinger.com) then click English Address Search and then work from the bottom up (Tokyo, then Edogawa-ku, etc).

Diddlefinger? OK, then. Some porn entreprenuer must have been gobsmacked when he found that domain name was taken by a mapping website.
