On this month’s cover is the rooftop bar Dreieck Park, an ideal place to enjoy a refreshing drink al fresco before the rainy season. Fukuoka City welcomes the G20 YEA Summit to town and with them in mind we’ve chosen Yakitori Inada as our restaurant pick, then out of the way but worth it, Fukuchan Ramen as our noodle shop, Torihana, an oyakodon specialty diner, and Hanagen for a variety of soba dishes. Whiskey connoisseurs, we are in awe at Bar Kitchen with its 3,000 types of liquor! Equally impressive and very instagrammable is Oishikoriya, where the most gorgeous kakigori (shaved ice) desserts are served. In this month’s Itoshima Now we take you to Itoshima Togeitaiken where you can make your own porcelain. Or for a bohemian vibe, veggie curries and pita sandwiches, check out Lion Kitchen One Love. Finally, Maruta Katsugyo is a must for super fresh seafood! Oh, don’t miss our guide to Hakata Dontaku too! We’ve got all the dates and times you need to enjoy the festival.
