It’s almost a month since we visited this place, but since you can’t go anywhere anyway, we might as well revisit it!

Natsuki Kikuya had posted about this place in her Instagram page, so I was curious about it.

But wait… a ramen place in Mayfair? 🤑💸

I looked at the menu on their website to make sure I would not have to sell a kidney to visit 😆 The prices seemed within the standards of ramen in Central London, and since there’s not a lot to look forward to these days, I made a reservation.

22nd May 2019: back to London, via Frankfurt

I have been procrastinating on writing this final post on this trip—I suppose it’s a combination of being tired and not wanting to accept that our finished trip was going to finish again, but this time in written form 😂

So, without any further delay… let’s talk about our last hours in Japan!

21st May 2019: an atmospheric walk, hanging out in Katsutadai, and a delicious last dinner

On this day, we packed up and went to the Narita area. We had plans to meet some friends in Katsutadai and sleep in an airport hotel.

20th May 2019: we find a Valencian bar near our hotel, fabric shopping in Nippori, sake tasting, tonkatsu for lunch, and beer with old friends

On this day we went totally off the beaten path and spent the time doing somewhat non-touristy things—plus we found a Valencian (!) bar just a few blocks away from our hotel! Of all the places!

19th May 2019: Art and soba noodles in Roppongi, hipstering in Nakameguro and Daikanyama, and kaiseki dinner in Ginza

On this day, we went to Roppongi to get our dose of ART, then spent an exciting afternoon of browsing and shopping, and finished with a kaiseki dinner in Ginza.
