On Sunday morning, I had breakfast at the hotel. The reason was that there were no breakfast places near the hotel... The restaurant on the first floor called "Kyoto Gin Yuba" served as the breakfast venue. The price was 1,300 yen in advance, and 1,500 yen on the day, which is quite expensive... Compared to yesterday's breakfast, it's equivalent to being able to eat four bowls of kitsune udon. You take a tray at the entrance and pick up various dishes buffet-style. The first thing I saw was "handmade dashi tofu," followed by "lifted yuba," giving a healthy and fresh feeling. Other options included bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs, dried daikon radish, simmered hijiki seaweed, simmered konjac, and salad. Rice and miso soup were also included! I started with the salad as a veggie first. Then I tried the dashi tofu. Despite being dashi tofu, adding condiments and dashi soy sauce gave it a nice flavor. Next, I tried the lifted yuba. Well, it's yuba (laughs). I then had the simmered dishes, bacon, etc., while progressing with the rice. Although this breakfast was a bit pricey considering I got a cheap stay this time, it's nice to indulge in this kind of experience once in a while, don't you think? Thank you for the meal.

I edited videos on my iPhone by watching YouTube, trying out the pre-installed software iMovie, and using PerfectVideo. PerfectVideo is free for up to 30 seconds, but I decided to upgrade to the paid version for 600 yen considering future use. The thumbnail photos still need improvement, but I want to continue improving. I stayed at APA for the first time. It was great to be close to the station (right after coming up the stairs from exit 8 of the Tanimachi Yonchome subway station). Despite it being Golden Week, I was able to stay at the cheapest APA hotel in the area. There was a large communal bath, and dinner at the hotel was affordable and convenient. Osaka's APA Hotel & Resorts.

The mackerel miso stew is delicious. Surprisingly, you can drink protein.

I stayed at the same hotel during a business trip. At the time of my visit, the restaurant had no reviews on Tabelog and no ratings. I made a reservation through the APA Hotel app. I stayed on a Thursday with breakfast included for 10,000 yen including tax. The location is convenient in the city center, and having a large public bath is a plus. The breakfast buffet includes takoyaki and APA President Curry, which sets it apart from other hotels. The APA President Curry has a rich flavor and is quite heavy to have in the morning. It's like Go Go Curry without minced meat. That's all, Osomatsu!
