Harmonica Yokocho is an old-school drinking alley in Kichijoji, Tokyo, packed with tiny izakayas (Japanese gastropubs). It began as a flea market following World War II, and today it has the same retro vibe. By day, Harmonica Yokocho is a marketplace of clothing boutiques and street food; but by night, it transforms into casual, local drinking hub.
Tag along with byFood host Shizuka Anderson and Alejandro as they explore 3 bars in Harmonica Yokocho, tasting everything from “chicken surprise” to horse meat, and chatting with Kichijoji locals.
Join Alejandro on a bar-hopping tour of Harmonica Yokocho:
