My Favorite Nichome (Chichinpui-pui)

The first Nichome bar I ever visited was Chichinpui-pui.
It’s located on the top floor of the Seventh Tenka Building and is very spacious, with plenty of sofa seating, making it perfect for large groups.

The mama is an artist who paints in oil.
One day, I would love for her to paint a picture of me guiding everyone in Nichome with a flag.
I have the impression that many people who paint in oil are very unique, and the mama here is no exception—she’s great at conversation and you can talk to her about anything.
Once, I brought a friend who had just experienced a heartbreak, and we ended up talking for hours.
I’m not good with love, so I just thought, "Wow, that’s amazing."

When I opened the clinic, I really wanted to do something that felt very "Nichome," so I made flyers.
In gay bars, they often distribute flyers for birthdays (celebration events) and parties (anniversary events).
At PRIDE CLINIC, we also distributed flyers to gay bars and had them put them up in the bars and restrooms.
At Chichinpui-pui, they even put the flyer on the restroom door!
Such a prominent spot! It’s right there while you’re in line!
I’m so grateful♡♡

One of the great things about Chichinpui-pui is that beer is included in the all-you-can-drink option.
They offer a variety of beers, so it’s perfect for beer lovers like me.

There’s also a shop girl at Chichinpui-pui who loves Disney.
On her birthday, she dresses up as Minnie Mouse.
One of my best memories is going to Disneyland with everyone.♡

This very spacious bar often turns into a crazy dance floor when we get drunk.
It’s like a club that doubles as a gay bar (laughs). You should definitely check it out.
