fukdane 2 Posted December 13, 2002 Share Posted December 13, 2002 There's been lots of talk of not much after hours fun in most resort towns etc. But where is the best if we are specifically looking for it? Link to post Share on other sites
nekobi 0 Posted December 13, 2002 Share Posted December 13, 2002 don't know if it's the best out there, but club universe at hakuba is pretty big. It was built for the Olympic athletes. There's also the snow'd in bar right down the street from snowbeds. Link to post Share on other sites

fukdane 2 Posted December 14, 2002 Author Share Posted December 14, 2002 Thats a rather large question(s) you have there. Why don't you spend some time browsing through the info to find out more?? Link to post Share on other sites
rachael 0 Posted December 15, 2002 Share Posted December 15, 2002 Take a day trip from Tokyo, come back and party in Roppongi from 10pm!! Perfect! Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Hakuba is probably the best choice if that's what you're after. Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Hakuba norikura is in Nagano 15 mins down the road it has no nightlife but good pensions. Hakuba NAgano Link to post Share on other sites
xxx 2 Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 All been said. Save the nightlife for the city. Enjoy the snow when you're up there. Link to post Share on other sites
SKI 15 Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 DOn't like the place itself, but the Naeba Prince on a weekend night is like a mini-town with lots going on and lots of trendies swarming around Link to post Share on other sites
Will Lee 0 Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 Nightlife isn`t all that high on my priority list. All I want after I`m done riding for the day is a good soak, a good meal and some good ZZZ. Yes, I`m getting old. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 I agree with Snobo there, perhaps with the addition of some mild painkillers if I've been doing too much inverted boarding. Link to post Share on other sites

Ocean11 0 Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 zwelgen, have you got any recommendations for good eats around Nozawa? We sometimes go to that winebar in the 'Plaza', but service is v-e-r-y slow, and sometimes they won't even let you in. The pizza and pasta log cabin on the main drag thru Iiyama is OK too. Know of anything else? Link to post Share on other sites
zwelgen 0 Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 Ocean if you want nice italian food there is a place in Kijimadaira village. Instead of going across the red bridge just out of Nozawa and goin back to the expressway on the bypass road (117 I think) drive through Kijimadaira village on the Eastern side of the river. Youll get to a Lawsons on the left hand side of the road so do a u turn and head back to Nozawa and at the first set of lights after the lawsons go left, towards the river if that makes sense and its along there, log cabin type place. Really good pasta. oH its called "doyobi italian" yum yum. Also on the main street of Iiyama (take a right of the bypass road at the big red bridge and then a left at the second set of lights) and there is a good ramen place along there.You cant miss it with the steaming bowl out the front, right hand side of the road. For other ramen there is a place on the same road as the log cabin place (surge). Its on the right hand side when heading out of town and looks pretty ave but tastes good. The Gusto is ming as is the kappa sushi unless you want an ultra cheap and untasty meal. Id recomend doyobi italian. THere are loads of soba/udon/japanese izakaya type places too but not what I usually want to eat post ski, dunno about you. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 Well that's something to be getting on with, thanks. Pasta and a good beer is really the thing for after a day on the snow. Ramen's OK, but not quite stylish enough. Cheers. I should check out Kijimadaira too. Link to post Share on other sites
echineko 1 Posted December 19, 2002 Share Posted December 19, 2002 Kijimadaira has a good steeper slope Link to post Share on other sites
igloo 3 Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 I quite like Gusto Ocean. I should be embarrassed I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 I went to Gusto for the first time the other day, and although the food itself wasn't stellar, it tasted and looked nice enough, and was really cheap. Drank a skinful of coffee too for 120 yen, a price that can't easily be beat. It's much better than some of the other chains. Link to post Share on other sites
jared 0 Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 there is something good about a ski/snoboarding crowd that you dont get with regular city night life - Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 Don't they have cool karaoke nights and discos/clubs over there? What a waste! For me, the partying is a big part of my boarding holiday Link to post Share on other sites
lore 0 Posted December 25, 2002 Share Posted December 25, 2002 It does seem a pity that there isn't much going on at nighttime. Does the daytime make up for that then sufficiently? Link to post Share on other sites
scoobydoo 0 Posted December 28, 2002 Share Posted December 28, 2002 I went to Yuzawa yesterday, and stayed overnight, came back today. The town was ok - quite a lot of restaurants and karaoke-bar you know the kind, but we couldn't find any decent bar-like places suited to us. Maybe we just didn't find them...
