The SG Club: الفيلم

This Tokyo bar has four floors. You're allowed on three.

Take them from the top down. It's the SG Club, in Shibuya.

Its story: the samurai who sailed to America in 1860 came home and opened a bar.

Third floor: Sangai. Eight seats at one counter, and they choose for you.

Cocktail after cocktail, and you taste fruit from farms across Japan.

Book the six o'clock. Then skip a floor.

Second floor: Savor. Cigars, and members only. That's the one you don't get.

Ground floor: Guzzle. Warm, upbeat, and you just walk in.

Have something light. They'll even pour it to go.

Then take the stairs down.

Sip, the basement. Low lamps, leather, an old New York gang club.

And while you drink, someone shines your shoes.

Guzzle upstairs. Sip down here. That's the S and the G.

It's a short walk from Shibuya Station. Book Sangai and Sip ahead.

Four floors. Three are yours. Start at the top.
