We had been on our feet for almost four hours walking the 'Culinary Street' of Tokyo and apart from a mug of coffee in the morning, we had not had any food the whole day yet! So we decided to hop back on to the train and headed back to Shinjuku as upon our enquiries, there were no restaurant along the 'Culinary Street'.
As it was only about 530 pm, and most restaurants were not yet open for dinner, we decided to go into the Shinjuku Beer Hall, a 6-storey block consisting of many pub-cum-restaurants which were already filling up with their 'happy hours' customers.
Pakdokter settled for a plate of garlic pilaf rice and beef steak while pakdokter's partner chose the set of beef burger that was served with a bowl of rice. Pakdokter has grown to like the 'black yebisu' and settled for a pint of that malt beer. It cost 800 yen for a pint ( about RM30) and this compared quite well with the price of a pint of Kilkenny or Guiness in KL which would cost about RM 26 during our 'happy hours'. Each of our dinner meals costs about 1000-1200 yen ( about RM 40) which would be what the main course in KL restaurants would cost also.
