For the second half of our second day there, we went to Yebisu Garden Place where the Museum of YEBISU BEER was located. The Garden Palace was a short walk from the station, nevertheless there were still interesting things we spotted.
The Beer Museum was located at the lower level and it was free to enter. They had displays showing the history of Ebisu Beer. On the other side of the room, they had a tasting area and a gift shop. To buy beer for tasting, you have to buy coins from a vending machine and then go to the counter to order. We ordered a flight and snack set for the two of us.
That evening, we met up with my friend who had helped us bought tickets to the Ghibli Museum in advance at the Lopy machine. Those tickets have to be bought far in advance!
We forgot to take a picture together this time and this blurry picture is all I have! :(
We walked around a bit outside the Garden Place area to get dinner, and we decided on a restaurant serving Kyushu Style food. We ordered several yakitoris and a pot of nabe. The chicken broth was so thick and yummy! They served chicken meatballs with our nabe. They server brought a bamboo slate with raw minced chicken in it, and she made them to balls and plunged it into the nabe pot right in front of us. Oh my, I got hungry just thinking about it!
We also ordered sake with our meal. When they brought the sake, the also brought a tray with a selection of sake cups so we could choose the ones we liked. It was a great dinner!
The Ebisu Garden Palace area was filled with European style red brick buildings. It felt different from the rest of Tokyo. It was there that I spotted the first signs of fall colours.
