Ningyoyaki, or literally baked dolls are a famous sweet snack from Asakusa in Tokyo. They are basically small cakes filled with red beans in different shapes. There are many shops that sell Ningyoyaki at the Nakamise Shopping Street that lead up to the famous Sensoji Temple. Among them is the shop Kimura, founded in 1868 and also the founder of the Ningyoyaki. They were originally in the shapes of Shichifukujin or the Seven Lucky Gods. So, you can imagine if there was instagram back then, it would have been a big hit on social media!

Tokyo Guide: Try the original Ningyoyaki at Kimura near the Sensoji Temple in Asakusa.

If you are wondering what to add to your Tokyo things to do list, add the Kamiya Bar! Kamiya Bar opened up in 1880 and is the first western style bar in Japan. Their special house drink, Denki Bran (Electric brandy), has been served here for over a century. Its a mix of brandy, gin, vodka, curacao, herbs and other secret recipes to make this tasty alcoholic drink. It use to have a 45% percent alcohol content back in the day, but has been dropped down in recent times. You can order two different Denki Brans, one with 40% or one with 30% alcohol content. But beware, its tasty and cheap (about 2 US Dollars for a generous pour) so choose wisely!

Tokyo Guide: Denki Bran at the oldest bar in Japan.

Japan recently started to have enormous amounts of popularity in celebrating Halloween. For your Japan tour guide we have suggestions on what to do for any Halloween lovers! We know that Shibuya and Roppongi Hills will have massive street parties that have been notorious for massive crowds dressed up in costumes. However, this year the city government of Shibuya will be cracking down on Halloween to make it less chaotic by banning public drink the week of Halloween. That would be from the 27th of October to the 2nd of November. If you do not like crowds we would advise that you avoid those places on Halloween, but if you don’t mind it and love Halloween, then visiting Shibuya or Roppongi Hills will definitely be a check off of your things to do in Tokyo, Japan list.

For more family friendly seekers, we recommend the Kawasaki Halloween Parade on Oct. 27th, 2019 from 2:30pm-4:00pm. Creative and fun participants will show off their costumes around a 1.5 km course around JR Kawasaki Station.
