good beer

I drank good ale beer a few weeks ago.

Lunch at Tamahchi ,Tokyo

A few days ago I went to Japanese food restaurant to eat lunch.

I chose boiled red sea bream head with soy sauce (and sugar).
Red sea bream is called TAI(鯛) in Japanese.

My favorite fish is red sea bream.
Even if it is cooked by any way, I like it.
Rare, boild, grilled, all nice.

I took the photograph of the lunch plate that I had chosen.
It is 950JPY(=10$).
Including rice & japanese style soup fee (eat free).
I was very satisfied with this lunch.
Because good volume and taste was strong and delicious.
Boild fishes with soy sauce is Japanese soul food.

Ramen dinner in Gotanda

Last week Friday night , I went to Gotanda to eat dinner with my friend.
Gotanda is one of a business and residential town in Yamanote line of Tokyo.

This time , we ate Tonkotsu Ramen at Hakata Ippudo.
The origin of Tonkotsu Ramen is Fukuoka prefecture.
I was born in Fukuoka. I like Tonkotsu Ramen.
(Fukuoka is a part of Kyushu.
Kyushu is an island in the west of Japan. )

You can see the detail of Ramen.

Ippudo is famous Ramen franchise shop.
Ippudo's Tonkotsu Ramen is normal and basic taste.

I think...
When you come to Japan, If you were interested in Tonkotsu Ramen ,
then go to Ippudo is not bad choice.

It was simple but good Ramen dinner night.

Tokyo bar night at Jiyugaoka

Jiyugaoka is one of the famous town in middle west of Tokyo.
It's a very nice town for living.
There are good shopping area and nice food shops, good traffic location,
and safety.
Not a few foreign people are living in this area.

My house is near Jiyugaoka.
(about 2km=1.2miles from Jiyugaoka)
So I go to Jiyugaoka at weekend often.

Last week Saturday night I went to one of Irish pub/bar at Jiyugaoka.
In that bar, the 6th anniversary party was held.
Many people were there.

Then, about 10～25％ people were foreign people.
I talked with American, Dutch, Brazilian and English people.

Usually , that bar is normal Irish pub/bar.
But sometimes, weekend,  Irish music band or dance music DJ playing.

The bar staff and drinking people are always nice.
It was a nice night.
So I had drink too much.

Complex weather of Tokyo

                             
Recently, Tokyo has complex weather.
Today and yesterday was good and warm weather.
If you are the person sensitive to heat,
only wearing T-shirts is ok.

But 2days ago, it was so cold and rainy day.
When I went to chiropractic and body massage place ,
I was wearing a dawnjacket.
I felt, The season returned to winter. (of course not.)

A cold day and a warm day come alternately.
I had never experienced such a changeable weather in April.

In Japan,This April weather is very curious.


postscript 4/15
According to internet news, todays Tokyo is colder than Moscow.

Spring has come

                                                    
In Japan, cherry blossoms(sakura) are blooming now.
Tokyo too.

Japanese people loves cherry blossoms.
When we seeing cherry blossoms,
we can feel spring season very much.

When the season of cherry blossoms,
many people go to watchcherry blossoms
at park,castle place,riverside.


We call it HANAMI.
(In Japanese, [HANA] means flower ,[MI] means watching or seeing )


When Hanami, you can drink sake,beer,
or other alcohol you want,under the cherry blossom trees.

It is not general to drink at daytime in Japan.
But, in Hanami situation we can drink outside at daytime or nighttime
and we like it.
