It's Meihoro, and I'm alone. I planned to visit at least five places, but by the fourth place, it's already almost tomorrow. Why??? I didn't intend to spend so much time at each place, but maybe there were some parts where I took longer than usual. However, the food I had was nothing special, just like always. I drank more than usual though. The reason it took so long was because it took a long time for each dish to come out. By the time I got to the third place, I was already full, so I couldn't understand why I couldn't eat anymore. I felt pathetic. It seems like the fourth place was a struggle to get to. I was wandering, wondering where to go next, and then I saw a store from my notes. I thought it was closed earlier, but it's Friday, so maybe it wasn't open. I decided to try "Izakaya Tonbo." Inside, there was just one lady. I sat at the counter. Since I had sake at the third place, I decided to end with a beer. I ordered "komai" even though I was already full. The lady skillfully grilled it, and it was delicious. The amount of mayonnaise was impressive. Many places give only a little mayonnaise, but this was a generous amount. The service was excellent. I chatted with the lady, had two beers, and started feeling sleepy. So, I decided to go home. It was fun. I don't know if the lady had fun, but I was sorry if I was too loud. I hope she stays healthy and keeps up the good work. Good night. In the end, I visited only four places today. It's not something new. I just can't visit as many places as before. Even though I don't eat a lot at each place, I just can't manage to eat much anymore. Maybe it's because of my age. Anyway, I ended up falling asleep with a toothbrush in my mouth. My battery was completely drained.

I used this place for a second party. The restaurant is small with a counter and two small raised seating areas. There was a showcase with fresh sashimi at the counter, and a lovely mama-san with a smiling face. I felt like eating soba, so I ordered soba and also added octopus sashimi. A few minutes later, the soba arrived with slightly thick noodles, topped with plenty of tempura flakes, and it was delicious and piping hot. The octopus was also big and fresh. It was late at night, but I was full. Thank you for the meal.
