Otsuchi City, known as the second-largest city in Tōshirakawa Prefecture...
After a long time, I strolled around the station square during the day. However, due to the characteristic "doughnut effect" of small cities, the station square felt extremely dull and empty.
The relaxed atmosphere was due to the desire for lunch, but there are very few restaurants at the west entrance of the station.
The east entrance of the station is where White Gull University is located, so it seems to be quite bustling there.
There's no other way... I thought I'd eat it in the station building... but there was a sign saying "Lunch".
There is a signboard for the lunch menu at the entrance.
Hmm... It's a bit uncertain, but since I want to focus on fish dishes, let's name it like this!
This building houses a pigeon coop, and I used to frequent it quite often in the past…
It's a very old building, but when you see it during the day, the sense of antiquity becomes even more apparent.
I entered the restaurant just before 12 o’clock, and in the area I could see, there was only one person ahead of me.
Is the lunch service profitable?
I will choose the sashimi set that was decided on from the menu outside.
Arrived in less than 10 minutes!
Well, it's a lunch at a secluded station in a place without the sea. So, if you have to say that there's nothing else to do, then that's just the way it is. But I couldn't taste anything other than the flavor of wasaibia soy sauce...
The night-time operation of this izakaya is probably considered delicious...
However, the area in front of the station is truly desolate.
It was a very lively place, even at the west entrance of Komiyama Station.
Even though it's a phenomenon unique to local cities, there are simply not enough people here.
