Kawasaki, Kanagawa, Japan｜古今 本店

Huge selection of sakes, some quite rare and on limited stock in Japan. Food menu was very considered and prepared with care.

This is a high quality Japanese food and sake restaurant. Japanese food, prepared using carefully selected ingredients and cooking methods that take advantage of the quality of the ingredients, was simple yet luxurious. It's the same with sake, and it seems like the store staff carefully selects sake from breweries that are particular about ingredients, water, and manufacturing methods, and then purchases it in small quantities, so it's fun to taste and compare. It's not a cheap store, but it's an adult store that you'll want to go to with your adult friends.

I was there for lunch, and the set, which included zaru soba and the main fish dish, was simple but fulfilling. The female (and male) service staff were very attentive and attentive, and I realized that the way they serve customers changes the value of the time they spend at the store. I had a fun and delicious time with your kind attention and casual conversation. This is a shop where there are many strong people who come to enjoy a variety of drinks at the counter from daytime on weekdays. Although the cold and tea drinks were delicious enough for me, I was asked about the characteristics of various alcoholic beverages, asked for recommendations that would go well with the food, and was asked to choose from among the many alcoholic beverages available. I listened to the customer's requests and listened to the knowledge of the service provided. Other people's comments also mentioned Mr. Itamae's appearance, but what caught my attention was that there was a young person with long hair who was probably still young. In the future, I would like to see the sense of cleanliness that you would find at a sushi restaurant, but also the pride that comes with standing at a counter that is visible to the customers at a fine restaurant.
