It was the most delicious and most fun restaurant.
I listened attentively to the owner's explanation of the sashimi platter.
``Usually, I prepare sashimi that is aged for several days to reach its peak condition, but since the weekend was a bad day for fishing, I was only able to prepare the fish I bought today.I apologize for not having fresh fish.''
This is the first time I've heard Sorry for the inconvenience.
A long time ago, I remembered Yuzan Kaibara from Oishinbo (manga) saying the same thing.
Fresh sashimi has a nice texture, but aged sashimi is the most delicious.
I was fascinated by the interesting poop.
I decided to prefer sake to beer, so I quickly switched to sake and got very drunk.
The grilled mackerel radish and squid tempura were also very delicious.
I was so absorbed in eating and drinking that I forgot to take pictures.
I will go again.

This is a famous izakaya located on Sakae 4-chome, but this was my first visit.
I sat at the counter on my second visit.
【order】
■Today's sashimi platter (2 servings)
■Sloppy potato salad
■Pumped tofu
■Kakiage of crushed corn
□Lemon shochu high for adults
Sashimi is aged, so it has a sticky texture and flavor.
The general explained it to me carefully, and I listened intently.
The humble potato salad was delicious with chunky skinned potatoes.
The kakiage of crushed corn has a sweet taste of corn and a crispy texture.
The lemon chuhai (lemon chuhai), which is a little more grown-up, had frozen lemon in it and was good because it wasn't too sweet.
The general's personality was very nice.
Thank you for the meal.
