Also in Ikebukuro there is our favorite izakaya call "Toriton". Usually we go to here on Friday after school. They serve yummy food and drinks. Stuffs are really nice and friendly. We hang out here all the time, just chill and drinking, and sometime bring board game and play there. We are having fun so many time in this izakaya!
