  • Another shoutout to @kazraid and friends who showed us such a good time at Tokamachi’s いっぷく, a smoky izakaya recommended by @__ikote__no__mariko__, where we shocked the master by ordering the entire selection of お勧め (daily specials), an assortment of delicious seafood and fish plates, some raw, some cooked, along with an avalanche of sake, beer and shochu from all directions haha (some of which we paid for). Oh and the really good offal otoshi (free drinking food). #十日町 #日本 #新潟 #料理 #居酒屋 #刺身 #魚 #酒 #日本酒 #japan #tokamachi #niigata #izakaya #bar #soju #sake #sashimi #fish #seafood #food #foodporn #foodie #foodphotography #foodstagram #eats #eater #shochu #焼酎 #和食 #japanesefood
  • I scored this gorgeous (and delicious) yuzu tart and dark hot chocolate at the unwieldily named @greenbeantobar_chocolate. This Nakameguro chocolatier houses a lab, shop, and cafe in a large, bright, airy space. I didn’t try the coffee. #tokyo #japan #nakameguro #craftchocolate #chocolate #beantobarchocolate #chocolatier #bakery #日本 #東京 #中目黒 #チョコレート #ゆず #パン屋 #ベーカリー #カフェ #カフェ文化 #cafeculture #food #foodporn #foodblogger #foodie #eat #eats #bakery #dessert #eater #和食
  • After our first obligatory visit to Asakusa we hiked down the Sumida River to ちゃんこ巴潟 (Chanko Tomoegata), a wondrous nabe spot in Ryogoku. #ちゃんこ鍋 #日本 #東京 #両国 #隅田 #料理 #chankonabe #nabe #japan #tokyo #ryogoku #sumida #food #foodie #foodblogger #foodporn #foodphotography #eat #eater #eats #letsguide #和食
  • My favorite #engrish of all time deserves a permanent post. Tokamachi, Niigata’s Crazy Hores (!). Coincidentally it’s a snack bar (girls bar). #japan #niigata #tokamachi #snackbar #sign #japanese #日本 #スナック #スナックバー #日本語 #十日町
  • If exploring 谷中 Yanaka, definitely stop by @tokyobikerentals for an @onibuscoffee and peruse their very cool select shop. People are super friendly. I imagine you can also rent bikes there haha. It’s close to @vanertokyo (see my previous post). #日本 #東京 #谷中 #上野 #コーヒー#japan #tokyo #taito #ueno #yanaka #coffee #cafe #thirdwavecoffee #specialtycoffee #cafeculture #thirdwavewichteln #エスプレッソ #espresso
  • Top-notch sourdough cardamom and cinnamon buns produced at @vanertokyo, along with some of the best croissants I’ve had, from heirloom Norwegian wheat that is ground for that day’s baking. It’s housed in the Ueno, Tokyo mixed use community center 上野桜木あたり(Ueno Sakuragi Atari), which inhabits 3 traditional, converted private residences in the old-school neighborhood of 谷中 (Yanaka). Vaner and neighboring shop Oshi Olive (Salt & Olive), with a takeout window specializing in olive leaf drinks (!) -are tucked away behind 谷中ビーるハル(Yanaka Beer Hall), a convivial space at which to enjoy their solid craft beer and good snacks such as karaage and shumai. #yanaka #yanakabeerhall #ueno #taito #vaner #tokyo #japan #nezu #谷中 #谷中 #上野 #東京 #パン #ビール #料理 #bakery #croissant #sourdough #日本 #foodie #foodblogger #japanesefood #foodphotography #food #foodporn #クロワッサン #パン屋 #ベーカリー #letsguide #kodawari #こだわり
  • 鳥房 (Torifusa) is a chicken restaurant in the rear of a chicken butcher in the forgotten-by-time Tokyo neighborhood of Tateishi (立石). Arriving at dusk, we ran into the same group of friendly locals we had shared a communal table with at our lunchtime destination, the motsu skewer spot, 宇ち多 (Uchida). The service was brusque and not in a friendly way, but the nicest old battle axe took pity on us and dismantled our fried chicken for us. The otoshi (free drinking food) of chicken skin was scrumptious, and we enjoyed everything else we ordered including a raw chicken dish. It was amazing to see the chef wielding his xxl cooking chopsticks in the open air kitchen at the shop’s front. #立石 #形成 #料理 #鳥 #東京 #日本 #鳥房 #chicken #friedchicken #tokyo #japan #tateishi #japanesefood #japan #foodie #foodblogger #foodphotography #foodstagram #food #foodporn #レストラン #katsushika #葛飾区 #和食
  • The centerpiece of our gut-busting multicourse meal at Tokamachi’s 松喜屋 (Matsukiya) was a beautiful platter of temari zushi, but we also had a bunch of seasonal, local vegetable and fish dishes. ＃十日町 #新潟 #日本 #料理 #寿司 #手まり寿司 #japanesefood #sushi #temari #japan #niigata #tokamachi #localfood #food #foodporn #foodphotography #foodie #foodstagram #foodblogger #松喜屋 #和食
  • More gassho zukuri (合掌造り) goodness. The scenery is mind blowing. I hope I can return in the winter sometime. #合掌造り #japan #shirakawago #白川郷 #ainokura #相倉 #岐阜 #日本 #scenery #landscape #worldheritage
  • A late morning visit to Kanazawa’s 近江町市場 (Omicho Market) scored cheap, fresh, sweet uni and plump scallops that we scarfed down standing, and delicious grilled dozeu (pond loach) and unagi. What a great experience. #seafood #kanazawa #japan #omichomarket #japanesefood #金沢 #日本 #近江町市場 #料理 #どぜう #うなぎ #uni #ウニ #うに #food #foodporn #foodpic #instagood #foodlover #eater #eeeeeats #foodpost #foodblogger #instagood #instafood #和食
