To go deeper, in a slightly more bohemian direction, stroll less than 10 minutes downhill to the district of Nakameguro. Hip cafes, bistros, boutiques and bars line the cherry tree-fringed canal that runs through the area, and dot the bystreets fanning out from Nakameguro Station. By day, head to Onibus Coffee for a single-origin espresso to-go. For dinner, try Mahakala, which serves first-rate kushikatsu (an Osaka-born dish of deep-fried meat and veg on skewers). At night, head to Cabin, a trendy watering hole with a venerable stash of Japanese whisky, or Solfa, a wonderfully intimate nightclub.
