I love soba and Niigata being a region specializing in soba, you can bet that I stuffed myself full of soba while there. Kojimaya is a chain-style restaurant in Niigata that is known for their variety of soba dishes, including Niigata’s iconic “Hegi Soba“, which I tried in their famous station branch. I spent a […]
Another local specialty of Niigata was this ‘clear ramen’. It seems that while you can only get this style of ramen in Niigata, it’s not specifically a ‘famous’ dish of Niigata, just something that they make there. Nevertheless, despite not being a huge ramen fan, I wanted to give it a go and found this […]
This place was highly recommended online when I was searching a good place to try Niigata’s specialty ‘hegi soba’. It’s a bonus that it’s located right by Niigata station as well, so I could easily drop by and have it for lunch. The hardest part was navigating the CoCoLo building that it is inside of […]
Walked past this shop with a friend while we were shopping in the area and almost missed it but I got a glimpse of their menu outside and we were surprised to find such a cute cafe that we never noticed until now. The burgers here are at a reasonable price considering how generous the […]
This restaurant was literally just around the corner from the hotel I stayed at. I noticed it mostly because of the very unusual name and looked it up online and was surprised to see it was a highly rated yakiniku restaurant. It’s very big inside but apparently still has a wait time during dinner. The […]
I’ve visited Miyazakikan twice so far and both times were very enjoyable and Miyazakikan is definitely making my list of recommended places to go in Osaka, especially if you’re craving good japanese steak. The prices here are also very worth it for the amount of food you get. Their menu is all course meals, and […]
This was one of many recommended restaurants in Yanagawa for Unagi. As I visited Yanagawa with a discounted set of tickets that covered my train rides, boat ride and food, I was given a few different restaurants around the town to choose from that would be covered. After walking a bit down the road of […]
Recommended by a friend, I visited this izakaya for the first time while accompanying a group of friends who went to climb Mt Fuji the next day. The shop itself was quite small, as you can see from the picture above that was the entirety of the restaurant, with another 2 tables placed outside. In […]
Sendai is famous for beef tongue, and while looking up places on where to eat it I found that Rikyu was a famous chain store that specialized in beef tongue! I tried 2 different Rikyu restaurants during my trip to Sendai, one which is mapped below and another inside Sendai Station. The first time I […]
Recommended by locals, I found out via Google that Shiosai served both local delicacies of Kagoshima, which was a great chance for me since I had been having a lack of appetite after getting some serious motion sickness spending the night on a cargo ship. The 2 local specialties of Kagoshima/Yakushima were Kame no Te […]
