Iam Moslem and i love japanesse culture, Is there any HALAL izakaya???

I am visiting Japan soon and am excited to try izakayas! 🍢🍻 Questions: do customers need to pay "tip" or "gratuity" in addition to the food price? Is there tax, and if yes is it already included?

I hope to visit Tokyo next September. I don't eat meat. What would you recommend? Is September a good month to visit?

I'm going to Tokyo in January and my hotel is in Shimbashi. I think izakayas will be difficult for me because I don't eat meat or fish!

I'm planning to visit Huis Ten Bosch in Nagasaki, and I'd love to experience something more local nearby. Do you have any food or places to recommend?
