Iida, Nagano, Japan｜すゞめ食堂

The Showa era atmosphere is very comfortable. It's a small shop with 3 tables and 4 chairs each, but I think it's a bit small. It was run by a kind grandmother and her attentive daughter. The rice was very delicious, and of course the food was also delicious.

There are 2 4-seat tables and 1 2-seat table, so you can relax and enjoy your meal without feeling overwhelmed. I came here on a business trip, so I wanted to try something unusual, so I ordered the "Tonchan Teishoku". The texture and flavor of the pork offal goes well with the sweetness of the cabbage, and the rice goes well with it, so I replaced the rice. The kitchen is shared with the izakaya next door, so it takes a while for the food to come out, but the food is so delicious that you can just be charming.

Izakaya in the Showa Era: Oden is always available year-round, and I love the oden here. Mama is also friendly and you can enjoy drinking even if you go alone.
