Albatross Gallery & Bar ♥ ♥ ♥

 

It was not my plan to go in any of the tiny bars in Golden Gai. (I was in a hurry to go home and eat my cakes.)

That is, until I saw Albatross.

It had a chandelier hanging outside its door!

And more chandeliers hanging inside the tiny 5-seater bar! Whoa! 
I knew I had to see and experience more of this craziness.

I squeezed my plump body in the almost non-existent space between these
people's backs and the stairs to get to the innermost section of the bar.
I also spied Spiderman.

And look what greeted me, A DISCO BALL!!! This place is nuts!!!

Not that it needed more, but here's another crystal chandelier

 There was too much going on inside this shoebox of a bar it's absurd.
But all of me loved all of it! :P

I had the Cacao Cocktail which was really just Bailey's diluted with milk.
No complaints. It was Japanese milk.

This was my little corner under the stairs

Albatross is also a gallery which explains all the paintings hanging around the place

Couldn't leave without peeking into the second floor

It was also as elaborate as downstairs. I wish I took a photo of the bartender 
with his body piercings, tattoos, and hair that could kill

I needed to use the toilet but it was ridiculously small!
I did not even attempt to go in. I knew I wouldn't fit.

Check out the mini sink above the toilet bowl. Hooray for space-saving tips!
