Our Metropolis Autumn Issue 2023 is out now and the theme is Flavors! Undeniably one of the best cities for dining, we let our writers loose in the capital to search for the newest dining hotspots and latest gastronomic events.

Learn the art of crafting dried persimmons, a cherished autumn tradition in Japan, and savor miso soup from all 47 prefectures under one roof in Roppongi. Live a day in the life of foodie influencer Niki Micklem, unearth the history of wasabi in Tokyo’s Tama area and get inspiration for a host of the city’s newest and most vibrant restaurants to try.

Our pages are a feast of stories, capturing the sweet spot between food, culture and connection. Join us in celebrating the pleasures of the season, exploring the symphony of flavors that autumn brings. Welcome to a taste of Tokyo’s autumnal magic. Read this issue’s stories by picking up a magazine copy around Tokyo (locations below) or online.
