SHIBUYA: "Kiminchi De Nama Beeru Wo" 500yen Craft beer spot... with popcorn! Farewell Yelp Tokyo CM Rika-san gathering~

Half a pint of craft beer and a bowl of popcorn for 800yen to start... no getting around the popcorn.


Beers are all 500yen.


5 different types of beers on Tap.







Today was Tokyo Community Manager Rika-sans last day.  
It was a great 1.5 years... my two favorite events were the Indian Food with Belly Dancing in Yotsuya and the Awaodori in Shinjuku!






Yelp's best photographer!

There's a piano here.






This place sure did make the name of the bar difficult to remember...

NISHI AZABU: All Orders Burger joint... easy in and easy out spot sandwiched by ramen shops.

Between Nishi Azabu and Roppongi there are a few ramens shops but this is the only burger restaurant along this main road (Roppongi Dori).  



Hamburgers from 880yen.




I think the chewy bun was the most memorable part of the burger.


If you aren't in the mood for ramen this place is nice and quiet... plus you can order beer!


I stopped by the Aoyama Honda showroom and spotted the new Honda Civic Type-R!

SHIMBASHI: Bi-Fun Taiwanese noodle restaurant... just a very nice heartwarming bowl of noodles

Shimbashi has soooo many tiny restaurants geared towards the struggling salarymen on limited lunch budgets.  This day a salary-man co-worker took me to Bi-Fun for lunch!


Basic noodle bowl from 650 yen then you can select sizes and more expensive ones have more toppings.


This was so tasty... for a whole piece its 700yen but split this with my colleague.

Seasoned mochi rice is used and there is a tender piece of pork inside... kinda like the Okinawan buta-no-kakuni.

Here we go!  Slices of beef and cabbage topping.  Noodles were similar to very thin angel hair pasta.  The soup so tasty I finished it all.



Lots of salarymen and OL's (office ladies).  Counter seating if you want to eat alone.

Leave you with a Christmas Lexus spotting!

Spotted in the October 2015 issue of Brutus Magazine featuring local Chinese restaurants... it was on all 4 pages! Wow.
