THIS is Tokyo’s “Brooklyn” — A Hidden Gem Near Asakusa!

🌸Japan’s favorite season is almost here — So, for a LIMITED TIME ONLY book any restaurant or experience for your chance to win! https://bit.ly/43MZAo2

Eclectic, modern, and trendy, Tokyo’s Kuramae area is often likened to New York’s Brooklyn! But why?

Within walking distance from the bustling tourist hotspot of Asakusa, and with pristine views of the Sumida River and the Tokyo SkyTree, this is a great place to go for a stroll or to spend an afternoon cafe hopping. Known for its mix of being both a more old-school Tokyo neighborhood with budding, sleek modernity, Kuramae is an emerging area of Tokyo well worth exploring. Join Steph as she explores three of Kuramae’s must-visit spots!

  1. Are you a big Youtube star yet? Not with that stupid hair colour..Aren't you a little old for that colour..Go back to your day job and get your head out of the clouds..You look ridiculous!

  2. Gentrified hipster area popping with cafes and shops. Loving you channel for showcasing Japanese food. The Japanese attention to detail can be seen in their deserts including the earl grey tiramisu, so delish❤

  3. Earl Grey is my favorite tea, tiramisu is my favorite Italian dessert and Cannele is my favorite French pastry! Definitely adding this to my list when I visit in October! Thank you! 😊

  4. So nice a new Host ,where are you from?Canada? A Good Caramelizer for me thank you🙏 what is your name?

  5. I adore that cafe. Though its location might be slightly out of the way. The donuts and coffee selection are incredibly plentiful and delicious. The interior is both modern and chic, making it a must-visit when you're in the neighborhood.

  6. Every place you ate at looked so yummy Stephanie! I really liked the Dandelion Chocolate a lot. Thanks for the video Stephanie! By the way, your new hair color looks cool!

  7. Oh awesome these are all off the Tsukuba Express line which I take to go to Tokyo. I see it all the time but never knew what was there. I’ll have to stop by during spring break. Thank you.
