Visiting an Izakaya 101: Tips and Advice from Sake on Air

Join Imada-san and Sebastien (and a late arriving guest) as they talk all things Izakaya. These Japanese drinking and eating establishments are the foundation of sake culture and the trio has a lot to say about where to go, what to order, and how to have a good time. They talk about which foods go well with sake and many of the unwritten rules of dining out in Japan.

When JSS’s map of recommended izakaya is released later this year we will link it here:

We’d love to hear your experiences at izakaya! Let us know at [email protected] or send us a message on our Instagram, Facebook, or Substack!

We’ll be back very soon with plenty more Sake On Air.

Until then, kampai!
