Bar Hopping in Japan – Hanging with the Locals at Izakaya 017 Yokaban

As night rolls in and the sun goes down Kagoshima City comes alive with revellers in search of good food, good drink, and good times. The city itself is compact and walkable, and a huge selection of interesting eateries and bars await the adventurous traveller willing to head off the main road and into one of the many side streets. One such side street is Flamingo-dori, a short curved street with bars and restaurants on either side fairly close to the main Tenmonkan shopping district.

This time we chat with Reina, owner of Izakaya 017 Yokaban. Find out about Kagoshima local tipple shochu, how the street pulls together to make sure visitors have an amazing night out, and how to say “kampai” in Kagoshima dialect!
