This post is about our most serendipitous discovery so far. Whilst looking for public toilets (as is often the case when one spends about 10 hours a day wandering the streets) we stumbled upon this neat little alleyway that follows the JR Yamanote line between Yarakucho and Shimabashi.
It's a string of little eateries that are actually situated underneath the arches of the bridge the train line runs on!! Brilliant!! Most of them were Yakitori places. (Yakitori = skewered bite-sized pieces of meat and veg cooked over hot coals) We often see loads of business people getting drunk at these restaurants as the yakitori seems secondary to the beer and sake they consume.
Another place we passed in the same alley.
We chose to eat in this open yakitori place (as opposed to one of the indoor places) as it was packed and had a menu in english (bonus!)
And darn, was it good! (That was Adam's beer by the way, not mine)
A trip to BIC Camera was inevitable after dinner as it's right next to the station. 8 floors of electronics. Wild stallions couldn't drive Ad away.
