GINZA BAIRIN
A long-established tonkatsu restaurant in Ginza. I also liked its previous atmosphere, but the place has been renovated and is now very clean and beautiful.

GINZA SIX GARDEN
Even at GINZA SIX, which can feel a bit intimidating, there is a spot on the rooftop where you can relax casually.

ARTIZON MUSEUM
Formerly the Bridgestone Museum of Art. It is located just a short walk from the Tokyo Station underground shopping area. I, as the curator, haven’t yet had the chance to visit the new Artizon Museum, but the surrounding area has been developed as well, so it seems like you could also enjoy walking around nearby.

HAMARIKYU GARDEN
A spacious Japanese garden surrounded by buildings and the sea. It used to be a feudal lord’s garden owned by the Tokugawa family. Visitors can enjoy the seasonal scenery while having green tea at the Nakajima teahouse. The pond is filled with sea water, so there are sea fish.

CHIKUYOTEI HONTEN
An eel restaurant with a history of over 100 years. You can enjoy delicious eel bowls and the cozy building is lovely. I really recommend this restaurant.

DAITSUNE UDON
They do not use chemical seasonings and say that their udon noodles are “safe, and you can drink up to the dipping sauce. Since this udon shop was started by a green grocer, vegetable tempura and avocado are recommended.
