The smallest bar I have ever had a drink in
Monday was my last night in Tokyo, and I met Mayumi for sushi and a few drinks...
We were around Shibuya and went to a conveyor belt sushi place which was nice - although me having my inherent distaste for wasabi meant we had to order specially for half of the sushi...still..they made it in about 30 seconds so it wasn't really that much of a chore.
We went to a few different bars afterwards, but the one that stood out is pictured below. Shibuya being a main station in Tokyo, there are train lines that go out in every direction, most below ground, but there's one which goes towards Harajuku. On the one side of the tracks there is a row of small houses which I hadn't walked by until then. Almost all of them are restaurants or tiny bars...there is (at a push) enough room for 5 or 6 people around the bar on the ground level, and they all have steep stairs up to a second level.
Anyway, back in London now - have a look at the two pics of the bar - first one is blurred I'm afraid, but you get the idea...
