Akatsuka's Seafood ``Gen'' is a comfortable bar where you'll want to drink forever.

Wabi-sabi of tea was popularized by Sen no Rikyu. Rikyu's ``Taian'' is no different, and the vase in the tea room is filled with flowers picked from the garden or the mountains every day. The basic concept is "invisible hospitality." By setting up fresh flowers long before you start making tea for your guests, today's content conveys your ``will'' to warmly welcome today's new meeting. If you put the same flowers as yesterday, you can't help but think that you are not paying attention to the occasion. It is not the hospitality of visible movements or words. I'm exaggerating, but in a similar way to this, I get the sense that a restaurant that posts its purchases and dishes on social media every day has a spirit of trying to provide fresh hospitality every day. Of course, shops that offer surprises and mysteries will not give advance notice. However, it is also true that the store's feelings can be conveyed through daily social media posts. The common denominator is how kind they are to their guests. That's the reason why I visited this store. For me, Akatsuka is a rare area that I only visit once every three years, but I also saw the master posting about it almost every day on a certain SNS, and I thought, oh, are there new edamame in stock today? It gave me hope. This kind of method has remained unchanged in both the Momoyama and Reiwa eras and opens the hearts of customers. I don't know about usual, but tonight is a master's one surgery. He is a friendly young master who seems to be as attentive as you might imagine. He accurately conveyed his recommendations for tonight. Of course I'll take it. Both the counter and the kotatsu-style seating area are comfortable. The horigotatsu tatami room has open sides so you can sit with your shoes on, and it's designed to make it easy for everyone to get out when someone needs to go to the bathroom. This is hospitality. Although it is not written on the menu, they also have some Japanese sake. Tonight at "Takashimizu". I looked at the label, but forgot the inscription. “Katsuo Sashimi” ¥500 This is tonight's recommendation. 500 yen for 5 slices. This is fresh and delicious bonito. "Thick-sliced ham and egg" ¥480 It's more like spam than thick-sliced ham. Lettuce goes well with ham and eggs. The egg yolk is almost raw. It's not half-boiled, so as soon as you insert your chopsticks, the yolk comes out. Scoop this with ham and eat. Master, you're good at frying eggs. And sake goes well with fried eggs, no problem. ``Asparagus meat roll'' ¥580 A long asparagus meat roll. Scissors are provided together. First, use scissors to cut it into bite-sized pieces. I like this hardship. It tastes better and I appreciate it more. Tender asparagus and pork belly. It's a good balance. There is also a wide selection of Seafood such as raw oysters and red shrimp sashimi, as well as fried foods. All are attractive offerings. However, speaking of greed, when you think of this store, there may be something that makes you think of this. It could be anything from the type of alcohol, service items, or unique menu items. Aaah, it's gone! There was a one-drink coupon! I should have used it...uh... The master has a comfortable stance that is neither too far nor too far away. It's a cozy bar. Thank you for the meal.
