Bar Highlander, Hotel Okura, Akasaka, Tokyo

On the first article, I would like to write about my favourite hotel bar, which a part of the American are very familiar to the location of bar. This bar will open noon.
The glass of windows are large, but the interior is the British motif like British pub. The pub in UK have very small window for cold winter. In the beautiful afternoon, I feel very comfortable with brown beverage and sunshine from the window. In the evening, I am able to relax and enjoy the cocktail and liquor in the classical and formal mood. On the noon time, you will hear the Beatles lines, but on the night, will hear the comfortable noise of people talking.

I had chose the gin and tonic and gimlet on my visit.  The tonic water was come from UK, very sweet one. I have felt the classical texture from the cocktails. The gimlet they served was according to the very classical recipe, shaken gin with lime juice(I think that was Meijiya's lime juice).

After several drinks, I recommend you to go through the lobby of main building to your room. The quiet and tensioned atmosphere is very nice for your nightcap.

When I am starving, I make it a rule to order the Japanese wagu steak sandwich. I will enjoy the luxury and tasty beef, but we cannot enjoy that in London or other city in the world (Except BA burger in the British airways lounge in LHR). Please try it when you visit the bar(lux pub).
