Cocktailia reader Camille, who writes a food, drink, and entertaining site over at wallflour.com, recently visited Tokyo and stopped by some of their celebrated bars. Of particular interest are two of the bars mentioned in the August Bon Appetit article, Tokyo: Cocktail Capital of the World. This article wasn’t yet online when I posted about it but it can now be read in its entirety on the Bon Appetit web site.
Camille stopped by The Tender Bar in Ginza and Shoto-Club in Shibuya, both mentioned in the article, as well as a third, Misty Opar’s, and shares her experiences in words and pictures in her latest post: Cocktail Culture in Tokyo. Anyone who was interested in the magazine article should really pop over and check it out; it’s interesting to read first-hand experiences about these places so soon after becoming intrigued by them after the Bon Appetit feature. I don’t expect to get to Tokyo any time soon but this will hold me for a while.

thanks for the mention on your awesome website. I got the tip off about the article from a friend, but Cocktailia saved me from having to run out and find a copy of the magazine the night before i was leaving on my trip. It was the only place on the internet that i could find the list of the bars mentioned in the article, since most magazines have a lag time in getting their articles online.
Thanks again!
