Night out at Tokyo's traditional alleyways
#tokyotrip
The famous Omoide Yokocho
When to go? 8pm-early morning
Location: West Side of Shinjuku Station
Omoide Yokocho is a cramped space where you see rows of tiny restaurants, some of them just with a counter, some of them with only a couple of tables. There is not much space to walk in these narrow alleys, you better bring a small bag with you. There are seafood and grilled meat - the grilled chicken has many different parts available, kushiyaki food on sticks, ramen noodles, etc. In winter, you may enjoy oden (food in hot broth).
The prices are cheap and you can eat quickly. You can also have a bite here and there to try different foods but the places being really packed you may be unable to find a seat at another restaurant.
Note: Bring cash, not credit card
Grilled chicken skewers Yokohama is a famous scenic pedestrian area in Tokyo. It is suitable for bringing a partner together. The price is very cheap. It is close to the subway station and worth walking. We think the store is delicious. On the way, I met someone singing on the roadside. I was impressed.
The grilled chicken skewers block is in the alleys near Ginza in Tokyo, with many old-fashioned Japanese barbecue shops. The price is very cheap and there is a very nostalgic feeling. Foreigners and locals often come here, so some menus will be marked in English. The seats are located inside the store, there are stools outside, and there are beer boxes on it. The price is really cheap. The environment is also very good.
We just came out of the subway, accidentally walked to think of Hengding, in fact, it is a Japanese-style street, in fact, it is not a little long, it is the building on both sides is the kind of Japanese style.
You should go here with an empty tummy so you can try most of the foods. We only went to two shops then went home. We also left a dollar bill at the shop- a sign that we were there 😅
Omoide Yokocho preserves Tokyo's culinary heritage. Sampling local bites while soaking in the vibrant energy of the alley felt like a genuine connection to the city's past
Omoide Yokocho captures Tokyo's soul. The cozy atmosphere and traditional food choices transport you back in time. An ideal spot to relish authentic flavors and culture.
What a cute street hidden between the bustling chaos of Shinjuku! these food stalls are so unique!
