I visited Norisuke-san’s restaurant for dinner. We had lunch there during their regular business hours, and I had always wanted to visit again at night. It’s great that I finally got the chance to do so.
The interior is designed in a monochrome style, with a calm lighting scheme. Each table is separated by roller shutters, allowing guests to enjoy their time comfortably without worrying about others around them.
The meal began with eggplant and taro fried balls, followed by a dish of pears in white sauce. The lightly crispy batter revealed the eggplant and taro with their savory flavors, making me smile involuntarily. The pears in white sauce have a refreshing pear sweetness and a smooth texture that is very pleasant to eat.
The transparently beautiful sashimi is filled with a rich umami and sweetness that spreads over time after being marinated in kombu. The fish I tasted for the first time, called "Shizu," had soft flesh that complemented the vinegar and citrus flavors perfectly.
In the mouth, it’s a meltingly smooth experience; the crab flavor spreads luxuriously in each bite of these fluffy crab balls. Each dish is so appealing that writing about them would lead to lengthy texts.
Among them, the most impressive was the mullet served in a mignoné style. The surface was fragrantly roasted, and when eaten, white mullet would reveal its creamy texture inside. The sauce with ao-sa aroma complemented it perfectly, making us involuntarily exchange glances.
Delicious seafood is on display, providing a truly satisfying experience. The price was quite reasonable; for a course with two soft drinks, the cost was around 10,000 yen. Since the visit was arranged through reservation, the types of courses offered are not yet known (needs confirmation from the restaurant).
We visited the restaurant on Sunday at 7 PM. There were no prior guests; two additional groups arrived later.

I was really interested in the seafood dajian, so I finally decided to give it a try. After some negotiation with the menu, I chose a green onion tonkatsu and yaki-don.
Lights that shine on the tables like spotlights. The shiny, glittering appearance of the dosa placed beneath them is undoubtedly the star. I try hard to suppress my excitement and listen to the explanation given by the staff. Recently, I've realized that it's quite difficult to listen to an explanation while being presented with delicious food right in front of me. (My mind is too focused on the food, so I often miss important details.) Laugh.
In the cutaway view of the chopsticks, there was an abundance of green onion toro. Honestly, I didn’t expect to see so much of it. Looking at the chopsticks when they were lifted, they appeared to be in a messy state. Once the ingredients popped open, a solid and rich flavor spread out. There was no smell at all. The smooth texture of the green onion toro, along with the moderate sweetness of the fat, made it even more delicious.
The miso soup was also delicious. After drinking it, I couldn't help but look up. The fresh yuba served in small bowls was also very tasty. I really want to try the other dishes as well.
