Inokashira Onshi Park

Our food tour in Tokyo neighborhood begins at a depachika to experience one of Tokyo’s incredible department store food halls, where food pays tribute to both tradition and the newest trends. Making our way past highly prized pickles, fruit fit for a king and the aisle of Japanese junk food, we arrive at the sushi bar of choice among locals. Along Kichijoji’s bustling shotengai shopping street, we’ll rub elbows with locals as they shop for daily needs, learning about the basics of Japanese cuisine and tasting some of them, such as skewers of yakitori and octopus balls prepared and served street-side. We’ll meet three generations of a family of artisanal senbei makers working side by side in their tiny shop and atelier and, further down the road, we’ll visit a restaurant dedicated entirely to miso. We’ll sample unusual food rarely served outside Japan, such as sake infused with the fin of fugu, the famous puffer fish, plus expertly-crafted old standbys like tea and sweets.

Fun and authentic Tokyo

A fantastic day! Michelle was a fun, interesting and knowledgeable guide. We ate many wonderful foods, saw many interesting places and experienced an authentic and slightly less frenetic side of Tokyo. Highly recommended and well worth the short trip away from the main tourist areas.
Michelle was — in a word — perfect.

Michelle was — in a word — perfect. She was knowledgeable of the cuisine, area, history, and customs and was enormously instructive, all the while with good humor and her infectious laugh. It was so fun hearing her musical Japanese in her interactions, on our behalf, with store owners, sales clerks, and — well, just everybody!

CB never disappoints! Ken was our tour guide to what quickly became our favorite area in Tokyo. The food, service, history, experience were unparalleled. From a small family owned senbei shop to cocktails in harmonica alley. This was by far our favorite experience in Tokyo. Thank you, Ken!

We really enjoyed our food tour with Culinary Backstreets! Our host, Ken, was great and he was very knowledgeable about the food and culture of Japan. He showed us a side of Kichijoji that we would never have discovered on our own!

Had an absolutely fabulous and fun time with Michelle. She took us to the most special tiny hidden away places. We visited a sprightly 90 year old lady who still makes rice crackers in the traditional way. We tasted and learned about all the different types of Miso. And man oh man did we eat a lot of fantastic local food. Loved Michelle’s energy and spent the day laughing and learning so much. Thanks for a great tour!

Ken was a fantastic leader! Very interesting and a lot of fun, he connected well with all of the group, and was very knowledgeable and flexible. All of the food we tasted was wonderful and the stories and experiences connected to the meals and products made it even more meaningful.

Spending the day with Dennis while learning more about Korea through their food and customs, was the highlight of my trip. Dennis was thoughtful, friendly, extremely interesting, and super fun. Traveling solo, there is no way I could have tasted the abundance of food that we enjoyed, starting with the freshest sushi, fried,meatball, and take-your- life -in -your -hands and try the famous puffer fish which was exquisitely prepared. He also introduced us to a myriad of fascinating people, including a master meso chef, a generations old family, who made, artisanal, crackers, and a guided sake tasting. It was an incredible day, not to be missed.
