Japan Food Trips

Tokyo really knows how to do the holidays! #japan #christmas #lit #tokyo #christmaslights #christmas #christmastime

How deep have you dug into the wacky, wild, and wonderful world of Japanese snacks? Whether you know a few of the classics, or grew up eating them all, I’m excited to share that the US now carries even more of my favorites! My absolute favorites out of this batch are the Original Mochi Puffs (dusted in a sweet kinoko powder), but I feel like a lot of Westerners will love the cheese version. You can now find these all over the US… you can even find them at some baseball stadiums! (Go @dodgers !!!) Another notable one is the sushi making candy kit, which is such a unique way to have fun with the kids. Grab some for the holidays and enjoy! ❤️☃️🎅🏼🎄💚 #japan #japanesesnacks #christmas #dodgers #snacktime #snacks #japanese #jfoodo

There’s nothing better than a full day of food and fun, followed up by a little bit more food and fun! This is one of our local neighborhood sushi spots that really shines. The relaxed atmosphere and jovial chef make this one of the most enjoyable omakase courses, matched with top notch quality and creativity as well! Each bite is carefully built to perfection with layers and layers of flavors and textures. When you book a tour with us, we are always more than happy to refer you to other amazing recommended locations and will even help you secure a booking or reservation!

Another dinner that will forever stay etched in my mind… Have you ever heard of Mt. Takao? Famous for autumn foliage and only a little over an hour from central Tokyo. Perfect for hiking or just a relaxing day away from the hustle and bustle, but what to eat in the area!? Introducing this stunning property that covers over 210,000 square feet of pristine Japanese gardens and scattered little tatami/shoji style minka cabins. They specialize in chicken but also feature incredible Wagyu, so come for the food, but relish in the magic. Would you like to try it? Drop a comment, and I’ll DM you the details of this unmissable gem! #japan #japantravel #japanitinerary #tokyo #tokyotravel #tokyotrip #foodtravel #ryokan #japanvacations #japanlife #wagyu #yakitori

When you sit down and see 26 menu items listed on your dinner course, it can feel very overwhelming, but a series of 26 dishes at “Series” is a fun adventure for your mind and palate. The fascinating course, which alludes to the name of the restaurant as a “continuous”experience, is based on traditional Cantonese cooking methods with a twist. Featuring unique arrangements such as drooling beef (not drooling chicken), chicken wings stuffed with foie gras, and Peking duck wrapped in kadaifu, there’s also a great pairing course that complements all of the dishes beautifully, combining wine, sake, and cocktails. This is their 5th year in a row to get a Michelin star and is a very reasonable price. Highly recommend! 📍Series in Azabudai #series #cantonese #michelin #japan #tokyo #foodstagram #japantravel #travelgram #cantonese #chinese #winepairing #tokyofood #gourmet #gourmetfood

Last week I had the sheer pleasure of guiding these two couples all over Tokyo! Not only that, but they trusted me in planning their entire Japan itinerary, which I broke down by the hour and meticulously planned for them (restaurant by restaurant and sight by sight) so that they wouldn’t waste one meal or one ounce of time while they were here. These four were so full of life and joy that I couldn’t help but have a smile on my face the entire time. They showed me the importance to never stop exploring at any age and to always have fun. Their attitude traveling was so refreshing. They were so gracious, appreciative and genuinely interested in all of it, which made my job a dream. Feeling very fulfilled after such an amazing week. Thank you, Katz’s & Kagel’s - I hope to see you again soon! ❤️🍱🥢 #japan #tokyo #foodstagram #picoftheday #japanfood #exploremore #whiskytasting #travel #highendtravel
