We started our day at the oldest fish market in Tokyo. Three things stood out. The Toro was the absolute tastiest fish I have had in Japan. There are 3 different fat grades. We, of course preferred the fattiest. It melted in our mouth like butter. We moved onto grilled Wagu with sea urchin and popped a few other things like prawns, crab, and scallops. I think our guide thought we were nuts. We cruised around the market for a couple hours savoring the most beautiful fish I have ever seen. It truly is a chefs dream. We finished our tastings with a chocolate mochi with red bean and a fresh strawberry. Next visit, I want to see the tuna auction which is held at 5: 00 am.
The rain continued most of the day so we indulged in the spa for massages before we ventured out for our next food tour!

Six of us ventured out to the red light district for a pup crawl with the most adorable guide. We met the greatest family from Charlotte and we again ate and ate. This time we included Sake tastings. There are so many cool districts in Tokyo. This was neon and very colorful. It is known for the business men coming after work and enjoying “bar food” and a drink.
Super fun in the rain and we ate fish, Goyza, and lots of SAKE!
