Welcome to Kanpai NY's meetup page! Kanpai NY was created as a way for us to explore and share Japanese food, sake, and culture at the best Japanese restaurants and bars in NY. Throughout the year, we organize sake tastings and events at some of our favorite places. We envision our events as a fun and casual way for Japanese food and sake enthusiasts to meet and network in the city. At each event, we'll pick a new location (or visit an old favorite) to enjoy our favorite Japanese food and sake, …

Math is the original liberal art, the first stop on any intellectual journey to understand a little more about the world. It's about trying to answer questions, not because they've been assigned out of some dusty textbook, but because the question itself is interesting and the attempt is more interesting still. It's about learning for the sake of learning, studying for the sake of studying. This group is about math for math's sake. The School of Mathematics was founded to cultivate a natural an …

  Few other cities boast the diverse array of ethnic enclaves and confluence of global cultures that New Yorkers routinely enjoy. And the representation of Japanese culture in New York City is no exception. From the cliché ubiquity of sushi houses to authentic and unique Japanese performing artists on tour, our group enjoys the sides of Japan that are on display in New York. Our events include art exhibits, J-pop concerts, sake tastings, karaoke outings, book readings, lectures, language classe …

This group is for people who want to experience many Asian foods and drinks with a focus on pub style cuisine. There are many Japanese/Asian Culture exchange groups, good ones too so why make another? Well I haven't seen any with the focus I would like on Asian pubs. Mainly basement sake bars and yakitori spots. But Izakaya is an umbrella group description as I have other events planned outside what would be described as an Izakaya. Things like tea & dessert, Korean BBQ, any local Far East event …

… And to weed out those who RSVP for the sake of it, i will soon start charging a non-refundable deposit for an event. If you become a Trip Diva please do not cancel a trip you suggested is not fair to the girls who are expecting you there. If i post a trip and there is nobody to lead it, i will make this clear, some trips you can either go solo or with a friend.  Is advisable that you meet with your potential travel mates before hand, so they know who you are and what you are about. Any trip that …
