Next, dive into Tsukishima’s “Monja Street” to watch Monja-yaki sizzle on the griddle, chat with the cook, and savor this beloved Tokyo comfort food like a local.

Finally, head to Yurakucho for smoky yakitori skewers and cold sake or beer. Meet yakitori chefs, learn their craft, and try grilling your own skewer.
