polaris: nomi ni iko

by ryu45

nomi ni iko means drinking spree, its a filipino pub , cosy and cheap place to drink. its a karaoke bar, with hospitable filipina entertainers, casual dress code will do, some comes with business outfit and some just have their work clothes..in japan drink and drive imposes very big penalty, so never drive when there is indicative alcohol in your blood,.1 million yen in every life that is place in risk which includes the driver..

Karaoke Room signs: Finding a Karaoke Room

by Nichola1

Looks out for the sign with the weird kind of clown face with a mic. The information will have the rate by the half hour usually. There are often a couple of rates shown - usually weekdays until about 7pm, then after 7pm, then Friday and Saturday nights before 7, then after 7. Make sure you say you want `no-mi-hor-dai` (all you can drink). There will often be different plans (like a coca cola only one, a basic alchohol, and another one with beer) - make sure you you get the one you want - if you say the type of drink and ask `Ok?` they will get what you mean.They usually call you when you have 10 minutes left. Just answer and wait for them to talk and then say `arigato`. After 11pm there is usually a `freetime` which is until about 5:30 - it usually works out the same as about 2 - 2 1/2 hours, so it is often the best deal. You can wear whatever you fancy.

Karaoke Room: Karaoke

by Nichola1

Karaoke is different in Japan than at home. Firstly you get a room just for you, but it is also all-you-can-drink. It is cheaper than going to the pub, and you can choose your own songs.
