Japan Trip - Izakaya, Shinjuku

Japanese Mamak

On our way back to Shinjuku Train Station, we came across this huge food sales. Crowded with people, and food and freebies. Staff there are pretty generous and nice, explaining what kind of food they selling in English and free taste. YUM! But is super packed, I can't even bring out my camera to take a good shot.

Our friend here is leading us to the suppose to be Yakitori stall, knowing a good stall serving those, so we followed him, but tragedy happens.

Before of that incident, lets enjoy the Shinjuku street.

Yebisu, one of the best beer in Japan. In fact, all beer locally made are great!
Thirty and hungry, beer first! Get drunk on the first day.
Beer!
Nama-Biru, means draft beer. Smooth, smooth beer
Wait, are those... wait, yup we are in Izakaya(as mentioned on the above pic), the food here are just good for beer, not hungry filling comfy food.

And my friend tell us he read it wrong, some Japan University student of him can't even get restaurant right.

However, it was a fun experience, getting drunk in the evening.
