I had the weekly one-coin pasta lunch at the Salon de Miki for the first time in a while. Salon de Miki is a hidden gem that you might not notice at first. Their opening hours are from 2 pm to 10 pm on weekdays, giving it a cozy and adult-like atmosphere. The interior is calm and the place is popular among women who prefer a quiet place to chat or enjoy a drink alone. The pasta of the day was a Japanese-style pasta, "Small Shrimp and Asparagus Japanese-style Pasta," which was just right for a solo female diner but might be a bit small for men or for sharing among multiple people. I would love to visit again for a leisurely drink. Thank you for the meal!

On a regular day at 4 pm, luckily finishing work in the city center, a lazy person who can only think of drinking when their brain is free (not a good habit). However, in society, people are composed of 20% hardworking individuals, 60% average workers, and 20% who do not work at all, following the Pareto Principle. While searching for a place to drink, a stylish restaurant with a signboard catches the eye. Without hesitation, the person enters, feeling slightly embarrassed by the presence of a tipsy old man entering alone. The stylish interior has four counter seats, two tables for four, one window-side table for two, and seven counter seats facing the wall available. The weekly one-coin pasta special of "Asparagus and Sausage Spaghetti Aglio e Olio @500" stands out, but the person refrains as they will eat at home later. Kirin Lager is on discount at 400 yen with a 50 yen reduction at this time, and mixed nuts are ordered as a snack for 350 yen. A refined waiter promptly takes the order and serves the items. The light bitterness of the lager is refreshing, with the temperature just right. Perhaps the pasta should have been ordered after all. The food rating is left blank. After about 30 minutes, the person leaves, thinking of going to another place. Walking towards home, they reflect on the meal. Thank you for the meal. *Need to revisit*

A very quiet and beautiful café along the main street, with a calm atmosphere and lighting. It's my favorite place to relax and enjoy a drink for only 300 yen!

Welcome. ---------- August 2016 ----------The restaurant is located in a building along Odori Park, but it's a bit hidden on the 1st floor without a sign. Once you enter the automatic doors and walk down the hallway, the stylish and modern interior will make you forget about the hustle and bustle of the city. The atmosphere is sophisticated yet very relaxing. The welcoming staff, mostly women, greet you with a refreshing smile. The air conditioning keeps the place cool and comfortable. The restaurant is popular among office workers and ladies looking for a quiet place to enjoy a meal. They offer a variety of dishes that go well with drinks, starting from a reasonable glass of beer for 350 yen. This week's one-coin pasta is the mentaiko cream pasta. The creamy sauce with a hint of mentaiko's salty and spicy flavor coats the chewy pasta perfectly. Sprinkling some Parmesan cheese adds richness to the dish, making you crave for more. It's a great place to spend time alone, quietly sipping on your drink and enjoying the cozy atmosphere. Thank you for the wonderful meal.
