●The innovative guide to “Izakaya” with English translation!
“Sakaba STORY” available now
Today, izakaya is also familiar as an English word. It’s a Japanese casual pub where people enjoy conversations over drinks and food at a low price.
This November we published “Sakaba STORY” (Sakaba has the same meaning as izakaya) as a spin-off of “STORY”, which is our bestselling fashion and lifestyle magazine for women.
This guidebook is the collection of monthly articles in “STOTY” and supervised by a popular essayist Rui Yoshida (@karashi61) called ‘Sakaba Poet’. The articles are about the location or history of an izakaya learnt from its hostess, and her life.
What is special about this guide is that an English translation printed side by side with the Japanese original. The editor strongly hopes that many foreign tourists read it. We have already some good reviews.
Let’s make a plunge into izakaya world with this innovative road map!
E-book is also now in following stores: Apple Newsstand, Amazon Kindle, RAKUTEN Kobo, etc.
