Guia started our Kyoto food tour in a small teppanayaki-style restaurant, the kind with a hot griddle in the middle of each table. Among the items she ordered for the four of us to try was yakisoba, a delicious noodle dish that I couldn’t stop eating. Luckily Guia knew exactly how to make it and wrote the recipe for it in my phone. From there we went on to the Nishiki Market where we sampled a lot of food from an unending number of stalls. One of the next best stops was to briefly sit at a counter to be served the famous Wagyu beef. Yum. Guia never rushed us through the market and was so patient as we quizzed her about all the packages of food that were new to us and written in Japanese. Having grown up in the Philippines , she is a native English speaker, always a welcome help.
We thoroughly enjoyed our tasting tour with Eiji. He was friendly, informative and accommodating to the fussy needs of our teenager. He also took loads of fantastic photos for us. I highly recommend booking a tour with Eiji, you won't be disappointed.
We had the best time with Alejandro visiting some great Tokyo Izakayas. These are places you would never find on your own and feel uniquely " Tokyo". Alejandro was a fun host, has a great knowledge of Tokyo culture and is very entertaining. Well worth it. Would highly recommend.
Sena took us on a wonderful tour and we experienced many foods that we were not familiar with and visited places we never would have found on our own. She gave us lots of options along the way. She has a warm personality and we highly recommend her.
