Three minutes from Ikebukuro Station, our 45-minute “Takoyaki & Sake Pairing Experience” blends two icons of Japanese food in one sitting. From an arm’s length you watch a chef flip batter and octopus on a hot steel pan, forming balls that stay crispy outside, molten inside. Then arrive two pieces each of four flavours—sea-salt, sauce mayo, teritama and spicy menta. Every bite pairs with a sake—Dassai 45, Hakkaisan 55, Kubota Senju, Otokoyama—kept at 7–10 °C. A bilingual chart guides first-time drinkers, and staff help capture photo-worthy angles. Edamame and potato salad refresh the palate; a mini beefy niku-udon seals the finish. Takoyaki is more than street food: across Japan it stars at casual home parties called “tako-pa,” and this session lets you join that fun without the clean-up. Limited to six seats, fully indoors, rain-proof, and only US $19.99, it slots neatly between sightseeing or before a night out, delivering maximum taste for minimum time and money.
