The robatayaki is quite known for the locals and tourists as one of the traditional ways of cooking by the Japanese. It is also known as fireside cooking where the chef will cook a variety of dishes (chicken, seafood, and vegetables) over a hot charcoal beside the dining customer. The Robatayaki Mizukake Chaya is a little hole-in-the-wall along the small alley in Osaka filled with delicious food and gives off warmth through its ambiance. The best seat would be near the hot charcoal grill where the food is best served hot and well cooked. Each plate that is good for one person is at an affordable price of 330 Yen.

Located in Nishi-Azabu, just down the hill from Roppongi Hills, the Gonpachi Nishiazabu branch is allegedly the inspiration for the restaurant in Kill Bill. The food is more or less standard izakaya fare, with some better quality craft beers thrown in. The restaurant can be best described as a Japanese-themed restaurant in Japan. Tsugaru-jamisen music plays through the sound system, the staff are very boisterous, and there are taiko drumming performances. The target customer is very much non-Japanese.

One of the best things about Hokkaido’s eclectic dining scene is amazing seafood. Hachikyo (which has five branches spread across Sapporo) features delicious seasonal seafood sourced from fishing ports all over the island. The main shop in Chuo Ward has a rustic wooden interior, designed in the style of a banya (a communal fishermen’s lodging). The decor also resembles seafaring life: buoyancy rings, traditional wave art, fishing lights, and tairyo-bata banners (fishermen’s flags raised when a ship is returning to port with the day’s catch) hang from the walls. Hachikyo is famous for its ganso tsukko meshi, a rice bowl topped with salmon roe till overflowing, while staff members further enliven the atmosphere by chanting at your table. It’s one of Hokkaido’s most unique dining experiences.
