ZOSHIGAYA: Yamataro Onigiri Take Away Branch with one of the most amazing Hawaiian Spicy Ahi Poke rice balls in JAPAN! (iPhone 12 Mini)

I was watching one of my favorite Twitch IRL Foodie streamers Miki_Tokyo and she dined at Yamataro  Onigiri Dine In location...all the variety of rice balls looked sooo good! I had to go!

Arrived at 4:45pm... so had to wait a bit til the 5pm open. 

Friendly staff gave me a free hot tea while I waited outside. 

My absolute favorite Spicy Ahi-Poke!  One of the best in TOKYO!!

Had to customize with a larger portion of rice for plus 50 yen. Was tempted to get the double portion filling for plus 150 yen! Next time!

Lots of different ingredients line the chef counter.

The solo chef! Staff always friendly.

Here it is! There are 2 custom orders I want to try next time... The Extra topping that goes on top of the triangle and the double ingredients that go inside the rice ball. 

The Spicy Ahi Poke was soooo amazing! If you cant make it to Ogo Ono-loa Hawaii for a proper Hawaiian plate lunch then this is a nice option for poke.

Domestic extra portion rice! I will have to ask where its sourced from but very nice.

If you are ever in Ikebukuro just take a nice stroll to Zoshigaya for some wonderful Onigiri!

IKEBUKURO: Doma Doma izakaya moved! Weekends all you can drink for 1,200 yen (Normally 1,500 yen)... we drank and became drunks! (iPhone 12 Mini)

So where to go with a young millionaire and a retired elderly Japanese guy? Of course the cheapest place in all of Ikebukuro! All you can drink... dude!

Franchise Doma Doma Izakaya! Sign outside says 777 yen all you can drink! But thats just for weekdays.

QR Code Ordering System

Here we go! On weekends the all you can drink plan is 1,500 yen for 2 hours but we managed to talk the manager down to 1,200 yen.  But had to order 2 plates of food.

How does my multimillionaire friend Kenta always order the cheapest items on the menu! Dude!!

Really! Eggs that were probably processed at some factory.

Dude! More cheap food! The menu has so many great items.

The roasted chicken was very plain.  Boring... DUDE!

Mr. Sato eating the steamed pork.  This was pretty good.

Manager gave us the updated all you can drink passport coupon. 100 minutes of all you can drink for 777 yen but this doesnt include beer I think. With beer 1,000 yen?

Crackers... boring.

Grilled Manta Ray... this goes well with beer. It has a nice sweetness to it.

My final beeru! The waitress brought out the bill before our final plate of food came and Kenta was on her.  Said it made us feel rushed to get out of there... he managed to get us another drink even though our drink time was up.

The damage for 3! Not too bad if you like to drink alot but the food selection my friend ordered was rather scuff.  Oh well! If in Ikebukuro this place is great for drunks!!

IKEBUKURO: Sakaba Fukuro a very old skool Izakaya! 3nd floor tatami seats for bottled beers and simple appetizers. (iPhone 12 Mini)

 

2nd floor counter seating was all full so we headed up to the 3rd floor.

Place your shoes in a little plastic bag and take with you.

610 yen large size Bottled beer! My Fav!

Automatic appetizer.

Weiners! Dude! 450 yen.

Ham-Katsu 430 yen perfect for beer! I like this kinda greasy dish. 

Then we out! Think the cost was only 2,000 yen or so for 2 people.  Was just here for a few minutes to kill time before the main dinner with elderly Sato-san.
