Anniversary + Driving Tokyo Cruising with your Loved One

The hottest shopping complex with many restaurants, beautiful Zelkova Serrata Avenue, people of different nationalities - Roppongi is known as a trendy area. However, if you step into a back alley, you will see good old Japan. After enjoying driving through the Zelkova Serrata Avenue, you may want to park your car at the Hills and be off to shopping.

BALS TOKYO ROPPONGI by AGITO, located on the 3rd floor of West Walk is a perfect place to look for an anniversary gift. High quality items that are very original and you will see scrupulous selections of buyers are displayed in the shop. A wooden pot with decoration of pretty made flowers and base, classy table ware, and so on...things you can use forever and out of a whim, remember the day that you found it with your loved one.

After shopping, off to the Tokyo heliport. But it will not be just a transfer by car. You will be passing by many landmarks of Tokyo such as Tokyo Tower, Shiba-koen park, and Rainbow Bridge.

There is nothing as seeing the gorgeous jewelry like evening skyline of Tokyo from the air. 15-minute Shinjuku mini helicopter tour provides an amazing view of a carpet of lights which continues until the horizon. If you time it and depart the heliport during the sunset, you will get to see a fantastic sky with a gradation of color - pinkish orange sky in the west and dark blue sky in the east. And a few minutes later, clusters of lit-up buildings appear in the complete darkness. Numerous car lights are creating light of rivers. It will be one of the most luxurious experiences of your life.

According to the pilot, Mr. Ohno, passengers are mostly couples. “One male customer asked me, in the past, to hide a flower bouquet somewhere in the helicopter. So, I did. With an amazing skyline during the flight, he got down on his knees as he gave the flowers to his girlfriend. The lady was crying as she received the flowers...and of course the answer was yes.”

After the exciting helicopter tour, you must be ready for a relaxed dinner. We will navigate you through the city streets to a cozy Italian restaurant.

Reservation is required for dinner at La Bettola da Ochiai. This eating place with the common touch is where you can enjoy casual ambiance and great food for reasonable price. You get to choose an appetizer, a pasta dish and a main dish from over 30 items on the menu for 3,990 (tax included). The prices of each item on the menu remain unchanged since its opening. Food exceeded our expectations. We chose salad with anchovy for appetizer, spaghetti with creamy sea uchin sauce for pasta and “Stewed dish of the day”, sizzling beef cheek meat for the main dish. Fishes and seafood are all fresh from the Tsukiji Fish Market. Then, dessert, which does not come with the course, but we could not resist when we saw flans made of traditional ingredients - milk, eggs, vanilla oil and sugar with bitter sweet caramel sauce on the top. The star chef Mr. Ochiai has been introduced on TV number of times and you may experience a difficulty getting through when you try to make a reservation by phone. But, don’t give up! His dishes will be worth your effort!
