〈메모〉
A friend invited me to visit a great restaurant run by someone we know, so I went there.
November 24th. On Tuesday night at 8 p.m., we made a reservation with four people. The restaurant was about 30 to 40% full.
．
・Toyosou: 3種類の前菜が盛られています
The three side dishes were "Plum Crystal", "Crayfish Pickled with Crested Dragonfish", and "Salty Sauce of Squid".
◯ 梅水晶
A unique delicacy that offers a combination of a refreshing plum flavor and the crispy texture of shark cartilage.
It was just the right time to rinse my mouth during the meal, and it was really delicious!
◯ ホタルイカの沖漬け
This restaurant offers two pieces of Butterfly Squid.
It has a cute and soft texture that feels pleasant to the touch. The saltiness is quite strong, making it an excellent choice as an accompaniment to alcohol. It's truly a masterpiece.
This dish particularly complements Japanese sake, making it seem like you could drink one potion at a time!
◯ 盐渍鱼
This is also a masterpiece, just like the butterfly eel, with its delicate texture that truly enhances the taste.
The unique aroma of sea urchins is strongly present, making it a flavor that seems to be favored by drinkers.
Since there is no trace of off-flavors, it is very easy to eat. It’s the perfect choice to enjoy with alcohol—just bite into it quickly!
・梅の香りがする大根サラダ
A salad of shredded radish topped with plum dressing, accompanied by a generous amount of wakame.
This salad features a refreshing taste that is evident throughout. The crisp texture of the radish and the pleasant aroma of sage make this salad truly enjoyable.
The flavor of the plum serves as a wonderful accent, making it a salad that can be paired with Japanese sake. I couldn't stop eating it!
・Today's Sashimi Platter (Top)
The sashimi platter features a luxurious selection of ingredients such as tuna, bonito, salmon, sea scallops, and button shrimp. Each dish is served individually.
All the sashimi items are of top quality in freshness. At first sight, I was convinced that they were delicious. The charm and appeal are simply unforgettable.
Particularly delicious were the tarako and button shrimp.
Catfish has an extremely high fat content, and the sweetness it offers when placed in the mouth is simply outstanding.
Button shrimp comes with a head, and it also has miso and eggs added to its flavor.
It has a crisp and pleasant texture. Due to its large pieces, it offers a great amount of food, making it extremely satisfying to eat. The umami flavor hits you directly, making this sashimi incredibly delicious!
・Toyosou Oden Selection
このおでんの盛り合わせは、がんもどきや大根、こんにゃくなどが大きな器にたっぷりと盛られて提供されます。
This restaurant also features large cuts of various ingredients, which gives it a truly impressive visual impact.
Oden is cooked for a long time near the entrance of the restaurant, which makes it extremely soft and allowing the umami flavors of the broth to penetrate deeply.
The moment you bite into it, the delicate taste and aroma of the delicious broth spread in your mouth. It’s simply extraordinary.
Undoubtedly, this is a masterpiece that harmonizes perfectly with Japanese sake, and it was extremely delicious!
・豊島屋の名物！鶏のから揚げ
A serving of fried chicken with a plump size, arranged in a quantity of 7 to 8 pieces, presented in a convenient manner.
This fried egg uses thigh meat as its ingredient, making it extremely juicy. The crunchy texture at the moment of biting, along with the sweet taste of the elastic fat, is simply outstanding.
A truly outstanding dish with a strong punching power, perfectly complemented by light and refreshing types of alcohol like highball. It was absolutely delicious when paired together!
・Infinity Clowncakes
As the name suggests, Infinity (無限) comes with an extremely large size, making it a super extra-large koala.
These croquettes have a crispy exterior and a fluffy interior. What's distinctive is their strong sweetness.
When put into the mouth, a delicious sweet taste of sweet potatoes spreads gently, making one want to eat it quickly. It's truly a masterpiece.
In terms of size, it’s extremely large, which means the portion is also outstanding. It was the perfect time to have this dish, as I had a craving for something intense. So, it was absolutely amazing!
・Extremely melt-in-your-mouth appetizing pot of miso soup & oudon
The pot served as the main course of the meal
The "motsubata" features a classic combination of beef, cabbage, bok choy, green onions, garlic, and sliced chili peppers.
The pork was cut into fairly large pieces and cooked. Even after the fat had melted out, it still tasted rich and was quite appetizing to eat.
A crisp texture, the sweet richness of fat spreading in your mouth, and an unparalleled depth of flavor—this restaurant is simply outstanding.
Overall, the pot has a strong garlic flavor, and it leaves a powerful impression. It’s the perfect way to warm up your body during winter months.
Finally, pour in the udon and cook it vigorously.
The udon, eaten alongside the soup that contains plenty of the rich flavors of beef and vegetables, is truly exceptional. It has a taste that is perfect for ending the meal—it was extremely delicious!
・甜蜜
The sweet dish served at the end of the course
The seasonal dessert was "apple sorbet".
This shake retains a hint of apple flesh, offering a crisp texture that is truly enjoyable.
The menu was a rich course arrangement that complemented the alcohol well. In the end, I was able to finish with a sweet taste that left a lingering sense of flavor and the distinct character of Aomori. I was absolutely satisfied!
．
The restaurant is located about 2 to 3 minutes' walk from the east entrance of JR蒲田駅.
From the station, cross the signal and enter the Tabata East Gate Central Street. Proceed straight ahead; the roadside store is located on the right side, after a short distance.
The interior of the restaurant is dimly lit, creating a cozy atmosphere. In such an environment, one's gaze inevitably falls upon the shiny cases of Japanese sake. It’s a space that is truly tempting.
The seating arrangements are as follows: on the first floor, there are 8 counter seats and 2 four-person tables. On the second floor, there are 6 four-person tables and 2 semi-private rooms for six people. On the third floor, there are additional seating options. In total, there are 73 seats available.
The customer base consists of solo travelers, women's groups, and colleagues from the same company. Given that the year is approaching its end, it seems likely that there will be many people using this restaurant for their New Year’s Eve celebrations.
Due to my friend who loves Japanese sake and being at his favorite restaurant, I had a very satisfying drinking experience with both the taste and the quantity of the drinks. It was truly a happy occasion!
It was delicious, thank you for the hospitality (*´◒*`).
