Derek Freal abandoned the American Dream in 2009 to travel the world and eventually realized that Asia is the best part, which is why most of his writing covers India to Indonesia (and everywhere in between). However Derek"s specialty is in unique and offbeat travel guides -- not just for Asia but countries across the globe -- and in producing travel videos. All this and more as the nomadic journey continues on http://blog.theHoliDaze.com.
Nakajima is a cozy restaurant with a bar and several tables, enough room for a couple dozen people or so. An open kitchen allows guests to watch the chefs at work and provides a little entertainment while waiting for your food. The lunch menu is limited to four options but will leave you full and satisfied while only setting you back around by 1,100-1,200 yen. However, dinner is where Nakajima really shines. The 10 course Chef’s Selection with wine pairing comes with a price tag of 15,000 yen, but even that is inexpensive compared to the quality.
Recommended dish: Nakajima is known for their sardines and they come prepared in a variety of ways—all of them delicious!
