We also love how the Japanese capital is also booming with halal food, and you can easily find authentic Japanese cuisine like ramen, yakiniku, Japanese curry and more.
If you’re in the bustling Shibuya district and looking to fill your tummy, here's some good news! There’s a famous fish and chips eatery which is halal-certified in Tokyo. We’re talking about Manhattan Fish Market!
