Near the south west corner of the Imperial gardens is Sumi-yaki Akari, a yakitori restaurant set up for wine lovers. While most yakitori venues feature mostly beer and shochu, here you can enjoy an extensive wine list of mostly European wines, including sparkling. The menu is also geared for towards the wine, including (above) chicken skin and mushroom, sprinkled with parmesan. Below: pickled asparagus and mushrooms. (Located just south of Marutamachi on Teramachi, near Screen hotel)
