Mike and Crystal in Town

Mike and Crystal visited Tokyo on their way to China.  They came in on the weekend and also hit Kyoto for a day trip.  We were a bit busy that weekend too, so we just met up for dinner for a couple of nights.

The first night, we took them for  food tour, and hit up 3 places.  A 50 yen, yakitori (grilled chiken) izakaya (japanese tapas), Kushi-ya (skewers place) for some awesome grilled Japanese beef skewers, and a okonomiyaki place.  These pictures are from the second night.  We hit up Ushi Tora in Shimo-kitazawa for some Japanese micro brews and simple japanese style bar food.

This last item was miso pizza, an Ushi Tora specialty.
