I went for the fruity beer which corresponds to Wunder Bier (5% alcohol) and I found it lovely. What’s probably why I ordered 4 in a row. 🙂 I finished the night with a “Light” one which is the Kanda kraft and it was also fresh and tasty. It’s actually important to note that all the craft beers sold in Schmatz restaurants are based on German recipes and they exclusively use German ingredients to make them.

So all I have to say is: enjoy these German beers! #Prost #Kanpai

Schmatz Restaurant Tokyo – The Food

Now, it’s time to eat! And you will find at Schmatz restaurant the most typical german food like the wursts (sausages), schnitzels (slice of meat) etc… But what Schmatz tried to do is serving Japanese inspired German dishes which is actually challenging. But the mix of culture was a success and I really loved the food I tried there.

For your information, my favorite dishes were:

– German Fried Chicken with tartar sauce (with colors of Germany flag on the chicken)

As I said earlier, I went to the Schmatz located in Akasaka and as you can see, the restaurant is not so big so the vibes there were warm and friendly. The staff was also very welcoming and they made us very confortable.

But hey, before to leave this article, have you thought what “Schmatz” actually means? It’s a term in German that describes a sound of happiness. For example, it’s the sound you make when you give a hearty kiss to someone. Pretty original right? 🙂
