Quick summary - it’s a wonderful experience and you won’t regret it! 10/10 and S+ tier If you’re a fan of Shizuka’s videos, you’ll definitely love the Harajuku tour that she’s arranged. If you’re not (yet) a fan, this is a tour that you should choose. Either way, you should bring an extra pair of socks because the tour will knock the first pair off. Jk😉 Shizuka’s entertaining, engaging, and energetic personality really stood out as she led my wife and I and another couple through parts of Harajuku along the famous Takeshita street. It’s not just a foodie tour but she gives history and cultural insights about the area and street during the (too short) four-hour tour. We had so much fun as a group eating, drinking, walking, and talking. Shizuka effortlessly led an interactive tour as she guided our group. She made sure that everyone had opportunities to engage in the activities like cooking okonomiyaki and selecting gatchapon, which made the tour much more interesting than just being led around listening to a taped or scripted tour. Shizuka shared her knowledge and experiences in Japan and gave recommendations about other foods, areas, and activities based on people’s interests and questions. We enjoy her videos on YT and her tour definitely did not disappoint. We really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend it to everyone. Time really flew because we had so much fun. We will definitely look for more tours with byFood and Shizuka on future trips to Japan.

After watching countless byFood videos on YouTube, we decided to book the tour with Shizuka — and it turned out to be the best decision we could have made. The tour offered the perfect blend of fascinating information about Harajuku, fun activities, and a wonderful variety of delicious foods. Shizuka’s open, cheerful, and irresistibly positive personality made the entire experience unforgettable, and the time just flew by. For anyone who has the chance to join Shizuka on this tour, it’s an absolute must-do — it will definitely be the highlight of your Tokyo trip. Thank you so much for the amazing tour, Shizuka!

I was always interested with doing some sort of tour in Japan but could never figure out which one to go on. The moment I found out Shizuka was hosting the Harajuku tour I immediately knew that if there was any Japan tour for me to go on that this would definitely be the one. That instinct did not steer me wrong because this was absolutely one of the most memorable moments of all my trips to Japan! Shizuka is just as kind, bubbly and endearing in all of the videos she is in, maybe even more so! I have to admit that I was nervous meeting her but her genuine personality makes everyone feel so comfortable to the point where it feels like we’ve known her forever. She is also amazing with children. There were two in our group and she engaged with them in the most cool auntie way! Shizuka really made this tour so much fun and very informative with her knowledge of Japan history. She is just so much fun to be around and If she’s still doing tours by the next time I plan a trip back to Japan you can definitely count me in! I really had thee most amazing time. This will be a memory I will cherish and hold dear in my heart forever. Arigato gozaimashita Shizuka!!

We had an amazing time with Shizuka! Our kids (ages 6 and 9) thought this was one of the best things we did in Japan- they had the opportunity to learn about the Harajuku culture, to try tons of new foods (fun and delicious) and Shizuka kept them engaged and excited for the entire time. I really appreciated her patience and her ability to manage the group and our varying interests. The kids are already asking when we can go back to do another food tour with Shizuka!! Thank you, ByFood and Shizuka for hosting this incredible tour!

Discover the Ultimate Vegetarian Okonomiyaki in Tokyo

When in Tokyo, a city that's renowned for its extraordinary cuisine, food enthusiasts can indulge in an array of dining experiences that cater to various preferences, including vegetarian options. Among these culinary delights, okonomiyaki—a savory Japanese pancake traditionally brimming with various ingredients—stands out for its unique flavors and versatility. For travelers or locals adhering to a vegetarian lifestyle, Tokyo offers delightful vegetarian okonomiyaki experiences that should not be missed.

A Vegetarian's Guide to Okonomiyaki Delights

Vegetarian okonomiyaki is a must-try for anyone exploring Tokyo's vibrant food scene. This dish, often described as a Japanese-style pancake or pizza, is usually made with a batter that includes flour, grated yam, and water mixed with shredded cabbage. The vegetarian variant replaces traditional meat ingredients like pork or seafood with delicious vegetarian-friendly options that might include mushrooms, cheese, or even a variety of seasonal vegetables. Each bite is a flavorful journey of textures, enhanced by the rich and savory okonomiyaki sauce and a drizzle of creamy Japanese mayonnaise.

Many establishments across Tokyo offer the chance to either have your okonomiyaki cooked in the kitchen or to partake in the hands-on experience of preparing it yourself on a teppan (iron griddle) at your table. This interactive option not only promises fun but also allows for customization, ensuring your okonomiyaki is tailored to your precise preferences.

Experience Authentic Tokyo Dining with Vegetarian-Friendly Options

Tokyo, with its innovative culinary scene, sets a high bar for vegetarian dining experiences, and the offerings of vegetarian okonomiyaki are no exception. These restaurants and street stalls create dishes that maintain the authenticity of traditional recipes while ensuring that they accommodate a vegetarian diet. From quaint eateries in the bustling districts to hidden gems tucked away in quiet neighborhoods, each location promises a memorable dining encounter.

Whether you are a seasoned vegetarian or simply enjoy exploring different cuisines, the vegetarian okonomiyaki options in Tokyo impress with their authentic taste and creativity. The culinary journey goes beyond just a meal, providing a cultural immersion into Japan's flavorful traditions. Paired with local drinks such as sake or a refreshing Japanese green tea, your meal is sure to be complete.

For those keen on exploring beyond just okonomiyaki, Tokyo offers a multitude of vegetarian experiences including sushi, ramen, and izakaya dining. However, if okonomiyaki is on your list of must-try Japanese dishes, make sure your culinary adventures in Tokyo include sampling vegetarian versions of this esteemed delicacy.
