Nerima City, Tokyo, Japan｜Nogata

“Folk art style” izakayas are becoming rare these days. Visited on the recommendation of a senior from Nikkei. When I entered, I felt that it was ``old Showa'', but when I left, I felt like ``I regained something I had forgotten''. Start with Akahoshi. This is placed ◎. The photo shows raccoon tofu and yakitori. The former isn't cheap considering the cost, but it's not bad because it's large and full of handmade feeling that chain izakaya doesn't have. The yakitori is a masterpiece with a slightly sweet sauce that makes you feel the history, and the meat quality is also 〇. 100 yen per bottle is a great value. Accounting is all tax-inclusive, simple and clear accounting with no appetizer or table charge. This is where the sincerity of the business comes out, which is probably why it has lasted so long. I visited on Saturday evening, but the customer base is calm and not noisy. The menu is extensive and there are many things I would like to try, so if you pass by, you will likely come back again.

The daily sashimi is delicious. In addition, there are diapers, ginger grilled food, jaga cheese, etc. Even though it is known as a mingei izakaya, the menu items are very basic. They don't have frozen items like chain stores do. Best of all, the alcohol is cheap, so it's a great place to visit in Ueto.

Nogata, a long-established store in Ekoda Here, you can enjoy seasonal fresh fish, delicious dishes, and Japanese sake selected by the owner. There is a standard menu on the wall and the specials of the day only on the blackboard. You can enjoy dishes made with seasonal ingredients. You can't see the inside very well from the outside. At first there is an atmosphere that is difficult to enter when you take a step A cheerful proprietress welcomes you warmly. I personally recommend the yakitori, and for 80 yen excluding tax, you can taste the meat, gizzards, liver, and squid. In the winter, hot pot starts, and the store becomes even busier. If you want to go, it is recommended to go early on weekdays from Monday to Thursday. Unlike weekends, this time is not crowded, so you can enjoy cooking and drinking slowly. There are no soft drinks, but you can order oolong tea and green tea.
