Oiso - Ebiya


I went to "Ebiya - Oiso Cafeteria" (大磯大衆食堂 えびや)in Oiso for lunch. The restaurant genre is mainly Japanese foods. There are various dishes such as soba, udon, tempura, sushi, sashimi and set meals. I was surprised that there was ramen even though it was a Japanese food restaurant. This restaurant's recommended food is seafood dishes. The restaurant atmosphere feels relaxed due to the old fashioned retro feeling. This restaurant is located along Route 1 and there is a parking lot, so it is recommended to go by car.
I ordered “Mini Shirasu Kakiage Soba”. When I saw this dish, I was amazed at the mini-sized kakiage. The kakiage was so big, crispy and juicy. The soba is cold and refreshing, so it's easy to eat. The price is 990 yen and it is a reasonable dish on the menu. I was very full because this dish includes both mixed vegetable and shirasu kakiage bowls and soba. In particular, it is very delicious if I eat this kakiage bowl with soba soup. There is also local sake here, so it's recommended that you drink take you time. If you visit Oiso town, please go to “Ebiya” to eat.

Yokosuka - Marine & Farm

I went to "MARINE & FARM" in Sajima, Yokosuka. This restaurant is an Italian restaurant, and is popular for its Italian dishes and course dishes that use seafood and local vegetables. The restaurant has terrace seating on the sea, and the atmosphere in the restaurant is casual and cozy. This restaurant's menu prices are relatively high. This restaurant is crowded as it is popular. Therefore, it is recommended that you take a ticket at the ticketing machine in the restaurant and wait. I recommend that you take a bus or car to get here. There is also a parking lot.

I went to eat at lunch time with my friend, so I chose a dish from the lunch menu. This lunch menu comes with "Miura vegetable green salad of Aoki Farm" and "Fokacha of Ashina bakery" in the set. We shared and ate “today's pasta” and “original vegetable pizza”. The pasta was a light salt taste shellfish pasta. This pasta set price is 2000 yen. Also, the pizza had a margherita-style taste with octopus and vegetables. This pizza set price is 1950 yen. I was full after sharing these and ate. They were delicious and really filling. I can enjoy Italian cuisine. Besides, this restaurant has different menus at morning time, cafe time and dinner time respectively. I recommend the Sajima Grill Burger, which is only offered at cafe time, but it is limited in number and it ends as soon as it sold out. It is a fashionable restaurant by the sea, so please go with friends or as a couple.

Shinjuku Gyoen - Cocochiyo Cafe

I went to "Cocochiyo Cafe" on May 1st. The era name became Reiwa from this day. I had lunch at this cafe after a job hunting interview exam. This cafe is a creme brulee specialty cafe and  pudding is also popular. Both are available for take out. The atmosphere is fashionable with a retro feel of bricks. I could check the menu before eating, because there are many signboards in front of the cafe. This place is near Shinjuku Gyoenmae Station, so it is easy to set there.

I was hungry, so I ordered the special lunch. I can choose this lunch myself from the menu that was decided. First, I chose mini green salad or consomme soup. Then I choose one of the four main dishes. Finally, I can choose creme brulee or today's dessert, and chose a drink. The menu I chose was a mini green salad, soft egg with hayashi rice, and today's dessert and ice tea. This special lunch is 1000 yen in all. This is a very reasonable price and it can be very satisfying. This Hayashi rice has fluffy eggs and the Hayashi rice sauce has a strong taste and is very delicious. When I finished eating this, the waiter offered me today's dessert and ice tea. I can also choose ice tea or milk or lemon, and also add syrup if I like. Today's dessert is this cafe's popular cafe au lait creme brulee. The bittersweet caramel and cafe au lait cream is exquisite, so this dessert is really delicious. Besides this lunch menu, you can also easily eat and drink. The price is reasonable and there are many types of drinks. The atmosphere in the cafe is calm and it is a recommended cafe where many customers come from young people to the elderly. Please go to this cafe if you are interested.

Brown Sugar Tapioca & Cherry Blossoms


THE ALLEY - IN NAKAMEGURO

I'd  like to introduce "THE ALLEY". THE ALLEY is a cafe that is famous for its brown sugar tapioca milk tea. Besides, there are various sandwiches and muffins. This cafe is characterized by the deer mark. Currently, there are only 21 cafes in Japan. Many of the shops are in Tokyo. This cafe also has stores in other countries. In Japan, tapioca milk tea is popular and booming for young people, so the cafes are always crowded and people are lined up.


This time, I went to THE ALLEY Nakameguro Shop. The drink menu has various teas, and there are M size and L size for drink size but there is no S size. The drink price is about 400 yen to 700 yen. I ordered Brown Sugar Tapioca Latte and Brown Sugar Tapioca Matcha Latte. It took about 10 to 15 minutes to buy one. This is only M size, and the price is 650 yen. The Nakameguro shop has some small tables, but inside the shop is very small. This cafe is usually full of customers.
I ordered the drink to go so I could drink along the Meguro River. Cherry blossoms are in full bloom along the Meguro River in March and April. The cherry blossoms are beautiful, especially the night cherry blossoms are very beautiful and attractive. I looked at cherry blossoms while drinking the tapioca. Brown Sugar Tapioca Latte was very sweet and Tapioca was chewy. It was very delicious. It is highly recommended for people who love tapioca and love sweet things. Brown Sugar Tapioca Matcha Latte also has a strong taste of Matcha, so it is recommended for people who like Matcha. However, I don't recommend it to people who don't like really sweet drinks.
