ひとり飲み日和
The restaurant "Gozourokufu Kyu" has several branches in Sangenjaya, and I have visited a few of them. Each branch has a different concept, but they all have a wide selection of my favorite shochu, making it a series of restaurants that I really love. Among them, "Gozourokufu Kyu" stands out with its retro atmosphere, adorned with many posters on the walls, giving it a cozy izakaya vibe unique to Sangenjaya. Their specialty is motsu sashimi, which pairs perfectly with shochu! I flew to this place just for that combination. In conclusion, motsu sashimi with shochu is a winning combination! The carefully prepared sashimi and the variety of shochu were so amazing that I felt like I could keep coming back forever.
I was worried about eating too much motsu sashimi alone and feeling sick, so I only had liver sashimi, but it was so delicious that I definitely want to try the assorted motsu sashimi next time. It was incredibly tender and had no unpleasant smell, a truly impressive taste. The strong-flavored shochu also complemented it perfectly. They also offer a wide selection of yakitori, which I tried a few but somehow forgot to take photos of. The salt seasoning brought out the natural flavors of the ingredients, with a slightly richer taste that paired excellently with alcohol. It took a bit of time for the dishes to come out, but they were cooked delicately and were incredibly delicious.
The rest of the menu also had a lineup that would appeal to alcohol enthusiasts, and I was overwhelmed by the variety of dishes I wanted to try. The entrance has a counter, with a raised seating area at the back, and the main tables are on the second floor, making it a recommended spot even for solo diners. Despite its eclectic retro atmosphere typical of Sangenjaya, the restaurant serves meticulously crafted dishes that are sure to delight alcohol enthusiasts. I'm already looking forward to where I'll be drinking alone tomorrow!
