Howdy all, tell me if I’m making a massive mistake with any of these restaurants. For some context, I’m spending 7 nights in Hokkaido, where I’m doing two omakases, including one at Sushi Sohei in Sapporo. Also doing a kaiseki meal at Suyama in Sapporo. I’ll likely report pretty extensively on the Otaru/Sapporo leg of my trip, but seems like there haven’t been quite enough visitors to Sapporo to pin down any must eat spots.
In Tokyo, I meant to book Kurosaki for sushi, though while I was waiting for the counter to open up, the private rooms got booked as well. Woof. Another question I have is this: any of y’all stayed at the Mandarin Oriental? It’s only 650 a night for the second leg of my Tokyo journey. Is that a must stay?
night 1 dinner: Butagumi.
day 2 lunch: Tempura Miyashiro for lunch
night 2 dinner: TBD, suggestions?
day 3 lunch: TBD, arriving at Haneda at noon or so, hotel in Ebisu
day 3 dinner: Yakitori Takahashi
day 4 lunch: TBD
day 4 dinner: Ukiyo. Has anybody been here? This is my wildcard resy of the trip.
day 5: Haneda airport, what’s the best spot to eat?
