Shizuoka, Japan｜桜えび茶屋

The food was delicious and the perfect way to escape a rainy day! The chef is able to speak some English and the staff was very patient while I translated for my friends. This restaurant specializes in cherry/sakura shrimp; a local specialty. They even were able to make a special vegetarian dish for my friend. I would highly recommend enjoying a meal at this lovely restaurant located close to the Tokaido Hiroshige Woodblock Print Art Museum.

The course meal of sakura shrimp is irresistible.

After waiting for more than an hour after walking around the store, I was the last customer. I was surprised that Masayuki was able to make a cup of sake, but the dry one was the best. Raw Sakura-e is a terrible appetizer to go with alcohol alone, and the Sakura-ebi kakiage was crispy and full of shrimp, making it an amazing appetizer as well. After getting comfortably drunk, I was completely satisfied with the soba noodles. The number of parking lots and the number of seats do not match at all, so please come up with a clever idea to increase the number of seats.
