"A weekday dinner at a restaurant I was taken to by a business associate. I couldn't take pictures, but the private room had a beautiful Kabuki kumadori (makeup) decoration, creating a wonderful atmosphere. I heard that if you don't have a reservation, you might have to wait in line just to get in. The food was ordered as a course. The appetizer was"

"We went to [Restaurant Name] for lunch to celebrate a friend's marriage! The wedding is next year, but this was a celebration of their marriage registration.

"I was in Tokyo on business and used this restaurant for dinner. It's located in the basement of Ginza, giving it a hidden gem feel. The interior is nice and the food is delicious, but it can take a while for the food to arrive and it can get noisy depending on the time and crowd. The service is polite and the prices are not too high."

"Descending further underground after entering the entrance, you'll find a truly atmospheric interior. This restaurant is often used for television filming.

"With over 300 types of sherry! A restaurant where Spanish cuisine and sherry pair perfectly! I visited "Sherry Club," known for its extensive sherry selection. This establishment is a sherry specialty restaurant where you can enjoy the pairing of Spanish cuisine and sherry. This time, I focused on popular menu items like ajillo and roasted Iberia"

"The paella course, available for two people during lunchtime, is quite comprehensive. While the paella itself is shared, other dishes can be ordered individually. This allows couples to create a diverse lunch experience. We opted for the seafood paella, and the balance between the juicy paella infused with the essence of seafood and the crispy 'soc"

"The gin infused with spicy sansho pepper was a truly shocking experience. Its unique flavor spread throughout my mouth, offering a refreshingly new sensation. The final touch of kombu tea added a seasonal touch, making for a delightful bar experience. I absolutely loved it. When I was paying, the staff member escorted me to the elevator on the 8th "

"Afternoon tea at the Armani Building in Ginza, on the 11th floor. The lounge floor is located on the 11th floor, accessible by stairs from the restaurant floor on the 10th floor. There is a bar counter, sofa seating, and even private rooms in the back. The afternoon tea menu changes with the seasons, and this time it was an autumn-themed menu"

"This kushiage (deep-fried skewers) restaurant is located in the Barneys New York building. The stylish and chic interior is spacious and relaxing. This was my first time trying kushiage in Tokyo, and I was so excited to see each ingredient come out one by one. I also loved that you could choose different dipping sauces to match each ingredient!

"A creative Italian restaurant with a charming atmosphere, offering delicious dishes. While both meat and seafood are enjoyable, I found the seafood to be particularly delicious. The glass wine selection seemed to require purchasing a prepaid card for anything truly noteworthy."
