The Experience

“In Tokyo, everyone’s hungry for something different,” our guide Yuka grinned as she waved her red sign above the crowd outside Shibuya Tsutaya. I remember thinking I’d never find my friend in this sea of umbrellas and neon, but somehow we all gathered up—two vegans (me included), one seafood-lover, and Yuka leading us straight into the heart of Shibuya Crossing. The sound there is like nowhere else: sneakers on wet pavement, snippets of K-pop from shop speakers, someone’s laughter echoing off glass. It was humid enough that my glasses fogged up when we ducked into the first sushi place. Not fancy—just a narrow counter with a view over the scramble below.

The chef didn’t say much but his hands moved fast—he pressed rice and layered thin slices of eggplant and marinated tofu with this tiny brush dipped in sweet soy. I tried to copy his bow when he handed over the vegan nigiri (probably failed). My friend ordered seafood sushi, so nobody missed out. The ginger was sharper than I expected; it made me pause before the next bite. Yuka told us about how Shibuya used to be farmland—hard to picture now with all these lights—and pointed out a photo on the wall from decades ago. There was a moment where everyone just watched the crossing through rain-streaked glass, not talking much.

We wandered deeper after that—past a vending machine selling hot corn soup (I almost bought one just for the novelty) and into an old alley that still smelled faintly like grilled onions even though it was mostly shuttered for the night. The second stop was this tiny okonomiyaki spot where they slid a sizzling pan right onto our table. Vegan okonomiyaki is softer than you’d think; cabbage and yam batter with crunchy bits at the edge. I tried to say “okonomiyaki” properly—Li laughed at my accent, which honestly broke any awkwardness left between us.

The last place wasn’t on any map I’ve seen—a bar up high where you can look down on Shibuya Crossing while sipping plum wine or soda (I went non-alcoholic because jet lag was hitting). The city felt endless from up there, but also kind of small when you’re sharing snacks with strangers who suddenly don’t feel so strange anymore. I still think about that view sometimes when I’m back home in my quiet kitchen—you know?
