I found this place online and didn’t realize until we reached the door that it was a Michelin-starred restaurant. Made sense given the long wait we had to go through even though we were already there just 30min after opening time. They are quite used to this and have a pretty good system in place […]
Saw a video about this restaurant on Facebook and thought it would be interesting enough to give it a try. You can see a short clip of us entering the restaurant here. The music was a little loud at times but the staff were lively, friendly and very accommodating; especially given most of their clientele […]
Finally managed to visit this place again to get some pictures. I have been salivating for their beef bowls from the moment we decided to visit Tokyo again. My local friend brought me here last year and though there was a line, the food was definitely worth the wait. Red Rock uses the vending-machine system […]
I’m generally not a big fan of ramen, however for the sake of letting my friend try something new, we went to a ramen place along Akihabara. Surprisingly enough, I found out later on that this was quite a popular ramen shop too. They use the vending-machine process, which is especially useful for non-Japanese-speaking customers […]
Zauo has various restaurants across Japan and we were lucky to have one near our hotel. The restaurant’s selling point is their indoor fish pond where you have the opportunity to fish for your own dinner! Apparently each restaurant is designed a little differently, and as you can see here the one we visited had […]
When in Japan… how can you resist visiting a unique animal cafe? This cafe is located in Asakusa, within walkable distance from the Asakusa and is hidden among the many food and souvenir shops. But don’t worry about not being able to find it! This cafe usually has a few staff wandering around the streets […]
My brother’s go-to shabu-shabu place in Roppongi, Tokyo. It is a nice, quiet, fine dining restaurant so you’ll need to be prepared to spend some money but it goes by all-you-can-eat style so it’s worth it (especially if you go in a group!) in my opinion. Obviously, everything is refillable and the menu you’re given […]
The sign out front says it all: “We are a whale meat restaurant.” The meals come in sets (like the one at the bottom) with you choosing how you want the whale meat prepared for your main dish. Left to right from the pictures we had: raw whale sashimi, whale skin (separate dish), whale steak, […]
