Izakaya “Oiri-tei” 4. Yakiyaki Iron Plate Grill “Himawari Ichibancho Train Street Store”   1. JR Hotel Clement Uwajima “Sirene” I had breakfast at the restaurant “Sirene” of “JR Hotel Clement Uwajima” which was near the hotel where I was staying on April 20th (Wednesday). We can eat Uwajima’s unique meals using local ingredients such as “Uwajima Tai-meshi”, “Kama-age shirasu (straight-from-the-pot young sardine which is freshly boiled) “, “Grilled dried local fish”, and “local vegetables” since the morning at “Sirene”. Even those people who are not staying at JR Hotel Clement Uwajima can have breakfast at “Sirene”. I had “Tai-meshi Breakfast Set” (Yen 1,800 including tax) that I hadn’t eaten since I came to Uwajima. “Uwajima Tai-meshi” is the “100 selections of local cuisine” in Ehime prefecture selected by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. “Uwajima Tai-meshi” is a dish of red sea bream sashimi caught in the Uwa Sea, mixed with soy sauce, raw eggs, seaweed, etc. over rice.

September itinerary in Japan Day 1 (Miyagi Day 1 Meal edition)

September itinerary in Japan Day 1 (Miyagi Day 1 Meal edition) (Sunday, September 26)   Table of contents Lunch Snack Dinner   Lunch This time, I ate “Gyutan-yaki“, which is a “Local dishes loved by the nation”, for lunch. Since I arrived at Sendai station early, I went around the sightseeing spots at “Loople Sendai” first, got off at Jozenji-dori City Hall, and ate Gyutan-yaki set meal (beef tongue set meal) at the nearby “Umami Tasuke”. “Umami Tasuke” is the origin of Gyutan-yaki, and even now, beef tongue is grilled over charcoal. The charcoal-grilled firepower is strong, so it will be ready within 5 minutes of ordering. I think it’s worth just looking at the beef tongue chunks at the counter. It was about the size of a tire. Of course, the taste of beef tongue was delicious. I’ve been to Sendai several times, but it was a restaurant I’ve never been to. This is a recommended restaurant. I would like to revisit. https://www.maff.go.jp/j/nousin/kouryu/kyodo_ryouri/attach/pdf/190131-6.pdf   Snack For dessert, I ate “Zunda mochi” at “Tea-dokoro Aoba Namiki Tamazawa” (S-PAL Sendai store main building B1F, Sendai station basement). Of course, “Zunda mochi” is a local dish of Miyagi prefecture. It is aread moreSeptember itinerary in Japan Day 1 (Miyagi Day 1 Meal edition)
