My friend and I are coming to Japan for a few weeks in June. Coming into Tokyo on June 5th.. looking for some good bars to check out that night. No clubs or anything, more low key, we're just looking to kick back and have a few beers. Any suggestions?

during my stay in Tokyo, i went to this place called 大黒屋 (daikokuya) in Asakusa. The tempura there is moderately priced and fairly good. Its really near Senso-Ji temple - its fairly well known so shops nearby should be able to give more specific directions.

a few good tempura jawns round there

shits always fuck all crowded tho

[sircheesecake]

Getting a blowjob in karaoke by a 23 year old married girl who showed up in a $1000 burberry coat and wearing pearls was certainly a new experience.

Sometimes I love Japan.

Doesn't really count unless you ate

lukewarm edamame while it went down.

Will be in Yokohoma in two weeks... what are the best nights to go out in Tokyo? Should I book a room for a night or two since trains stop running at late night?

Also, clubs, bars and anything fun. I don't want to sleep in Tokyo.

[sircheesecake]

If you are kicking it with someone in j-land, kick it with a baller like djrajio.

Im not even in Tokyo. Nightlife in my town is NONEXISTENT. We can go cow tipping or something for fun.

[Guest jmatsu]

what burberry coat did she have?

[DaBestSpoona]

what burberry coat did she have?

probably blue label peasant shit, its a small town afterall

Hey, I hate to ask this kind of shit, but I'm curious to hear some other opinions.

I'm graduating university in about a week, and I very likely will be heading to Japan on a tourist visa to stay with friends while I look for a job, mostly in Osaka, but in Tokyo too. There is the big bilingual Career Forum in early July in Tokyo that I might be going to, but it seems like most of the jobs it hooks up are typical mind numbing corporate/IT jobs.

So what I'm curious about is what some other good options would be to keep in mind while looking for work. I'll be taking and likely passing JLPT 1kyuu this winter, and I have work experience in Japan (moderately upscale restaurant) so my options are a bit more open than other foreigners.

Is there any chance of hotels or places of that nature supporting work visa's? I'd prefer not to go the ALT route, so have been considering translation work (tiny bit of experience, barely enough to count), or something more service-industry oriented, though I'm open to a lot of other options.

Let me know what you think, or if you know about anything, I'd be forever grateful. PM or on here works.
