Inua

Ah Inua. A super duper expensive place, that I really wanted to go to when I heard it opened, but after seeing how much it cost compared to actual Japanese restaurants, I didn’t want to go. But Thomas Frebel runs it, so…. Oh the agony!

However, I happened to have an extra couple of nights in Tokyo after my parents left, and decided at very short notice (two days), tried to book something. I tried to call Den about 68 times without success, but Inua was good to book online! And so here I was.

Japan 2019 – Part 1

Oh man too many holidays at once. This Japan trip was actually a family holiday, where my mum wanted to visit a heap of different places.

Japan, April 2017

Time to post about my second visit to Japan. While I was still pretty clueless, my brother had been living in Tokyo for a while now, so I pretty much had a guided tour, which was pretty cool. What I didn’t expect was for it to still be so cold the first couple of days! That was mainly because it was also rainy; the last few days were nice and warm.

I had wanted to book a nice restaurant while I was here, but alas, the ones I wanted were all closed! It wasn’t until afterwards that I realised that it was because the San Pellegrino World’s 50 Best awards were on. Then I didn’t mind so much that I missed out. Maybe next time!
