Tokyo Must-do

Tokyo is a place like no other, a city where the east meets the west in a very unique and spectacular way.  From traditional Japanese culture, to minimalist modern architecture and from real-life cartoon characters to the eclectic and delicious selection of restaurants, Tokyo is one of the top 10 destinations of a lifetime. As if it is in a world of its own, this city is in constant flux !

Heres’ my top ten!

  1.  Enjoy the best chicken katsu, the go to dish of Japan, at Torikatsu Chicken Shibuya
  2. Taste a traditional Japanese barbecue at Yakitori no meimon akiyoshi – you will not regret it!
  3. For a modern western brunch visit the Garden House Crafts, be certain that the Japanese element will still be strong!
  4. Coffee culture is strong and bustling – Pause here for the best concept coffee in town at Koffee Maneya
  5. Indulge in a sweet treat at Bake Cheese Tart bakery situated in Shinjuku
  6. Go on an evening walk around Shinjuku area – from the Shinjuku Gyoen with its endless green, a staple of Japanese landscape, to the bustling built landscape of the Hanazono Shrine or its skyscrapers
  7. Visit MORI Tokyo’s digital art museum – in ways only Tokyo could deliver!
  8. For luxury shopping pass by the Ginza district
  9. For more affordable and vintage shopping, without any discounts on fascinating and interesting pieces, go to the Shimokitazawa area
  10. in typical Tokyo fashion, a wealth of concept stores in the Omotesando area are waiting to be explored!
