Y'all been to Rak Thai in Shinagawa (two floors down, B1)? Best thai food I had in Tokyo, very reasonably priced and deliciousss. I used to go there several times a week.

[djrajio]

Never been there specifically but you can never go wrong with Thai food in Tokyo; I've never been to a bad Thai restaurant in Tokyo.

[Guest jmatsu]

uuuhhhhh....i sometimes go to monsoon cafe. does that count?

[bonjin]

I think you should go to rak thai.

(i've never been to monsoon cafe though I recall seeing it in a few places)

[Guest jmatsu]

I like this. Somehow I've missed it every time I've passed it. It seems to be linked to Stellato and Legato as well. The latter is the only one I've been to. Their drinks are nice.

[djrajio]

it is called stellato.

Stellato is in shirokane. It's great. And its owned by the same guys that do Tableaux in Daikanyama. Highly recommend it. The bar at Tableaux is amazing. Especially the interior. Very 20s-30s feeling. Guaranteed panty dropping venue if you bring a girl.

how has air and yellow been recently? i didn't club last time. i was hustlin.

Air and Yellow still have decent parties once in a while, but it all depends on who's spinning. Went to Warehouse in Azabu-juban last night and it was crawling with hotties... Stephane Pompougnac was visiting, so he drew a good crowd.

If you're looking for a more local flavor, Genius in Ginza or even Alife in Nishi-azabu are good bets too.

Has anyone checked out the reopened Pure in Shibuya? It's in the old Xanadu space... all you can drink all night for ￥３５００!

Has anyone checked out the reopened Pure in Shibuya? It's in the old Xanadu space... all you can drink all night for ?????!

Yeah, its usually pretty packed with unemployed NOVA teachers, tourists, and the standard Shibuya crowd. Either way though, its a cheap way to get fucked up fast.

Plus, by the dancefloor there is some kind of quasi-stage with a pole on it and if you're lucky--or drunk enough--the girl dancing will have all her teeth and be at least a B cup.

Went to an Ma Chambre http://www.ma-chambre.com/loungebar.html recently and there were plenty of rich, drunk Japanese girls guzzling champagne and stumbling through the hallway like easy targets.

[djrajio]

^^^^^ They held the ivy league alumni gathering there last summer. Pretty decent place but the bar is kinda small and its kinda outta the ways....

Ｉ was invited to become a member of Singles Bar EnCounter in Roppongi recently. Anybody know if this place is legit?

if it's not legit, you can give the membership to my boy yoji

Went to an Ma Chambre http://www.ma-chambre.com/loungebar.html recently and there were plenty of rich, drunk Japanese girls guzzling champagne and stumbling through the hallway like easy targets.

I liked interior of Ma Chambre. Went there for a party about a month ago and had a good time. But yeah, the front bar is small and I wonder if they fill up the place regularly.

We stopped by 57 last night for a few drinks. It's actually a restaurant with a large bar area in the front but it's setup pretty nice for a private party or something. Otherwise, good spot to start the night off.

[mizanation]

man, so much good info - glad i started frequenting this thread. on a much different topic...much different. does anyone have the remotest idea where i can find a bamboo cutting board in tokyo!?

honestly, my aunts are wanting one for christmas time...and, well, it's pay back time for all those holidays spent in portland during uni! thanks in advance!

positive rep worthy answer:

nigga i suggest dat you b going to 合羽橋

my dad took me there when i was little.

it's da #1 place for getting cookin gear (most of the shit is for professional use but anyone can purchase those jawns). the prices are super-competitive.

You can def. find a bamboo cutting board.

Take the ginza line to taharacho or hibiya line to Iriya

cool, i might check that area out next time i'm over there.

soundune, they might have one at tokyu hands. they got a pretty good selection of high-quality cooking wares.

[salaryman]

I wonder if they fill up the place regularly.

I don't think so. Its in a pretty random spot but usually does well as an event space.

And the filet at 57 is bomb.
