Locating a restaurant in Shinjuku
On a previous visit to Tokyo I ate at a Tengu restaurant in East
Shinjuku. It had excellent food at a good price and I would like to eat there again during a forthcoming visit. However I am having great difficulty in locating either the restaurant or an English language map of the Shinjuku district. The NY Times says "There's another Tengu in East Shinjuku on Yasukuni Dori at 3-20-5 Shinjuku " but my efforts on Google fail to locate this address. I will be staying at the Century Southern Hotel at 2-2-1 Yoyogi, Shibuya and will need to walk from there to the Tengu. If anyone can help with a suitable map or site where I can get English language walking directioins I would be very grateful. Thanks Spencer |

Good luck on finding an English language map... ;-) Last summer we gat around in Japan with my Garmin Colorado and Japanese map. While planning I looked up every site we wanted to see or go to and made waypoints of it. This worked great because we could't read most of the streets signs too. The "Dori's" were in English though. If you use Google Earth and look for Yasukuni you will find a shrine with that name. It's east of Shinjuku Station and north of the Imperial Palace. There are restaurants along the main road south of the Shrine which may be Yasukuni Dori. The Toei-Shinjuku subway Kudan****a and JR-Chuo Ichigaya stations are closeby. Hope this helps a bit.

Google may fail to find that exact address, I haven't tried but if you just do a google on Shinjuku Tokyo and then go to the top of the google result and click on maps you will find a pretty good English map with Japanese characters as well. You may have to "roll the wheel" a bit to see the things of interest to you such as the label for Yasukuni Dori. Once you can see your street replace Shinjuku Tokyo with 3-20-5 Shinjuku and get your result..... "A" may be your place. Good luck, s |
