Tucked away in a row house a few blocks from the 930, Howard Theater, and other famous music venues lies an amazing little gem of a Japanese eatery. The menu is very seasonal But always amazing. No sushi, all small plates with a little sashimi. Sake you never heard of that dances on the tongue. Very worth the price of entry which is not bad if you have a little discipline with said sake and sashimi.

The single finest, private, most luxurious sushi experience I've had in my life.
It's my platonic ideal of what a night over sushi should be.
Ginza Kyubey is probably the best and most famous sushi restaurant in Tokyo without a Michelin star, with a history dating back to 1935.
Great vibes, fantastic service, tourist friendly (although you'll need a hotel concierge to book you a reservation, like most of the best places in Tokyo).
I've tried to visit here with colleagues or friends every time I've been in Japan for the past decade or so. Always worth it, plus the Ginza is a fun neighborhood to bounce around in at night after you're done.
S/O to lisaluvspizza for the inspo.

This is a cookbook with no recipes that will teach you how to cook everything. It covers everything there is to know about food -- from how it was discovered, how man changed it, how it is grown, how it is harvested and how to prepare and cook it. It dramatically changed my cooking life.

I spent most of my life thinking they were cat food at best. But I visited Clydes one day for bivalves and martinis and tried their new conservas menu. Now I am watching tinned fish reviews and eating all kinds of sardines.

Travel is about getting along with strangers. Being kind and generous tends to pay off 10x.
Also never book a connecting flight if at all possible. Takeoff and landing are your only points of failure donβt multiply them.
