👍👍 What can I say about this bar? This bar makes me feel that the best bars are not always listed on the Asia’s top 50 bars.
My wife and I visited this bar 2 days in a row because we love that there is no menu in this bar. We like to be surprised by the friendly bartender Tom-san who served up fantast...

Kyoto Tower SANDO Bar
Bar
🫤 店員さんがずっとおしゃべりに夢中って感じでした。
ビールの注ぎ方も雑で、トレイがビールまみれ･･･一口も飲んでないけど･･･
これが正解かな？って感じでした。
店員さんに当たり外れがあるのですね。残念です。
でも、ポテトサラダはホントに美味しかった！
ビールは他所で頼んでポテトサラダはここで食べるかも。
