MistaSparkle 0 Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 Alot of the coolest bars/clubs in tokyo that i've been to are places that someone had introduced me to, and are usually the kind of places I would never have found otherwise. What and where are your favorite bars/clubs? I'm a big fan of Milk in Ebisu to name one. Link to post Share on other sites

green 0 Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 What are those Gas Panic places you hear a lot about in Tokyo like? Link to post Share on other sites
mikazooki 0 Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 i hang in a cafe called salute. the coffee is awesome, and the music is jazzy and cool, and the decor like a 1970s airport lounge. there r a lot of cool cafs sprinkled around, often in quite out-of-the-way places.

enderzero 0 Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 Gas Panic bars are the opposite of the kind of place MistaS is talking about. Those are the crappy holes you stumble into before you realize there is something better. There are so many places in this city - small and large. Some places are cool any night of the week, some need the right crowd or company, and some just straight up blow. We checked out "Game" last weekend...you didn't miss much Jaime...it wasn't really my scene, but I hear it can be better on different nights. Womb is a really nice place (thx Goemon). As mentioned before Milk goes off. MistaS and I checked out a little bar in Naka Meguro called OVO that provided one of the best times I have had in this city. It is tiny but everyone that was there, especially the people that worked there, was extremely cool. I would like to check out the dude's other bar. Before I leave I still want to check out A-life and Yellow. Others?? Link to post Share on other sites
MistaSparkle 0 Posted May 8, 2003 Author Share Posted May 8, 2003 Definitely... Ovo was dope, and the owner is probably one of the coolest people i've met in tokyo. I wanna do some more exploring and find other little hidden spots like that. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 You're quite right, milk does go off. Tell me something I don't already know ender. Link to post Share on other sites
powwwers 0 Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 Ya hafta check out `Golden Gai` in shinjuku. Awsome place! apparently it hasn`t changed much since when the US moved in afta tha war. i read that there is somthin like 200 bars- all cramed into about four or five little lane ways. most bars only sit about 6 peeps! its not particularly `foreigner friendly`, but if ya go there and be cool, its sweet. tha jazz bars play some pretty way-out and obscure stuff! had some very memoranle nights in this part o` town. deff. worth tha visit anybody else been???

Bowler 0 Posted May 9, 2003 Share Posted May 9, 2003 Well Ocean, i dunno if theyve got the toad in the hole going but ive also had fish and chips, bangers and mash, shepards pie and a cornish pasty from there. not bad eh! however, the tabehodai beats them all and for a mere ¥1500! starts at noon with the footie at 3. maybe ill c u all there.

enderzero 0 Posted May 12, 2003 Share Posted May 12, 2003 Anyone been to Muse in Nish Azabu? Judging from how full the dance floor was on Saturday I would guess so. Kinda an ex-pat hangout, but it has cool decor and a cheap cover. Just watch out for the chinese girls. Link to post Share on other sites
