And that’s just the tip o’ the liquid nitrogen, flash-frozen iceberg at the Codename:Mixology bar! Because although no snozzberries were detected on the menu, this place definitely delivers the Willy Wonka of cocktails.
One of the things I especially like about this bar is that most of the cocktails don’t knock you under the table, so you can try (or share) more than one. They’re pretty pricey (¥1500-¥1800) but if you consider that the experience includes the entertainment of watching it made plus the pleasure of sitting in a really nice place drinking something you couldn’t get anywhere else in the world, it actually seems like kind of a bargain…

Only In Japan 
I’m…uh…speechless. The salad sounds good, though. Much less chewing work.
And so nutritious. (snort!)
say no more: smoke-filled skull? I’m here, I’d love to try the bamboo leaf … maybe the grilled miso and chocolate martini too.
Go with a few people, if you can! It’s kind of like Chinese food: when there are more people, you can order a lot of things and share! ^^;;
Yes but this year I’m staying at my friend in Tokyo and she’s not really into bars. She works a lot so I think at night we’ll have a cozy evening at home. During the day I’m with a group and it’s their first time in Japan, they want to see the main sights and IF POSSIBLE they want to DINE at places IN THE GUIDE!!! so places a bit different will have to be negociated or I’ll just take time for myself and do the crazy stuff.
OMG, one of each please… starting with the chocolate martini………..
I simply cannot wait to get to this crazy town.. 🙂
You’ve got to try them! Although you know what’s strange? They were all delicious, but the ones that we ordered just to say we did (because they were made from really strange ingredients) were by far the best. I didn’t expect to love the tom yum soup one, but it was fantastic. And there was another one that was made from grated apple and foie gras vodka with black pepper on top that was my absolute favorite.
