Asadachi

朝起

Recommendation by Lemi

Nothing can put you in the mood quite like grilled salamander, snake liquor, and fish sperm—at least, that’s what the owner of Asadachi believes! In Tokyo, Japan, hidden in the backstreets of Shinjuku, a hole-in-the-wall offers round after round of bizarre aphrodisiacs. They serve a feast of pig testicles, frog, and cow heart as well—totally raw! Asadachi, itself, means “morning wood”. Whether it works, we’ll leave for you to decide, but let’s just say they’ve been in this business for 40 years.
