If you’re interested in checking out Yatai food stalls in Fukuoka, this is the way to do it! It’s also a great first-night adventure in the city because Bruce is extremely knowledgeable and shares generously. My partner and I spent 4+ hours with Bruce, and we’d do it again in a heartbeat. We walked all over the city and stopped in three different Yatai stalls, eating tapas/pintxos style. Every bite of food and each drink we tried was delicious. It was a great intro to Fukuoka/Hakata, and a perfect way to visit the Yatai stalls, which could be intimidating to navigate for the first time on your own.

Hakata yatais are WHERE IT'S AT and there isn't a better person to show you the best places to try out than Bruce. I came to know about Bruce through a Youtube video he did for Japan byFood, so I was fairly sure coming into the tour that we'd be well taken care of. And Bruce did not disappoint! The thing about yatais is that their operational hours and days can be very unpredictable, so you need a tour guide who really knows the yatai scene and is not wedded to following a specific plan or script. Our tour was set for a Sunday night, so when we met Bruce, he explained that, although he had a plan in mind, there was a good chance we'd need to improvise along the way because it was a Sunday night. He proved to be right, as we needed to pivot right from the start because the madam running the first yatai he wanted to introduce to us did not set up for the evening. We ended up hitting a total four yatais, which included Ultra C (great oden), "Riverside Restaurant" (cozy izakaya serving some righteous ramen), Tomochan (grilled skewer goodness), and finally Bar Ebi-chan (literally an awesome bar sitting in the middle of the street run by a very professional couple). We chatted, ate, drank and laughed throughout the evening. Before we knew it, we'd been touring for almost 4 hours. Time flew by so quickly. A sign of a great tour and a great tour guide. We'll see you again, Bruce!

'요시'상께서 테이스팅 진행을 맡아주셨습니다. 일본의 위스키에 대해서 잘몰랐는데 여러가지 위스키를 마시면서 '요시'상이 친절하게 설명해주니 일본의 위스키에 대해 배울 수 있었습니다. ('요시'상이 영어를 잘한다는 부분도 참고하면 좋겠네요) 저 혼자서 예약해서 진행했음에도 편안한 분위기에서 즐길 수 있었습니다. 한국에서 구할 수 없거나 처음보는 위스키를 소개해주기에 위스키에 대해 어느정도 알더라도 새로운 경험이 될거라 생각합니다. 6박7일의 도쿄여행에서 가장 기억에 남는 좋은 추억이었습니다. 추가적으로 간식은 과자, 초콜릿을 제공하고 사진촬영과 동영상 녹화도 흔쾌히 허락해주십니다. "Yoshi" hosted the tasting event. I didn't know much about Japanese whiskey, but I was able to learn about it because "Yoshi" explained it kindly while drinking various whiskies. (Please refer to the fact that "Yoshi" is good at English.) I made a reservation by myself, but I was able to enjoy it in a comfortable atmosphere. I think it will be a new experience even if I know a little about whisky because it is not available in Korea or introduces me to whisky that I have never seen before. It was my most memorable trip to Tokyo for seven days. Additionally, snacks and chocolates are provided, and photos and video recordings are readily allowed.

We had such an incredible time with Bruce! Without his help my husband and I never would’ve had the courage to attempt going into the yatai stalls by ourselves. Bruce made the process very smooth and comforting. He has incredible social skills, and he’s amazing at putting everyone at ease. He was so much fun to interact with. Plus he knew all of the best spots, and all the best specialty dishes to try—it was all just so perfect! THANK YOU Bruce!! Even though we had just a short time together, we’ll never forget you and this incredible yatai tour <3 I really can’t recommend this tour enough!

Dan Ozu was very knowledgeable about Japanese whiskies. He catered my tasting based on what I liked. He knew which whiskies came from which Prefactures, as well as explaining the history behind Japanese whiskies. Overall, I give Dan 10/10 for his knowledge and experience. I'll definitely do this tasting again when I'm in Tokyo.

We had a great time experiencing local foods and drinks, and experiencing the energy and ambiance of Asakusa at night. The food and drinks were very locals recommended/curated, and delicious.
