My favourite dish was the eel. Eel is an unique dish that you do not have the chance to enjoy most of the time. The tenderness of the fish, cooked by experienced chefs made it an incredibly enjoyable meal. The portion of all the food was incredibly filling, and the the guide was enthusiastic.

My host Hibi was really amazing and I have had a great time around the area of Kichijoji, which is really worth a visit. Hibi was not only very familiar with the neighbourhood (and she is also known by many people in the neighbourhood) but also impressed me with her knowledge. I highly recommend this tour, even if you haven't been to Shibuya or Shinjuku yet: Tokyo has so much to offer: A detour to less popular parts of the city, but no less exciting for that, is definitely worthwhile.
