Kokubunji, Tokyo, Japan｜Ashitama

It's a little hard to find because it's on the 1st floor of the building, but if you have the courage to enter, you'll be greeted by friendly staff. There are countertop table seats, but the interior of the store is not particularly conspicuous and has a plain feel. I received a course with Nomiho, but the cost performance is outstanding. It is splendid to cover the minus of location and atmosphere

At a shop not far from the south exit of Kokubunji Station, At first glance, the signboard looks like a cafe, but it is actually an izakaya. The menu has a wide variety of appetizers, salads, meat dishes, fish dishes, dumplings, pasta, and fried rice. The boiled fish in the appetizer was very delicious, so I'm looking forward to it after this. for now, Ham roll with tomato and cream cheese 150 yen order. This is not just the ingredients wrapped in prosciutto, but also olive oil, garlic, and basil, which goes well with alcohol. Next, when I asked for fried bamboo shoots and vermicelli, the amount that came out was quite large. 600 yen is cheap now. The taste was also really good. I was imagining thin vermicelli, but it's thick and slippery. Pork, bamboo shoots, vermicelli, chives, seasoned between Japanese and Chinese. The shopkeeper was also warm and seemed to be a shop loved by regulars. This is a repeat decision.

This is a creative izakaya that is very homely and comfortable. It's run by a bright, kind and caring couple, and the food is truly delicious. The appetizers are also very careful and I secretly look forward to it every time. When it comes to a restaurant that you want to go to again and again, the taste of the food is of course important, but it really makes you realize that the personality, attentiveness, and atmosphere of the staff are also very important.
