Taito City, Tokyo, Japan｜Kushikatsu Tanaka Ueno 6-chome

It was my last meal on the last day of my trip to Tokyo about a month ago. When I went to Osaka, I went to the Kushikatsu restaurant in Dotonbori because I regretted not being able to try it because the lines were so long. In fact, it was a meal I boldly gave up on in Osaka, thinking that kushikatsu couldn't be delicious, and anything fried was delicious... But you can taste it in Tokyo!! There was a bit of a wait, but we got a table quickly. I went with my child, and they were very welcoming, and it was nice that there was a children's event as well. Of course, I barely spoke Japanese, so I could barely understand it, but they responded kindly. Kushikatsu was also delicious. The price was cheap and there were mostly locals, so it was a great place to enjoy your last night in Japan. The staff were all friendly and it was a pleasant meal. The kushikatsu was delicious, but surprisingly the udon was also delicious.

Excerpt from the diary for the day of May 13, 2023. I arrived at Ueno Station. I went to a bar in Ameyoko with a friend I had met. A literal three-cup rush. Look at how much you drink. admire. As soon as the mud and sand stopped falling. Ladders to Kushikatsu Tanaka. I found out that there was sake that had been mixed with gari, and watched my friend gulp it down again. Human beings can drink this much alcohol. If you roll a double in Chinchirorin at a store event, you'll get a free drink. Odd numbers are half price. Even numbers are double the amount and double the amount!　It's the number three. Everyone has a lot of fun. I'm impressed that humans can have so much fun with alcohol and dice. If you think about it, elections are a festival in every country. It may be rude, but you can imagine how much adrenaline you would get if you participated in Fuji Rock or the Ukraine War. As I was admiring this, I heard authentic festival music coming from outside the store. It was the Shitaya Festival. I drank until late at night, and, perhaps because of my age, I found it troublesome to move.I thought, ``The weather and temperature are perfect for camping out in the wild,'' and I remembered camping out in front of Kyoto Station a long time ago, so I called a 1,980 yen capsule hotel in front of Ueno Station. Then it was full. Then, wandering around Tokyo late at night like an earthbound ghost, I headed towards Kanda. After talking for about 10 minutes about Gundam, Fist of the North Star, Made in Abyss, and Madoka Magica with a girl from an anime cafe where elixirs cost 3,000 yen a pop, I arrived at an internet cafe in Kanda that I used to frequent. When I walked along the 53 stations of the Tokaido road from Kyoto to Tokyo, I decided, ``I'll never use Netcafe again!'' However, as soon as I entered my private room, I fell into a deep sleep like mud melting before I could turn off the light. .

I went to Kushikatsu Tanaka Ueno 6-chome branch! It was on TV every day, so I got curious and looked in. There were still seats available, so I went in. Within 10 minutes, both the outside and the second floor were filled with students, groups, and couples. When I asked the staff, she said it was the busiest this month. There are also many couples, and people of all ages, from young people to office workers, come here. The service was very good, as the staff would talk to me when I was looking at the menu, talk to me when I was about to run out of drinks, and politely tell me about recommended products. The most important thing, the skewers, are of course freshly fried and crispy. The staff recommended the seasoned egg kushikatsu, which is not on the menu, and it was innovative and delicious. There are many other interesting menu items so I will come again! Thank you for the meal.
