First time in Tokyo and trying to go to Sushi Dai in Toyosu early morning to get a decent spot in line, then hit up Teamlabs Planets and a brief visit to Odaiba since I’ll be in the area. Does this plan make any sense? Or should Teamlabs be scheduled at a different time?
5am: arrive at Sushi Dai, try to grab a time slot around 11:30am (can’t find info on if they let you choose a later time slot or if you’re forced to go in order of your spot in line… from my reading, it seems like if you arrived super early Iike by 4am and were within the first 12 people, you could be seated to eat at 7am but later groups would obviously have later seating times, but could you also go early and ask to come back at a later time??)
5:45-6:15: try to view tuna auction
6:30-8:45: explore Toyosu market or if there’s not much to see, go (by bus?) to tsukiji outer market to check out the vibes (open to recs for both, prob won’t need to eat a bunch but open to small food/snack things or whatever is cool to see)
9-11: teamlabs planets reservation
11:30 or later?: sushi dai seating
12:45-whenever: Odaiba (open to recs here!)
Willing to get up relatively early to get to Sushi Dai since I’ll be taking advantage of jet lag (this is day 2 of the trip), but not sure I want to be waiting as early as 4am since I don’t really want to be eating omakase as early as 7/8am. So mainly trying to figure out if this plan makes any sense or if it’s too risky to try to squeeze teamlabs in especially since it’s a timed entry thing. Would it be better to make a teamlabs reservation later, like 11 and try to eat at Sushi Dai right before? Just trying to be efficient and not spend way too much time around Toyosu since we only have 3.5 days in Tokyo. Also, anyone know if teamlabs is super strict on entry times, like can you still go if you’re late but the reservation was for that same day?
Any pro tips welcome! Thanks!
