Here, admire the bronze statue of Hachiko, the devoted dog who awaited his owner daily in the 1920s, and observe the lively Shibuya Crossing nearby. This is where the guide will meet the group to embark on a culinary journey through Tokyo. The guide will provide a brief introduction before leading the group into nearby neighborhoods for the first tasting.
- Shibuya - A short walk across Shibuya Crossing leads to Gindaco, Tokyo’s leading takoyaki chain. Watch as chefs prepare sizzling octopus balls on a hot iron griddle, then share a freshly made tray with the group. With a crispy exterior and a soft, savory interior, topped with sauce and bonito flakes, this is quintessential Japanese street food.
- Shibuya - Next, wander further into the vibrant Center-Gai streets to Marion Crêpes, a celebrated dessert stand in Harajuku and Shibuya since the 1970s. Choose from sweet or savory crêpes — filled with fresh fruit, cream, or even tuna and cheese — and enjoy them while exploring the bustling backstreets. This stop highlights Tokyo’s playful food culture.
- Yurakucho - Return to Shibuya Station and take the JR Yamanote Line to Yurakucho (approximately 20 minutes). This ride offers a chance to relax, converse with the guide, and discuss favorite flavors experienced so far.
- Yurakucho - Upon arrival in Yurakucho, explore the nostalgic “under the tracks” food alley. At Andy’s Shin Hinomoto, sample 2–3 small dishes such as yakitori skewers, tsukune, or edamame, accompanied by a drink (beer, highball, or soft drink). This is the essence of Tokyo’s vibrant izakaya culture.
- Yurakucho - To conclude, take a short walk to Doutor Coffee near Hibiya Park. Savor a matcha latte and a shared dessert in a relaxed café atmosphere, ending the evening with a delightful final taste.
