If the company is good and adventure is encouraged, then order anything with Natto to try. I've only managed to chomp down the Natto Maki but someday I'll tackle the beast in it's purest form. What is eating Natto like? Imagine if your mouth was Peter Venkman and Slimer flew into your mouth and wouldn't go away. Honestly, it's all a matter of finding away to chew the thing and bracing yourself for the taste. After a few bites, it's NATTO bad after all! *SNORT*
The first time I heard about Shibuya was when they served Japanese hot-dogs @ the taste of Calgary festival. It was an awesome hot dog, served with nori/katsobushi and okonomiyaki sauce. What was odd was that they named it "Jap-a-dog", which led to some the lazy and culturally benign-minded locals (mainly 15-20 drunk douchebags) refering to it as "Japdog" *shakes head*
Since then Shibuya has always been a great late-dinner spot. The service is friendly but I am thankful that it's not as "friendly" as the business next door. My only criticism is that for an izakaya, beer and sake are expensive as SH#$!! Once in a while I order the sweet potato Sh?ch just to jog the palate. Aside from this Shibuya's sushi menu is ok compared to other sushi joints, with a few rolls that have impressed some of my previous companions, but where Shibuya shines is their non-sushi and grill menu. They have a formidable ramen and noodle menu. I love their grilled items and always found a satisfying meal experience by ordering various grilled items and eating it with a bowl of rice.
