The Bellwood

Went here because of a recommendation from a bartender in Hiroshima (unfortunately the bartender in Tokyo did not hear of the bar in Hiroshima, Bar Alegre).

They serve omakase with a reservation. Would definitely be down to try in the future.

First, they started off mentioning their menu (which is a book) has six “courses”. First thought I had to participate in each one, but did not.

Second, they pair everything with something to eat! Incredible.

First drink was called “Rob is in Town!”. (Ingredients are below, but basically a twist to a Rob Roy).

Second drink was a twist of a Sazerac (mango sorbet, absinthe, sweet wine, smoky whisky). Also look at the shape of this ice cube. It’s an octagon! And it has an actual mango sorbet on top of it.
