Nagahama, Shiga, Japan｜Robata and Sake Uomaru Nagahama

Came here because of the recommendation of the homestay manager. The food and atmosphere of the nostalgic izakaya in the old town are very good, and the clerks are warm, kind and lovely. The taste is generally too salty for us, but it is just right with beer. Today's dinner not only satisfies the stomach, but also a great cultural experience❤️

Many of the restaurants in front of Nagahama Station are izakaya-style, but I think this one is by far the best in terms of delicious food and service. It can be used in a wide range of situations, from drinking alone at the counter to banquets for large groups in the tatami room on the second floor. As the name suggests, the main focus is "robata and sake." The restaurant's most recommended dish, ``Straw-grilled Bonito,'' paired with Nagahama's wide selection of local sake, is the perfect combination. In addition to local sake, there is also a wide variety of sake ordered from all over the country as part of the ``Today's Sake Menu,'' which changes depending on the time of year and the manager's choice. The food menu is also wide-ranging. The "Today's Recommendations" menu seems to change almost every day. With a wide variety of seasonal fish, obanzai menus that use them, seasonal snacks, and more, you'll be able to discover new deliciousness every time you visit. There were many menu items that children would enjoy (deep-fried chicken, french fries, shrimp with mayo, etc.). However, there are very few dishes made with local ingredients. I don't think there are many such things in Nagahama itself. If you want to try Nagahama's famous cuisine, this is the place to go. It looked like a store built by renovating an old folk house, and it had a warm atmosphere. Personally, I find it very relaxing. However, as others have written, the washroom is only on the second floor. . It may be unavoidable due to the structure, but if you get drunk, it will be a hassle to go there. lol In any case, I highly recommend it to those who want to have fun and delicious drinks at an izakaya. I recommend this store rather than going to the national chain stores that I hear so much about.

Uomaru-san is the shop I was most looking forward to today. In fact, it's the same company as Mr. Uomaru in front of Minami Kusatsu Station, where he often goes drinking with his friends...◎ I went there with high expectations. ・Fresh sashimi delivered directly from bluefin tuna (¥1078) →When he was brought in, he said, "Buatsu!" This thickness is irresistibly delicious. ・1 pork offal skewer with miso sauce (¥140) → I'm not good at hormones, so my dad will enjoy it. ・Grilled rice ball with homemade meat miso (¥280) →Lately, my son eats meat miso boom◎ It seems to be homemade meat miso, and I got a bite, but it tasted good with sake. ・Goboten Meat Udon (¥680) → Udon noodles topped with my favorite burdock tempura from the Uomaru menu. The beef is simmered in a salty-sweet sauce, and the soup stock is succulent. It's delicious! ・Prosciutto wrapped with fruit and cheese (¥480) →Because of the season, Amaou was included. The combination of Amaou, cream cheese and salty prosciutto is the best. ・French fries with kabayaki sauce (¥480) →Honma also has sansho (?), but since he has children, it comes with ketchup. I was surprised that kabayaki sauce and french fries go so well together. ・Sea urchin ball (¥480) →The soft-boiled boiled egg becomes tempura as it is, and the sea urchin is on top! I opened my mouth elegantly and ate it in one bite. ・Noble's midnight snack (¥2000) →Who came up with this name, genius! lol You may not be able to tell from the picture, but the amount of sea urchin is huge! What's more, it's a bargain at 2,000 yen to put so much sea urchin from Hokkaido! It's only for a limited time and it's probably over already, but even if I remember it now, I still want to eat it. ・Legendary shrimp mayonnaise (¥280)×2 → The mayo sauce is so delicious it makes me laugh. ・Tempura camembert sweet chili (¥280) →It is shocking that camembert and sweet chili go so well together. Sweet chili can also be used as a drink. ・Premium Malt's (¥480) → It just happens to be delicious. ・Kaku Highball (¥380) → Papa, today's first cup. The first cup is from the highball... ・Peach juice (¥480) → My son ordered a juice that was more expensive than his dad's drink. lol Rich and amazing! The mouthfeel is already surpassed! After this, I started a sake festival with my dad, Already, I was talking to my child, and I quickly yelled at my dad's order, and I don't know what I drank... Not only the grand menu, but also the newly arrived sake menu, I wonder if I can drink something different every time I go ... ♡ If you go to Nagahama again, let's go! !
