・Kagurazaka, one of Tokyo's six major flower streets
Kagurazaka is located near JR Iidabashi Station. It is one of the "Six Red-light Districts in Tokyo" loved by Japan's upper class. The cobblestone streets in the alleys are full of various red-light district charms, and quiet restaurants with a hidden atmosphere are scattered among them. Kagurazaka has been the residence of many writers and artists since the Meiji period, and the Tokyo Art Association was also established here. In contrast to Gion in Kyoto, Kagurazaka, Shinbashi, Akasaka, Yoshimachi, Asakusa, and Tsukudajima together constitute the "Six Great Flower Streets of Tokyo". Compared to its heyday, the number of geisha in Kagurazaka has been decreasing, from more than 200 to only about 20 active geisha today. This special arrangement allows you to get close to the geisha and communicate with them more freely without having to perform. It is recommended for travelers who love traditional Japanese culture!
※Since the product itself does not include a tour guide, it is recommended to use a translation app on your mobile phone to communicate with the geisha. Of course, if the VIP can use Japanese, he can communicate with the geisha more intuitively.
・A Japanese feast that combines tradition and taste: "Gion"
"Irori Yakiniku Gion" is located in the historic Kagurazaka in Tokyo. It has carefully renovated an 80-year-old old house, combining the name of Kyoto's Gion with the Japanese style to create a space where people can escape from the hustle and bustle and immerse themselves in Japanese aesthetics and the ultimate feast. This piece of land was once the location of the long-established restaurant "Tachibana", which inherits the profound Japanese hospitality tradition. Whether local guests or foreign travelers, they can all feel the most sincere hospitality.
The restaurant's main focus is on the "hearth" dining experience, using Japanese beef, pork and chicken, including high-quality "Kuroge Wagyu" and "Kobe beef". Paired with carefully selected seasonal vegetables and seafood, each dish conveys the chef’s respect and attention to detail for the ingredients.
As for drinks, the store has a rich collection of Japanese whiskeys, including well-known brands such as Yamazaki, Hibiki, Hakushu, Chita, etc., many of which are rare styles. It also has a magnificent "Japanese Whisky Wall" that is dazzling.
In addition, Gion also demonstrates unique taste in the selection of tableware, using all original tableware made from Mashiko ware and pairing it with wooden trays to enhance the overall dining aesthetic. The store’s interior decoration cleverly uses framed kimono belts and Japanese ink paintings of “The Moon” and “Red Fuji” to perfectly blend art and dining.
"Kagurazaka Warori Yakiniku Gion" is not only a yakiniku restaurant, but also a Japanese cultural experience that combines history, art and top-quality ingredients.
