In the early evening I headed back into Akasaka looking for a drink and some dinner. I had a bit of a shortlist of bars – one I couldn’t find, the other wasn’t open yet so I headed to the 82 Ale House.

Yona Yona Beer Kitchen, Akasaka-Mitsuke, Tokyo, Japan
After exploring some more of Akasaka in the morning with a visit to the closeby Hie Shrine I headed into the Yona Yona Beer Kitchen that’s situated pretty much right on top of Akasaka-mitsuke subway station.

Sansa, Minato, Tokyo, Japan
I was now back in Tokyo for the tail end of my trip. In the past I hadn’t explored the Akasaka area so was determined to do so this time.
A search pointed me to a restaurant / bar with very good reviews about 200 metres from my hotel by the name of Sansa.

Craft Beer Base, Osaka, Japan
I’d decided to head to the observatory at the top of the Umeda Sky Building. The indoor observatory on the 40th floor was open but due to the typhoon damage in early September the open rooftop observatory was closed 🙁 So after about 30 minutes I decided to head off.
Lunch time, well morning tea time, was approaching and the craft beer map pointed me to a couple of local establishments and I chose to try Craft Beer Base.

Beer Belly Tosabori, Osaka, Japan
After a 13 minute Sunday afternoon shinkansen trip from Shin-Kobe to Shin-Osaka followed by a local train to Osaka Station I’d settled into my hotel and was looking for somewhere for an afternoon beer and a meal.
A walk of 15 minutes had me outside Beer Belly in Tosabori pretty much at opening time. When I entered there was only one other patron.
