20.. But it is extremely lax.. meaning.. if your a foreigner.. and like 18.. they'll think your 20.. the law is not very largely enforced.. or so I've heard .. and if your 20.. well then no problem.. lol

I'd say so lol.. being under-age is one thing I've learned not to worry about.. they will serve you.. and being 6'6 couldn't hurt.. lol.. infact, if he doesn't give you a drink, step on him.. lol.. But yeh, you'll be served no problem..

I have never drank before can someone tell me some good drinks of course i want to try sake i always have since i was little but can someone give me some others?

Ewok85 · 22 Jul 2004

If your below the drinking age of where you come from then just take it easy until you find your feet otherwise you know how it works

TimF · 22 Jul 2004

But can you recomend anything, I will prolly ony have one or two because I dont want to be to hammered my first try dont wanna end up drowning in my own vomit that and I will kinda want my wits about me.

But in a club he who can't drink and dance will never get in a womans pants. lol (joking)

Hmmm go for the screwdrivers. Vodka and Orange.

Sake on your first drink out will kill you DEAD. Its too strong. It also doesn't go well with the whole clubbing thing. Its better drunk in an Izakaya.

Oh and avoid clubs/bars which have a 'You must have a drink in your hand to stay here' policy if you haven't drunk before.

King of Tokyo · 22 Jul 2004

Heh.. is their any clubs that have a freebar in Tokyo that you know of ?

Hmm... from what I've seen the majority of the Japanese guys appeared to be a little on the soft side. When in Japan I was amazed that martial arts isn't a really huge thing. I thought that because most martial arts originated in Asia they would be an activity that everyone participates in. Not True. The guys are more interested in western sports and activites.

I guess the same could be said for America. How many cowboys do you know? The Old West is just that, old, and I believe that martial arts probably are viewed in much the same light in Japan as cowboys are here in the US.

Freebar?

Hehe best place to get DRUNK in Japan is a BLDY's restaurant.

What kind of family restaurant offers 500yen all you can drink booze where you mix your own spirits?

jieshi · 23 Jul 2004

okay guys heres some statistics for all of you travelling to Japan and planning to go clubbing

these are from STA travel

There窶冱 no doubt that people travel to 窶枠et close窶 to some of the wonderful inhabitants of this fine earth. The results of the STA Travel Sex Survey don窶冲 leave much to the imagination! Of the 250 travellers (predominantly aged 18窶?9) recently surveyed, more than 90% of them admitted to having an intimate relationship with someone they met travelling. Half the respondents had been with more than one person on their trip, with residents (52%) slightly more popular choices than fellow travellers (48%). A massive 82% said getting lucky was easier overseas and almost 90% practised safe sex. Cold shower anyone?

Club I to I

A "reggae" club in Shinsaibashi, Osaka.

Too damn loud, I prefer Blues bars.

Yep. Married to a Japanese. I don't know about the sweet part, though...

Fagianonano · 23 Jul 2004

wohooo!
I never go clubbing here in Italy, I'm not the kind of guy who love to dance/show off, I love alternative music so you can imagine... And I can get to no more than a lounge bar or a pub.

*BUT*

I will go to clubs in Tokyo this year because I've been told it's a great experience, I'd also love to meet some nice people there (obviously why not girls?).

I have to say I'm too short (1.65 sigh...) and I felt pretty short in Japan last time I got there they're not as short as it's been told!

RASTA MAN!!! WE BE JAMMIN!!!! lol got any other pics of clubs anyone?

reed_us_21 · 23 Aug 2004

What's the ettiquite for taking a Japanese girl out to dinner on a first time date? Is the guy expected to pay? Because I read that it's also common to split the check when dining with friends. Does this apply?

Also what are some decent, not too expensive, restaurants in Roppongi?

jieshi · 23 Aug 2004

im not in to the whole drinking thing. I would rather wait until Im over the age limit. It keeps me safe in the respect that I will be able to think actively and respond to situations. Also my parents have this strange way of finding things out! lol

"Is the guy expected to pay? Because I read that it's also common to split the check when dining with friends. Does this apply?"
everytime i've been out with with native japanese girls, they paid (except for ones living in america -- they probably expect it like everyone else), but that's because they were the initiator.

one thing i know FOR SURE, DON'T ASK IN ADVANCE (the method of payment) BEFORE THE MEAL.
i learned it like everything else (the hard way )

RockLee · 26 Aug 2004

hehe Budd, my ex-gf HATED that hehehe...
yeah man, the hard way can be tough sometimes :-(

budd · 26 Aug 2004

i'm still surprised that they haven't put up a picture in the airport saying "don't let this guy in the country!"
oh well, here's hoping (they still haven't) anyway
