The city in the north is still very cold today. People are just waiting for the snow to pass before they can move on. So, on a usual holiday, I waited for the weather to clear up at the trailhead before dawn, but had to cancel the mountain climbing for today. Instead, karaoke time! I decided to have some fun at a local karaoke place. The karaoke place is located in a building directly connected to Hiranishi Station, with 24-hour operation. It is usually crowded with young people, students practicing instruments, and regular customers who are like singing sisters. The building and facilities are old, but they have recently introduced an AI judging feature in the Live Dam Stadium AI. The room was not available this time, but I will try it next time. I checked in at the reception. If it's your first time, they will make you a membership card. Today's order: - All-you-can-drink with alcohol, tax included, 605 yen for 30 minutes x 2 (1 hour) - Camembert cheese fries, tax included, 462 yen. The karaoke place operates in 30-minute increments, and you need to specify the time in advance. If you don't want alcohol, you can use the soft drink bar, and they will ask you if you prefer a hot or cold cup. This time, I decided to sing while drinking, which costs 550 yen for 30 minutes on weekdays. I chose Sapporo Classic beer. The pouring style may vary depending on the staff, but female staff members tend to pour more carefully, so it's lucky when you get a female staff member. This time, it was a young female staff member. What I like is their quick operation. Another karaoke place, "Nyanko no Me," can be slow when it's busy, and you might not know when your order will arrive. For those who prefer to wait for their order before singing, even if it's a bit more expensive, I think this place is better. The Camembert cheese fries arrived quickly after I ordered. They are all from the same company, and my partner always puts them in his lunch, so I don't mind. I ordered another round of beer and enjoyed the Camembert cheese fries as a snack while singing. The Camembert cheese was gooey and the crispy coating was delicious. It was a great accompaniment to beer. I had about 4 glasses of beer, it's a good drinking session. This is Japan's largest karaoke chain, and I have a membership card, so I can enjoy karaoke anywhere in Japan. It's been a while since I sang, and although my score didn't improve much, it was fun to hold the microphone occasionally. Thank you for the meal.
