JAPAN TRIP 2025: 12D11N in Nagoya, Kyoto, Kanazawa, Toyama & Tokyo

This trip, we went a bit wilder. Wilder in terms of area coverage, there were more prefectures we crossed in a single trip. Also, there were 12 pax in total in our group. So, it was a lot wilder as compared to all my previous

TOKYO Craft Sake Week 2026 @ Roppongi Hill (8)

This April, I have my bucket list ticked!!!

I flew to Tokyo for the Craft Sake Week 2026. It was an incredible event which I had been eyeing on for the longest time, for some years. It featured 130 handpicked sake breweries, each showcased through rotating daily themes, alongside top-tier restaurants serving exclusive pairings.

Thanks to my ultimate buddies who decided to tag along to this event. We had a great fun time during the event and also during our trip! (We are still bffs after the trip #iykyk LOL). Thanks to Jean who take charge on purchasing the ticket. After some calculation, we decided to go for Starter Set C that was priced at ¥8,900; came with a sake glass and 39 coins and then to top up the 100 coins package later.

January has been a really great month to me. I was on a fun employment month and so I was able to meet up with all my buddies… freely without the need of checking onto the schedule. It was my big birthday month too, and I got the chance to choose the food I want – freely. LOL.

I visited Beato again on my big birthday month; and yep… I have put down this as my annual thing to do! Always love their dry aged steaks and the cosy ambience and services they deliver. The Beato Steakhouse has been around for years, one of the first restaurants in KL to specialize in dry-aged beef; I guess there is no need further introduction about it. Here I compiled both of my visits to The Beato Steakhouse, consecutively for two years.

So first thing first, pick the cuts on the board! Pick whichever grams of the cut you would like from the chalkboard. Friend’s daughter who were with us during the dinner spilled out “that’s a rich man menu” (LOL).
