I used to frequent this yakitori restaurant in the past, but when I checked on Tabelog, I found out that it had moved. I went with a friend and got lost trying to find the new location near Toranomon Station, but with my friend's help, we finally arrived. The building had changed, but the atmosphere remained the same. The mama and the staff were as lively as ever. It was a nostalgic experience, and we had a great time drinking. I need to revisit with my old friends.

I also went at night. There is no counter, but this shop welcomes solo customers warmly. You can enjoy reasonably priced drinks and snacks, so be careful not to eat and drink too much. The heart-shaped onigiri makes you feel loved. This izakaya is recommended for both solo diners and groups. And for a perfect finish, there is a Jiro-style ramen shop called Bari Otoko just a few seconds away, so why not have a drink at this shop before trying it out?

I moved near a shop run by a Bali guy and had lunch there after a long time! The portion was generous, and you even get a free soft drink. You can also smoke there, so I highly recommend this place. It's a great spot for both lunch and dinner, so why not give it a try?

I also posted photos of the scene of the explosion incident in Shinbashi. For those interested, this week is also in the mood for ginger pork like last week. At the bar Futamata, I avoid it because it has a lot of food and spicy mentaiko, which is the enemy of gout (but I love it) is all-you-can-eat. I was walking towards Toranomon from Naka-dori and saw a sign that I had never seen before, so I decided to check it out. Today, I had a medical appointment during my lunch break, so it's already past 1 o'clock. When I peeked into the store, it seemed like they were still open, so I decided to go in. Many shops in the Shinbashi-Toranomon area close before noon, so it was fortunate. I remember it used to be a bento shop for Suishin and then a restaurant. It seems like the shop has changed. There is something like a menu in front of the store, but it doesn't look much like a lunch menu. When I entered, I was greeted by a spirited voice. Both the owner and the two staff members were women. The interior of the store is simple like a motsuyaki restaurant common around Karasumori. I sat at a 4-person table and searched for the menu. I was surprised by the variety of lunch menu options. There must be about 30. I thought there would be motsuyaki, so I found ginger pork and ordered it. The lunch was 950 yen. When I placed my order, they asked me about drinks. There was a separate menu for drinks, like a service. Thinking about the afternoon, I ordered iced coffee. It was served in a glass mug. It looked light in color. It tasted like drip coffee poured over ice. It was quite refreshing and delicious. For lunch, three small side dishes and miso soup were served first. They were placed on a plastic tray, which looked a bit cheap, but when I tried them, they were all homemade. Surprisingly, they were quite well-made. The miso soup was light but flavorful. I thought I would have to serve the rice myself, but they brought it for me. The ginger pork was cooked after the order was placed. When it was ready, they brought it out with a time lag. The meat was not top quality, but it reminded me of eating at a rural aunt's house. It was sweet and savory, and went well with the rice. The small dishes, like slightly spicy tikuwa and mitsuba ohitashi, or curry-flavored bean sprouts, or spaghetti salad, didn't seem pre-made. They were a good match for the rice. If you ask for seconds, they will serve it for you, but I did it myself. When I did, the owner thanked me loudly. It's an interesting place. The female owner might be from Okinawa. The store's layout and the way the food is served may seem cheap, but they are all handmade, so it's not bad at all. When settling the bill, I was encouraged with a loud voice to do my best in the afternoon. With so many menu options, if you're having trouble choosing a restaurant, you might want to give it a try.

First time visiting this restaurant, so I decided to try their lunch. It seemed like a family-run place, but the service was a bit slow - it took 40 minutes for the food to come out. However, when I went back the next evening, they redeemed themselves. The food was delicious, and the service was quite good. The liver skewers were especially amazing. The complimentary drink they gave us at the end was strong, and it really hit me... I will definitely go back for dinner next time.

On June 20, 2023, I had dinner at a restaurant in Nishi-Shinbashi. I got off at Uchisaiwaicho Station on the Toei Line, took exit A3, walked from "Hibiya Street" to "Shinbashi Nakadori Street," and found the restaurant I was looking for, called "At Yakiton." The restaurant relocated and reopened on June 20, 2023, from Toranomon to Nishi-Shinbashi. It is a small place run by three staff members, including the kitchen. I sat at a two-person table in the bustling restaurant and ordered two lemon sours for 540 yen each. I had the following dishes: 1) Mung bean sprouts salad for 330 yen, 2) Salted squid guts for 310 yen, 3) Pig's head for 150 yen, 4) Beef tongue for 150 yen, 5) Liver for 120 yen, 6) Pork with sansho pepper for 480 yen, and 7) Sauce yakisoba with egg for 580 yen plus 300 yen for the egg. The total bill was 3,500 yen. The restaurant was crowded, and the food was delicious.
