Tokyo

We don’t need to tell you that Tokyo is the destination for people who travel to eat. But with izakayas around every corner, six-seat soba shops down hidden alleys, pizza and gelato that’s better than what you’ll find in Italy (or Brooklyn), and high-quality sushi even at the convenience stores.…well, it can be hard to know where to look first. That’s where we come in. Our list of must-eats, from Tokyo-obsessed chefs around the world and on-the-ground locals, will give you a starting point (and help you overcome the language barrier). Start here, then spend some time wandering the city, stopping for every onigiri and daifukumochi you see.
