We'd like to thank our tour guides Yuta and Tad for providing us for an unforgettable and interesting tour and insight into Japanese food culture and customs. They are people from different backgrounds but share a passion for the travel industry and it shows, resulting in a highly enjoyable personalized experience and making us feel very welcome.
As for the tour itself, we requested a customized private tour since we're somewhat familiar with Japanese cuisine and wanted to try something different than the standard yakitori, okinomiyaki, takoyaki, sushi etc.
and wanted to taste new, uncommon and interesting things.
These guys provided just that and more by showing us around in a more local restaurant area and visiting 3 totally different places. We also got to know a lot of background of the foods and culture. To name a few things, but not spoil everything: fried stingray fin and hoppy (local beer replacement drink).
