This bar is located on the streets of Asakusa in Tokyo, Japan... I stumbled upon it! From looking inside from the outside, we felt it had a great overall vibe, so we walked in without a reservation!

We were lucky that there was just one last empty table available and two spots at the bar. It seems that even on weekdays, the business is pretty good—if anyone plans to come here later, it might be a good idea to make a reservation to avoid waiting too long at the door!

We ordered a cheese platter and a seasonal fruit cocktail. The fruit used now is strawberries, and I love the sweet and sour taste of fruit, so I was really looking forward to what kind of cocktail could be made with strawberries. However, I was a bit disappointed; I’m not a fan of milkshake-like cocktails, and that’s exactly what they made—a strawberry milkshake. It also had a bitter alcohol taste that wasn’t balanced well. Although it wasn’t unpalatable, it just wasn’t my preferred flavor. Compared to strawberry cocktails, I prefer something like a strawberry margarita that I had in Hawaii!

However, my friends' whiskey and old fashion cocktails were very well made, with a rich smoky flavor, and the straight whiskey quality was quite decent! The cheese platter we ordered was also good; I must say that Japanese cheese really has a high standard, even blue cheese doesn’t have that strong unpleasant smell.

Overall, there weren’t any major issues—the bartender was enthusiastic, the atmosphere was nice, and the cocktails were decent. It just happened that my cocktail didn’t match my taste. If anyone is in the area, feel free to experience it and let me know if you have other cocktail recommendations! ^_^
