Inside Soul of Tokyo - A Guide to Exceptional Experiences:

A teahouse secreted away behind a flower shop, a Michelin-starred chef who does things like no one else, a Tokyo streetfood
market, a hidden restaurant in the heart of Shibuya, spending a night on a library bookshelf, drinking the ultimate
cocktail, finding a restaurant whose address we won't tell you, celebrating an 'un-birthday' at an izakaya, going for
'standing sushi', getting a massage in a hammock...

Soul of Tokyo is written by Fany and Amandine Pechiodat, the founders of My Little Paris, the influential newsletter-cum-lifestyle brand. Having scoured the depths of Paris for 10 years to share the city's best-kept secret spots, they now take on another city they love: Tokyo.

The 'Soul of' collection is a new approach to the art of travelling that consists of vagabonding around, chance encounters, and unforgettable experiences. Guides for those who want to unlock the hidden doors of a city, feel out its heartbeat, plumb every last nook and cranny to uncover its soul.

Each guide in the 'Soul of' collection includes:
- the 30 best experiences a city has to offer
- interviews with those who give the city its spirit
- an illustrator and city-native
