Notes:
B and I spent one of the most enjoyable meals of the entire Tokyo trip at LB6. A few days prior to our visit we had passed the restaurant and taken note of how lovely it looked and we thus decided to give a try on our last night after having pre-dinner drinks at nearby Orangé. The food is simple but the quality excellent. The bagna cauda we had was just right and perfectly accompanied by an extensive vegetable assortment served on ice. The sea bream was of an amazing, tender quality and the ham... oh, the ham... if you go there, get the assorted hams! Another plus is their varied yet affordable wine list. After 10 days in Tokyo our student bank accounts were hurting and we went for a bottle of white from Portugal, very competitively priced at just 2,500yen. Turned out to be a crisp, mineral wine and provided excellent value for money. The menu also featured beers from local Baird Brewing and a handful of cocktails. All this set us back less than 8,000yen, which I found to be exceptional for Japan standards. Highly recommended.
