Chiyoda City, Tokyo, Japan｜Ate Nikomi Sakana, Ichigaya

This is an izakaya located in an old private house in Ichigaya. I went there because I was meeting up with a friend from high school for the first time in a while. I think this is a restaurant where you can be satisfied with the atmosphere, food, and alcohol. My recommendation is the sardines boiled in plums. Sardines and pickled plums are both used to make the best sake. This time, I had a friend who doesn't like sake, so I didn't try it, but they do have an all-you-can-drink option (Saturdays only). I think it's a famous restaurant that exudes a nostalgic atmosphere, reminiscent of the izakaya of the good old days. *My only complaint is the lack of variety of soft drinks.

I decided to have dinner with an old friend in Ichigaya, and although I had known about its existence for a while, I had never had the chance to go there, so I finally made it happen this time. On the contrary, I felt strange that there was a shop that looked like an old folk house tucked away in this corner. Most of the customers were a few people like us, but we also saw one female customer. I ordered fish as my main dish, and it was exquisite. The bonito nigiri for appetizer was good, and the seasonal fish and salt-grilled ayu were also good. Personally, I liked the boiled sardines. I don't usually eat sardines boiled, so it was fresh. They also have a lot of sake, and my acquaintances who like alcohol were also happy. The cost is about ¥17,000. It's not in the cheap category, but I thought it was a good deal since I was able to get something decent. If you insist, the restroom is too small. Maybe it can't be helped because it's an old private house. I would like to visit you again. Thank you for the meal!

Something good happened in Ichigaya, and he drank up Kamikigen alone in a good mood. There were no customers after 17:00, right after the store opened, and I talked about my struggles to the manager from Gunma. The food is well seasoned and satisfying. I want to go drinking again in a good mood.
