The shortest of these ten journeys, and the only one that happens almost entirely at night. The days are for sleeping and walking.

The skeleton

  • Night 1 — Three tables to warm up: standing bar, yakitori, midnight dessert. Your guide has lived on this street for twenty years
  • Night 2 — Three behind the market: a counter-only kappo, an old couple’s oden, udon before dawn
  • Night 3 — Return to your favourite of the six (the owner already remembers you), plus two new ones

House rules of this journey

Forty minutes per table, no more. No reviews written, no owners photographed. Say when you are full — finishing is the guide’s job.

This is the skeleton of a journey that happened exactly once. Yours will begin from a blank page.
