Okay, here’s a behind-the-scenes look at our crypto swag drip 👀

Just Emily Things

I wanted to plop down a few restaurants I really enjoyed last time I was in Tokyo:

  • Tsujiki market – not a restaurant, and kind of a generic must-do in Tokyo, but HOLY MOLY get a chirashi bowl

  • Suzukien – the richest, most matcha-iest matcha ice cream ever

Okay. Sorry. My list is short. My last trip to Tokyo was a long time ago.

ANYWAYS.

That’s the end of this blog. I hope you found it helpful. See you at ETHGlobal Tokyo! And, remember…
